“Mabel padded in and out of my dreams and whenever I woke up the bed was so cold and empty without her. I had another search of the house when I got up. ‘I’ve had a good look myself,’ said Gran. ‘There’s no sign of her.’ ‘Let’s open her tin of Whiskas and bang the tin opener about a bit. That always makes her come,’ I said desperately. Gran opened the tin. She banged the tin opener lots of times. So did I. We both called for Mabel. But Mabel didn’t come. Grandad had another good look when he wen...t to get the newspapers. No luck. ‘Perhaps she’s been kidnapped!’ I said. ‘Darling, nobody would want an old cat like Mabel,’ said Gran. ‘I want her,’ I said, and I cried again. I cried so much that Gran and Grandad got really worried. ‘Do try and stop, Verity. You’ll make yourself ill,’ said Gran. ‘Come on, now, you’re going to be late for school.’ ‘Maybe she’s not in a fit state for school?’ said Grandad. ‘No, I’m not in a fit state at all,’ I sobbed, hoping that I’d be able to stay off and search for Mabel.MoreLessRead More Read Less
