Local jackasses

Seems that the kid leaving messages about our cat was making up stories to amuse himself and his friends. Rachal spent some time this afternoon being told that Lav had been shot and left floating in the pool. No, wait, Lav had made it down to Houston and was about to die from exhaustion. No, wait...

When Rachal offered to send them a check to cover the expense of shipping us her body, the kids on the other end got really excited, until she asked for an address to write on the envelope. Then they hung up.

We're no closer to finding Lav than we were, and I'm fantasizing about punching a child in the face.

Yes, theoretically. The phone number lookups we've run haven't been definitive, but I didn't put missing cat posters up very far from the house, and I'm pretty sure if I started knocking on doors asking for this kid, I'd come across his family in pretty short order. I'm just not sure doing so would put us any closer to getting Lav back alive, so I may leave it alone.
