It was now night time and I was finally beginning to think I'd never see her again when all of a sudden my step-dad opens the door and shadow runs up the stairs! I was overjoyed at this and with a thorough inspection of her didn't see any major damage done! Does any other pet owners in TL have a similar scary moment in their life?  | ||

One time I was walking my Siberian Husky, (Jack)... We're walking along the side of a small street in my neighbourhood, when he sees a squirrel at the other side of the street. Naturally, he decides the correct move here is to run at the squirrel despite him being on a leash. Just as he darts across the road, a car is driving up behind us (which he doesn't see). I yanked him back as hard as I could when i saw that he was about to bolt in front of this car. I pulled him so hard he went spinning in the air a bit lol and just grazed the side of the car. Had he ran at the squirrel a split second earlier, or I pulled him back a split second later, he would have been toast. | ||

My current dog left for a while after my dad smacked her for ripping our carpet up, it was snowing out so I was scared she wouldn't be able to find her way back. Luckily they have to come back cause they know who gives them food and shelter :D | ||

Few months ago my roomate let my indoor-only cat out. I was freaking, but luckily he was hiding behind a planter only a few feet from the apartment, scared as hell. He definitely prefers the food, water, and warmth. | ||

Second one was where I took the dog onto the fields at the edge of town so she can run around some. Theres a really evil bull mastiff type thing that used to go apeshit from one of the houses (which were pretty far away) One day the bull mastiff burrowed under the fence and came at my dog. My dog is standing there tongue out, ears up, dumb grin with tail wagging and this thing is approaching at breakneck speed with murder on its mind. Last second my dog realises the other dog doesn't want to be best pals, theres a five second tussle and the other dog starts running for its life and burrows back under the fence with my dog trying to tear it a new arse. I was so proud! (I don't condone animal violence etc but it was gratifying to see that while my dog doesn't start shit, she can certainly deal with it if it comes her way) But yeah, seeing pets in bad situations is pretty scary. | ||

Needless to say after a few days (which he ate, drank, etc during) we managed to catch him, haha. Oh, now that I think of it we had one with one of our cats. Our cats are 100% indoor cats, but sometimes we would put them in a harness and take them out on our deck/run around our backyard, etc. Well one day my Dad was out with one of them in the backyard without the harness, and a squirrel ran by on top of the 6'~ fence, in which my cat instantly jumped onto and started hoofing 'er towards the squirrel. Luckily my Dad was able to quickly run over and grab him before he got out of reach, otherwise who knows what would have happened. Good to hear your dog was o.k. though!  | ||

We searched everywhere for him, and spent all day combing the streets of our city to find him. We told all our friends but eventually we had to one of our prior engagements very sad and discouraged. I was scared to death and went to an important business meeting with tears in my eyes. When we got home we heard weird sounds coming from our roof. Sure enough, we went upstairs to find that my mom had locked him on the balcony! x.x | ||

He was the sort of cat who would have come to cuddle with me or would have at least cleaned himself. I went to say hi and noticed his face was all swollen and his eye wasn't opening. He was oozing that stuff that cats ooze. I told my boyfriend and he told his parents who promptly took him to the vet. They think he was hit by a car or tossed around by some animal. We'll never know. Least he's still my bud! | ||

There's another time when we thought our dog ran away. We have a Husky whom, when she escapes the backyard, will run. Just fucking run. It was always a hassle to get her back in the house (she's probably too old to run very far now). But one time she got away, and we didn't notice until we couldn't find her in the house, backyard, wherever. We searched for hours, until it got dark and couldn't see anymore. We though we had lost her for good. Turns out, somehow she had made it onto the freeway (and got hit by a car sometime during her "adventure". Her paw was injured). But some nice guy must have seen her and managed to get her in his car. He brought her to the vet and luckily she's chipped so we got her back the next day. But we thought that we would never see her again. Pretty scary. | ||

When we got to the hotel we were unloading our bags from the car and I had let my dog out to run around for a bit. My mouse was in the car on the backseat ( I usually just hold her and she sleeps in my lap) and I forgot to put her back in her cage and lock her up. When I came back I saw my dog in the back of the car and ran over to see what she was doing and she was sitting there snapping her jaws on something golden. Naturally I screamed and was breaking down to a puddle of tears. About 30 seconds later my mom saw my mouse on the backseat all fine and dandy, and guess what my dog was eating? A McDonalds hamburger I didn't finish eating... My mom coulnd't stop laughing at me... | ||
