    That lost frog note is sad.

    I'm now paranoid and check on Turtle (yes, that's his name, I didn't name him, I stole him from my ex) incessantly. And keep his bedroom door closed when I'm not in there (his bedroom is also my music studio).

    ShlupQuack: I'm sorry you weren't able to find your turtle; that's awful. I'm glad those little a-holes gave you back your bunny.

    Rye: what's your frog's name?

    Many years ago, when I still had a dog, he one day ran away from home and didn't come back for hours. He finally and luckily came back, though. He just walked in through the open door looking all aloof and cool, while I was starting to have a panic attack.

    I've never lost a pet (except to death by old age) but when our current dog was a puppy she escaped once (stupid BT guy left the door open) and I chased her for ages. Eventually I gave up and went home and she came back ten minutes later acting as if nothing happened.

    His name is Buddha, because African Dwarf Frogs are privy to just floating in the water in a kind of zen pose. It's so cool.

    When Jinx was just a tiny, tiny new kitten he disappeared one day. We hunted high and low and could not find him, so we eventually thought he had got out the front door at some point. We looked all around outside, called his name, rattled cat food...

    And then when I was walking to get a drink from the kitchen I heard the faintest noise, and looked again behind a cupboard we'd already searched behind. But we hadn't looked under it. He had managed to stick his head under it in such a way that he couldn't get it out, and nor could he open his mouth to meow or anything.

    Silly cat is silly.

    Silly Jinx!

    That reminds me of my ex-roomie's cat Buba. My roomie had moved out and I had to take care of Buba for several months. One day when I got home from work I heard his distinctive strange meow coming from the kitchen every five minutes or so . . . but I looked everywhere and couldn't find him. I looked in all the cupboards and such . . . nowhere. And he would never meow when I was actually IN the kitchen, so it was difficult to pinpoint where exactly he was. But finally he did.

    He was all the way up on top of these cupboards that were attached to the wall above the refrigerator with only about a foot's clearance from the ceiling. Because of the angle, it was impossible to see him up there, but when I climbed up on the stove, there he was. Silly Buba!

    Every time my dad lets out my dog I flip out almost to the point of rage because he never leashes him up.

    And it's not like the dog will run away, he always comes back. But still! That's IRRESPONSIBLE

    I'm glad you found mr.turtle!


    Never lost a pet..But I did have the neighbor's adolescent collie follow me all the way to my elementary school decades ago...


    My mom came over and picked the dog up and kept it until they returned from work.

    Once Monty one of my cats disappeared overnight. We searched everywhere in the house believing he couldn't get out, due to foxes in the area we had no cat flap ect and no one had left the house in the night. Eventually when I went to work thoroughly depressed I opened the front door and heard his distinctive meowing at me I looked round and hiding under a bush, scared stiffless was Monty I was so happy I found him, so I told him off for going out. He'd climbed on to the windowsill near the open bedroom window in my sisters room and fallen out.
