Thank you for asking. unfortunately I did not get home at lunch today (I saw a dog loose in the bank parking lot and spent my lunch hour unsuccessfully chasing him), so I haven't seen him since the am and am getting anxious to get home. He just kind of flops down next to me and lays stretched out and breathes heavily.He looks at me and cries. I wake up in the middle of the night to check to see if he is still there. He runs out in the main part of the house, which I don't like because then he eats the clumping litter. I'm supposed to go to the shelter tomorrow night to clean, but I told them I needed to be with him instead.
