Kat kept running from window to window and meowing at the door so I knew something was wrong. I went outside behind our house and called for Mouse. He replied with his little squeaky meow and we were instantly reunited!!! What a relief!!
Thank you EVERYONE for your concern! You are ALL wonderful neighbors and friends.
It will take a while to get Mouse clean again. His little white paws aren't very white right now. He has evidently seen some miles during his adventure. No wounds but plenty of dirt. LOL It's sooooo good to have him home again safe and sound.
