Still no sign of Cartman

I went out to the office and walked the valley a little -- where her mom usually goes. Even around the buildings where kittens hide, there wasn't any sign of her. It was getting dark when we got there - but there was no sign of her at all, no movement, no noise.

I can sound a lot like a momma cat if I try - and most of the kittens have come to it in the past. When Radar was lost in the woodpile, I called him to where I could see him and then picked him out of the ditch. This time, all I got was a worried Mouse cat saying 'Did you find her? Did you hear her?' She came running up to me within two minutes. With a mommy cat like that on the job -- if Cartman was anywhere near the office, she'd have been found already.

1. Her mom doesn't know where she went.
2. Her mom is still looking for her after a day and a half.

Getting Squint's things ready for the early morning drive. There will be plenty of documentation about Squint's big day. Jeanne's package arrived with the mail today, and that did make me feel better. She sent some really nice things, and I'll try to get a good photo tomorrow! Thank you Jeanne!

I didn't let myself get attached to Cartman, like I had Radar - but I'm still upset about it. Poor pretty striped girl. Poor momma cat Mouse. :o(
