A Happy Ending

Kai is home.

Thank you to everyone for your support and help. Just a few hours after I arrived home to Chicago this morning, Andrea called with the good news that Kai had been found, thanks to a post on CraigsList and an animal-loving neighbor. Poor guy was lost in their neighborhood, but he made it through a tough Michigan snow storm. His paws are in bad shape, and he's a bit skittish and exhausted, but he's home.

Happy, happy ending. Now everyone go hug their pet. And if you don't have a pet, do yourself a favor and get one. They're the best.

    oh thank HEAVEN! I read your first post and frankly tried to forget about it, since I am nowhere nearby and couldn't really help. But I'll pat myself on the back for thinking safe, warm thoughts. :)

    Pets are so wonderful. And stylish!

    Awe so happy that he is ok and safe! My heart dropped to my stomach when I saw your first post as this is always a fear for my guy. This is a great reminder to us all to always keep tags with contact info and to get your pet micro-chipped.

    So great to hear! He is a cutie and I'm sure is thrilled to be back with his family.

    This warms my heart! I am so glad the pup is safe and sound... I'm in Alabama, but when I saw your post the other day I wanted to make the trip up north to help search! It's so horrible to have a lost pet, so happy he's okay!

    Glad he's back with his mommy and daddy! My fiance and I had our cat run away a few years ago and she never came back. It was a heart wrenching experience. So I'm always happy to hear when pets are found safe and sound.

    So glad to hear a happy ending. We had something similar happen last year. I found out that dogs cannot find their way home with snow on the ground! Ours was gone 5 days and it is so heartwrenching. We are glad to have ours back.

    That's amazing news!! I've had the same thing happen to me and it is the most horrifying experience in the world! So glad a sweet neighbor was able to get him back home :)

    We are so glad that Kai is home! There is nothing worse than that feeling of a pet lost...but now he's safe and sound.

    Pets are the best, we agree!
