The owner of a missing cat is asking for help. My baby has been missing for over a month now, and I want him back so badly, said Mrs. Brown, a 56-year-old woman. Mrs. Brown lives by herself in a trailer park near Clovis. She said that Clyde, her 7-year-old cat, didnt come home for dinner more than a month ago. The next morning he didnt appear for breakfast either. After Clyde missed an extra-special lunch, she called the police.
When the policeman asked her to describe Clyde, she told him that Clyde had beautiful green eyes, had all his teeth but was missing half of his left ear, and was seven years old and completely white. She then told the officer that Clyde was about a foot high.
A bell went off. Is Clyde your child or your pet? the officer suspiciously asked. Well, hes my cat, of course, Mrs. Brown replied. Lady, youre supposed to report missing PERSONS, not missing CATS, said the irritated policeman. Well, who can I report this to? she asked. You cant. You have to ask around your neighborhood or put up flyers, replied the officer.
