Its weird having feelings for a cat. I've never especially been a cat lover. I've always found their aloofness and timidness quite off putting. I prefer dogs, who obey you and do as you say, an if they don't you can tie them up and leave them in the rain. They still love you afterwards.
Despite this. I was extremely worried that our cat Luke Skywalker who had only one hour of being outside for the first time in three months under his belt, had not been seen since the hailstorm.
Luke is a timid cat at best. If you sneeze he'll run a mile. Kier was also upset about Skywalkers disappearance. Although our Luke is all white, the similarities between him and the original Luke Skywalker end there. There is no way that Obi Wan Kenobi would select our Luke to take out the Death Star. Quite frankly he's not up to it.
I pondered all of this whilst walking around the site making kissing noises to try and attract the cat. Of course the rest of the site was completely oblivious to this, as they didn't know the cat was missing. It was just me and these noises with an occasional outreaching of my hand. I received a few looks of concern from other campers.
After a three rigorous intense searches I had pretty much given up on ever seeing Luke again. The emotional experience I felt was peculiar, I didn't really realised I cared so much for Luke. He was part of our little family though, and after being couped up in the pub for three months we knew how much he would have enjoyed life here. Five hours had passed and still no sign.
I spent a couple of hours researching cat psychology online. There were some crazy miraculous stories of survival and cats turning up hundreds of miles away, it made me realise how much cats mean to people and why. Its all a little strange really.

I had to leave to go to work about six o clock. Luke had been missing for 5 hours. We were all really worried!
