aww, I'm relieved he is back! I love cats, and I am glad this story has a happy ending. I used to have the same kind of cat as Wally...
His name was Spaz and he was such a nice cat. He left one day though and never came home, but he was always adventerous.
My current cat, Kaede, I can not bear to leave when I have to go away. I always have to face traveling, and I wish me and my cat could go on the plane together. But I wouldn't want to put my cat through that anyway. Luckily I am not an animal person and I only love cats and horses...and tigers.
