Rita in a spinal twist (Kayte Young)
This is the last chapter of our 4-part saga about the lengths to which a person will go when their cat is missing. If you missed them, here are Chapters One, Two, and Three. (You can also find them in our podcast feed.)
At the beginning of this chapter, it’s getting to be winter, and Rita still hasn’t been found. The odds of her surviving another few months are dropping with the temperature. Kayte feels increasingly desperate. Is Rita still alive out there? Could that be her, the cat people have been seeing in the neighborhood near where Rita got lost? Or is it, as Kayte suspects, another imposter? How does Kayte really feel about that carrier that fell apart so many months ago, letting Rita escape? All those questions will, at last, be answered, in Rita’s Village, this final chapter of The Third Time Rita Left.
