It has been brought to my attention the past few days that my cat, Leia, has gone missing. According to my parents and sister, they haven’t seen Leia all week. The last time I can honestly say I saw her was last Saturday when Josh and Renee were over. However, I don’t recall whether I’ve seen her since then because I haven’t been home enough to really notice (due to school, work, and boyfriend). So because I haven’t noticed, it hasn’t sunk in that maybe Leia is in fact gone. Before he so-called ‘disappearance’ it seemed to me that she always wanted to be outside, like she’d come in to eat her food and the second she was done, she’d want out as opposed to taking a cat-nap in my room like she usually did.

The thing is, if she is in fact gone, I am not that upset about it as I was with my old kitten Katie. The difference between Leia and Katie is that Katie I raised from a kitten whereas Leia I got as a cat; therefore Katie developed her own personality and closeness with my family. When I got Leia, she was abandoned on the side of the road so she had a hard time opening up to us and was very anti-social. In other words, she wasn’t the same as Katie and I could tell that as much as I love Leia, I miss the closeness (so does the family) that I had with Katie.

So is it selfish of me to want to get a new kitten? I miss having a little fuzzy something that I can cuddle with, be loved by, and tell all my most precious secrets to. I miss waking up in the morning and having a warm kitty sleeping at my feet, or better yet, on the pillow next to me.
