Magic is Missing
We can’t find Magic. We’ve looked everywhere in the house but we are worried that she got out last night while we weren’t looking. If she’s been out all night she’s probably laying low and scared. I looked around the outside of the house, and Stephanie went out to check the property too. As you…
