Dear all
I just wanted to thank you all for all your prayers and support for Georgie--it worked!!!
I got this email from Nancy today! (Of course, I asked for the "story" and that's in the 2nd email.)
So good to hear this news--and I know you'd all want to hear it too.

After nearly a week of you-know-what for Steve and I Georgie was found safe and sound late Saturday night I'm sparing the details but if anyone wants the story, let me know. He is recouping from his adventure. He's thinner (and smaller than I remembered) but overall looks good and appears healthy. We are watching him closely and loving him tons. He appears to have a better appreciation for his family. We are getting lots of kisses and he is more vocal now. I took yesterday off just to love him!!
Thanks everyone for your thoughts, prayers and support during this difficult time.
=00Here's the story...
To make a long story short, we got a call on Saturday that led us near St. George's church (can you believe?). It wasn't him but my husband had a feeling. Late that night (around 9:30) after passing out flyers and looking for him we went home. My husband went to water our garden and I decided to go back and sit on the patio. I had been putting food out and the food in the front and back were nearly empty. We decided to move the food so we could see out our bedroom window to see who was eating it. As soon as I did, we heard a meow coming from the dark sidewalk. I wasn't sure if it was Georgie or not but I got down on my knees and called him. He came close and I tried to grab him but he ran off. He didn't go very far and howled/meowed. I called him again and jingled his food. He came close. I picked him up. I handed him off to my husband (who stated he wasn't go to let him go for his life) and ran to the front to get his carrier. We shoved him in it and then took him to the front to see if it was him. After confirming certain details, we realized it was indeed our Georgie and we jumped up/down and hugged each other and realized what a blessing we received.
We went to St. George's church Sunday morning. My husband didn't have a dry eye the entire mass.
