There were a couple of leads, but they didn&#8217;t pan out.  DeeAnn and I also <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/sparCKL\/status\/217447904342851584\">put up some flyers<\/a> around the neighborhood later.  Those haven&#8217;t generated any response either.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Lady Grey&#8221; stayed with Darla for two months, but her apartment complex doesn&#8217;t actually allow pets, and they do threaten periodic inspections.  DeeAnn also felt some responsibility for kitty, so on August 23rd, she took up residence in our guest bathroom.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/2.bp.blogspot.com\/-P4O4K9Hdqhc\/UEhSc3l8eTI\/AAAAAAABfxc\/91yG5anHdgw\/s1600\/P1060927.JPG\" style=\"margin-left:1em; margin-right:1em\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" border=\"0\" height=\"320\" width=\"256\" src=\"http:\/\/2.bp.blogspot.com\/-P4O4K9Hdqhc\/UEhSc3l8eTI\/AAAAAAABfxc\/91yG5anHdgw\/s320\/P1060927.JPG\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>Of course, since <a href=\"http:\/\/snout.org\/foodrobot\">we have the technology<\/a>, we set up a webcam in Lady Grey&#8217;s room to make sure she&#8217;s doing okay.
