Lonely

This poor cat is missing his friend.   He now tends to hide away,  the children want to pick him up and he just want to be left alone.   We do try and tell them to leave him alone.  Him and his friend were always together.  They played together, ate together and slept together.  This one has always been quite shy, now we have to go and find him to feed him.  Last night when we were heading out we heard him calling to us.  Unfortunately I had been a bit under the weather during the day and didn't swim, so the cat missed out on his afternoon feed.  When we arrived home he was still waiting, so we went back to our apartment and got his food.  Once back in the car park we called to him and he appeared.  He was hungry.   We know that another friend feeds him in the evening, but he had obviously missed out on a meal so was still hungry.  We are hoping that his black friend will be home soon.
