"The three of us - my wife, Truffle and I - all miss Felix dreadfully. It is heartbreaking that, after investing so much time, care and attention, she seems to have simply vanished; not knowing for sure is the worst part. PLEASE keep a look out and let us know if you see her!
Felix was barely three weeks old when she was rescued from being set upon by other cats in Ayios Nikolaos, Cyprus. Her chin had been torn from lip to throat and her right eye was infected. She was patched up, fed and watered and - about a week later - was passed to us to look after. In the coming weeks, though, Felix grew from strength to strength and quickly established herself as boss! Whenever taking Truffle out for a walk, Felix would follow; when she was just four months old, she followed us for a full 3km walk through the bundu! She was the scourge of Dhekelia as far as dogs were concerned: she would frequently be seen or heard to have seen off a dog much larger than herself! We started the process of building her pet passport so that she could travel back to the UK with us, but things went awry: my wife was recalled six months early and there were still three post blood test months to go before Felix would be allowed to travel. The two pets had become inseparable and we felt it unfair to put our beloved cat into quarantine, so I was duly installed in a studio apartment in Liopetri with Truffle and Felix to look after me! Felix quickly settled into her new surroundings (her fifth move since rescue!) and was loved by all who met or saw her. Three months eventually passed and her passport came into date. Apart from leaving late for the airport because the little blighter was out on the razzle, the flight back to the UK passed uneventfully. Immigration was a painfully long and expensive process but, eventually, we were able to head off to our new home in Northwood. Both pets soon settled in and - very quickly - Felix was itching to explore. Again, she commanded the local area and drew admiring comments from all quarters. Then, one evening - some six seeks after arrival, she darted out the door as a supper guest was leaving...and we haven't seen her since. |
