May be the missing cat? 2020-03-18 - Downtown Columbia, KY - Photo by Linda Waggener, ColumbiaMagazine.com. This may be the missing cat reported earlier this week. He showed up in the fields at the bottom of the Hurt Street hill in Columbia where the horses graze. He came toward my cat's food dishes and I attempted to give him food - he was licking his lips to appear hungry - but he raced away when I got close. - LW EVENING UPDATE: Alas, this is not the missing cat - at least not the one that was reported earlier this week. The missing cat has a bob tail. So if anyone sees a cat looking very much like this one, with a bob tail, please text or call 270-403-0017.
