Still Missing, Part 2
These are some of the last
pictures I have of the Bux (aka.Tiger Buxton, or just Buxton). My job is
partially defined by a very nomadic lifestyle, and I am finishing up a
two year stretch of
being gone for most of each year. A friend of mine had been looking
after
him while I was gone, and had been letting him roam - we live in a
lovely tiny home park south of Waldport, OR, set a ways back from the
road. Turns out a tiny home
becomes a little too tiny of a space for an energetic, sociable, and
curious cat.
He
got fit with all of his wanderings! And more independent. And
well-known by the neighbors - generally cat-friendly folks - some of
whom had (almost) gotten used to his
letting himself in to their own tiny homes.
But
then, two weeks before I was supposed to be home for the winter, Buxton
disappeared. While I know all of the bad things that could have
happened to him, I can't help but think he may have hopped into
someone's car without their realizing it, and is now living a happy cat
life with some new person or family. But I miss my little buddy! He has
been my anchor in my crazy changing world these past few years...
