I returned from the doctor and she went to lie down with me, she stayed there for several hours and I felt her leave my room around 8:30 p.m.; at 9 p.m. I got up to feed her, but I couldn't find her anymore.
Cloe, who is 10 years old, has been a vital companion for the owner, particularly during difficult times. "She was the one who helped me with my depression problems when my brother died. I have suffered from anxiety and with medical treatment, she was the one who literally helped me live," the owner stated.
Her name is Cloe, she has been with me for 10 years and she became an emotional support cat for sick people in my house, especially for me.
The owner suspects that Cloe, who is terrified of fireworks and thunder, may have been spooked by pyrotechnics from a patronal festival in nearby neighborhoods. This fear could have caused her to run away. Despite extensive searches of the home and surrounding streets, Cloe has not been found.
She is terrified of them, just like she is of thunder; I fear she got so scared that she ran away.
Cloe was last seen in the Lapislรกzuli street area of the La Joya Ixtacala neighborhood. Those with any information about Cloe's whereabouts are asked to contact 5521138640.
That night and early morning I spent looking for her in my house, in all the corners she usually uses for shelter, but she didn't appear. I searched the streets and nothing.
