I always open the door in the morning to let fresh air come inside my home. Both of my cats, Miss L and Miss R are nice at home, not willing to go out much. Sometimes I use a card board to block the door, but yesterday I did not. I even did not check my cats before I went out. I was outside for a whole afternoon, and back home in the evening. Miss R kept moving around me but I did not pay any attention until I found Miss L did not come to ask for dinner at 6 something, almost 7, I started to find her. She was not at home, and it was supposed that she left home this morning when I opened the door and had not come back yet!
At the beginning, I was not sure if Miss L was missing, so I prepared dinner for Miss R so that the food could attract Miss L's attention. However, Miss L had not come out, so I was very sure that she should not be here. The first thing I did was, I talked to Swamiji's doll, "Swamiji, please bring Miss L back."
Then, I started to decide how to find Miss L. She might left few hours till that moment. The most troublesome was someone might bring her away from the building I lived. Therefore, I first left a message on Facebook, and also shared on the page of the society I lived - I did hope the power of internet help to find Miss L back soon.
I went outside to find her. Until found everywhere of 3 floors, I thought it was not a good idea. I believed Miss L was nearby but afraid that she fell down from the building (as I lived on 29th floor), so I went downstairs to ask the security if they had any information. There was no news at all, so after checking around outside the building, I came home and informed my friends who also lived in the same building to see any other things I could do. They suggested to make some notices for finding cat and posted them at the lobby of every floor, so the neighbors could pay attention of it. It was late night already, so I decided to post the notices on the next day.
Miss R was restless that night. She moved around me, meow around, and sometimes laid by a side. She had never been apart from Miss L. She walked to Swamiji's doll, touched HIM by her head, then meow to me. I told her, "Tell Swamiji what you want. HE will listen to you." Miss R wanted me hug her all night long and I told her, "we create a space that Miss L will be back tomorrow. Tomorrow when we get up, she will be back! We should believe that it is POSSIBLE."
I was not worried about losing of Miss L. I was peaceful. What I should do, I kept to complete. I realized that I would leave all my tasks and just go out for finding Miss L if it is the past me. But now, I had another idea: the outside world is too big and it is meaningless for aimless running outside, but sit and think what the next step I should do so I will not waste any time or energy.
Last night, I worked till mid-night. Sometimes I open the door to check if Miss L came back, and I also put some cat food at the door if Miss L would smell the food and recognized the way to home. Meanwhile, I found Swamiji read and gave a LIKE on my message.
For this message, I especially wrote a sentence: Swamiji... please bring her back to Camus... :(
HE says every LIKE HE given is a blessing, just keep going on the task, then it will become the reality - everything is possible, that the logic by human brain cannot explain.
I finished all the task, then slept. I wished Miss L appeared at the door on the next day. Before bed, I told Swamiji again, "Swamiji, please play a magic... please give me a miracle: bring Miss L back to me."
The next morning, I got up as usual, opened the door and found the cat food was still, so I gave it to Miss R as her breakfast, then I started my day. I was not too upset. I thought: even if Miss L was not back, my life should be going on - but I still believe, she would be back that I had no doubt, because only here, Miss L could stay with Swamiji - she loves to have satsang everyday and Swamiji loves her. She should be back and Swamiji must bring her back.
I had mediation in the early morning, then told Swamiji with a relax smile, "Swamiji, please bring Miss L back to me!" Then I watched satsang, and had a planning that after morning satsang, I printed the notice for finding Miss L which was done last night - continued the action for finding Miss L.
When I was watching satsang, a security came to my home to ask about Miss L. She said there was a little cat she saw yesterday. I showed Miss R to her and she said the cat she saw was not so big, so it should not be Miss L. I told her if my cat might go upstairs rooftop where was locked so I could not reach. She promised she would go for a look for me later.
After a while, another security came and asked. She said she settled an incident yesterday: there was a cat trapped at the gate. Firemen came to save it. The security was also a cat lover, so she kept the cat at the rooftop but the cat came down again itself and stayed at a door for waiting home (but that door was not my home), finally it disappeared.
The security showed me a photo and I recognized it is Miss L. The security said there was a Rudurksha on its neck, just like the one I had, so I was very sure that is Miss L! The security suggested me to go every flat on the floor I lived to check someone might bring my cat home.
I went out at once. The first door I knocked, no responded; the next door was opened, but no one responded when I asked outside. Suddenly I got a click: "Now go to the door which is the security mentioned; Miss L is there." I asked myself, "Miss L was there yesterday afternoon. Is she still here now?" Although I had this question, I still went there directly by my intuition.
Knocked the door but no responded. I thought the neighbor should be out for work. When I decided to leave, I heard the meow sound. So I knocked the door again, the meow sound came again! "Is Miss L really inside?" I wondered and kept knocking and shouted her name, then I found the meow sound was not from another side of the door, but very nearby - I found Miss L was trapping at the gate but the cloth of the gate covered her so I could not see her.
Got her finally! I tried to save her from the gate. She was not too frightened but not dare to move. I encourage her to climb up the gate and jumped down there. I also push her to help her climb up and finally Miss L came out the trap successfully! I held her and she stayed, not dare to move. I told her, "Don't worry! We go home now!" Just back home, Miss L meow for Miss R ran out from the wardrobe at once. They comforted each other...
After total 24 hours, losing Miss L was back peacefully by effort and miracle, happy end!
