You should contact the local papers with the story too. We all know how
well you write, it's sure to get in.
When you start canvassing the neighborhood putting up fliers, make up
business size cards with Satch and Beatrix's picture on them. Have your
number, the fact that they are inside only cats, special needs,
how/when/where they went missing, etc. When my Ursula went missing, I
knocked on doors with them, gave them to anyone walking about, put them
on the doors that no one answered. If you put fliers in mailboxes the
mailman may remove them, attach them to doors instead. I'd also think
about staying at your boyfriend's house. Cats travel at night when they
are scared, (although it doesn't sound like the sort of neighborhood you
should go out alone at night in), if they come or call to anyone, it
will be you. Oh, that's another thing, when/if you speak to the animal
communicator, ask her to tell them to meow if they hear your voice.
Cats can be two feet away hiding in a bush and not make a sound. How
big is your boyfriend's dog? Maybe he could go with you, who knows,
maybe he'd be able to sniff them out. I'm so glad they are micro
chipped! Oh honey, you must be going crazy.

Yes, the police know about the cats. The office even asked their
names, which I thought was nice, though in retrospect he was probably
hoping to find a name tag if they were outside of the car.
When I get home (I'll be leaving early from work) - I'll call the chip
companies.
The news - what a great idea, they might love this. I know that I
have pics of Satch able to be printed, but I only have Bea on my
phone, I think. I'll check. If I don't hear in the next couple of
hours, I'll think about calling them (though the idea of ME being on
camera terrifies me, it's not as scary as as not getting them back).
face your fears, face your fears. Especially since all make up was in
the overnight bag also ... ah well, looking as frenzied as I feel
won't be a bad thing.
I'll keep you posted.
