Depressed today but successful at hiding it. Yay me!

I take my uncle to work every Mon, Tues, Thurs, Fri. He has to be there at 4am on those days. So on the drive back, I'm by myself and I just think about too many things that will never change. The biggest thing that depresses me is that we still don't know what happened to my sister's cats. My hope is that someone took them in and is keeping them as a pet because God knows they would be treated better in someone else's house than my sister's. And now, she keeps remarking that she likes only having two cats, that it's great. And I want to SCREAM at her! I miss her cats so much that I cry almost every day. I scan the neighborhood every time I'm driving around with the hope that I would catch a glimpse of them. Deep down, I feel like they're dead and that someone did something awful to them. The not knowing is what depresses me the most. With those cats being gone, my sister's house has become unbearable to be at. If it wasn't for my oldest nephew, I wouldn't go over there at all. I just wish I knew what happened to them.

You'll probably never know what happened to them. So its best to just enjoy the other cats, and other things in life. Though I know that's easier said than done.

Yea, it's the worst, the not knowing. Sometimes I have dreams about finding them and I wake up crying all over again. Thankfully, each "episode" I have, I am able to hide it from everyone and they are only happening 2 to 3 times a week.

@Courtlynn Yea it is. Thankfully after I have my episode, I'm usually good all day. These cats were more like my cats. They would come running down the sidewalk when they saw me and I was the one buying their food. I still buy food for my sister's other two cats cuz I can't stand to see them go hungry.

Little stray creatures will survive unless some predators grab them. Don't worry

They're indoor/outdoor cats and it's been since October now that they've both been gone. One was pure black and the other had a little white. October has always been a bad month for cats that are pure black or mostly black.
