Please keep me updated with any new info.....praying for Abby's safe return.

oh my Goodness! I am so sorry :( ! If I can help just let me know! was she chipped? have you called Steve to see if he had her tattoed or chipped? I know you don't think of her as property but because of your investment in her the Sherrif/ animal control or who which ever agency handle stolen property might be an avenue for a report. another place for posters might be vet's office. Have you talked to Jake about her being gone? was she running from you or to someone? again I am so sorry!

Put some lost posters up at the local stores, etc.

have you called the shelters in your area? Hopefully it is someone who will try to find Abbys owner. Did she have her tags on? How are you and Jake doing? I hope you get Abby back.

Leslie, how are you doing? I was reading a post on Juels site and saw your post that someone stole Abby? : (

Yeah range is a handful by himself, he's constantly bothering me or stepping on my laptop when he's bored. He has a ton of toys, but that's not even enough. I love the Cardigans color, its so edgy.. hahaha!! Crossing my fingers hopefully by next year we can get a Cardigan.

Hi and good afternoon! first off: AWWW did you stage that or do they like each other that much? Hope you are doing well hug Abby for me!

HI there, wondering how you are today? J

Abby is so cute!! We want a Cardigan too, so our Range can have a play mate.

Leslie, Thinking of you, hoping you are alright. Natalie

Hope you are oK, just checking in. Joy

Hi Leslie, how are you doing?

Have you heard from your husband? 30 to me, sounds awful early for a mid-life crisis but I guess any sort of crisis can happen anytime.

Is your job secure? If you lose it, are you in the type of work where you can get another quickly? You are having to deal with sooooo much. I am praying every day for both you and your husband. "What God put together, let no man put asunder (sp?)" I'm pretty sure that is said by the minister and that means your husband can't separate the marriage either. He is trying but we know that God is stronger. God has plans for his life as well.

I really feel for you and think of you often throughout the day. Just getting married, as Jennie says, can create a lot of stress. My husband and I are TOTAL opposites. In fact, so much so, that the minister, at the wedding, based his whole little sermon on this fact. I almost died, I was so embarrassed. I felt we must be freaks that out of all his years of doing pre-marital counselling and weddings that he would pick us out as the most opposite. The opposite thing can be good and bad....at times we clash because we look at everything so differently and at times our strengths compliment each other. There is always hope. Keep your faith and keep praying.
By the way, you mentioned you were Lutheran. It turns out that even though the minister who married us was Baptist and we were married in a Baptist church, that his wife was US Swedish and had a Lutheran background. We didn't find out till after the ceremony that we had been married in an ancient Lutheran tradition. When he was reading our vows, I thought they sounded ancient and very different than what I normally hear. He had an ancient litttle Lutheran book. The whole thing was kinda funny (no reflection on Lutherans);just strange that he never planned to tell us. Another surprise for me during the ceremony!! We have to laugh at all this "marriage" stuff.

Anyway, I am glad you have Abby to comfort you. Hope and pray that things resolve soon so that you don't have to move and give up your cats.

Your husband has been under a lot of stress (not that you aren't !!!!)....giving a kidney to his sister might make him feel more vunerable too, especially where he is still having ramifications from the surgery.

Keep in touch and let me know how things are going. Joy PS I wish I knew what to really say!!!

I am sorry to barge in....saw the posts and I wanted to let u know that marriage AND a new puppy can create a lot of stress...let alone no job..been there, done that. My husband works in manufacturing......lots of unemployment and stress. Its hard out there in the "real world".......its gonna be fine, trust me.

Yes, take care of yourself, stay strong and how wonderful you have Abby to keep you going.

Leslie, Your Welcome! It seems a bit premature for him to walk out after just 2 months! Did he show signs before the wedding? Is he jealous of the new puppy, some guys get jealous of new babies maybe his is the puppy? I know job hunting can be stressful hopefully he will have some luck and find what he is looking for. Hopefully he will realize what he is doing to you. Have you spoken since he has left? I hope he comes to his senses soon. Natalie
