We haven't been able to find her body over 24 hours ago since yesterday, and we've called and called and looked everywhere for her, but nothing, no sign of her anywhere.
The last time we seen her was when she shot off to the bush behind the old house after supposedly getting caught up in the engine compartment after my DB turned off the truck. He had turned it on, pumped the gas pedal to stop it from idling high, when all of a sudden we heard this really loud WHUMP-TING! as the engine was idling down. After he turned it off she ran off as fast as she could to the bush.
Haven't seen hide nor hair of her since. We thought maybe she might come back out in the late evening or afternoon, or even at night, but there was just no sign of her. Even this morning Mom went out looking several times for her, but she turned up with nothing.
She ALWAYS comes when called. But I don't think she'll ever come to our calls again. She probably found a little place in the bush somewhere to lay up and die, the way that the noise from the engine was like it was.
It'd be a real miracle if she did come back alive.
God I miss her.
(P.S., for those of you who don't know, Button is one of two of our barn cats. She's a real sweet thing, shy, but sweet.)
