As some of you have heard by now, Daniel and I were in a very bad car wreck on Sunday night. A van ran a stop sign and totaled D’s car as a result. Moo was in the car and was left miraculously unharmed, but ran away from the scene, terrified. More details here. She has no microchip nor tags on her.
We’ve been checking shelter websites and posting fliers all over the neighborhood but it’s not enough – the city of Hollywood has something called the Hollywood Clean Team that’s in charge of removing postings from major streets and intersections and they seem to think our little fliers are an eyesore.
Others seem to think it’s a great idea to call me at 7:30 am and say they found my dog, then hang up while their buddies laugh hysterically in the background. People are incredibly fucking cruel and I’m starting to feel a little sick every time my phone rings.
I know that tons of you have re-posted my call for help online – the amount of compassion and concern Moo’s receiving is the only encouraging thing that’s come of this ordeal. Thank you all so, so much.
This case requires physical action from those of you in Los Angeles. Please, print a stack of these posters and tape/staple them to light and electric posts when you can. D and I are doing as much as possible but are also injured and therefore slow.
My hope is that someone has taken Moo in and will return her to me when they see how badly she is missed. Thank you all again and please send all kinds of positive thoughts her way!
Well, I’m on the wrong coast to actually do anything, but I am sending much positive thought at both you and Moo. I really hope you fine her!
Dear zoetica,
I am such a computer nit wit. I had not, hitherto, noticed, when you first mailed me, that you had attached a link to this and coilhouse. I now know that you are a woman.
I am very sorry to hear about your dog and sincerely hope you find it soon. As you know, if you have received my cd, I LOVE DOGS.
My thoughts are with you

Hey, I just wanted to wish you good luck with finding Moo.
How sucky, madame.
I’m sending positive brain waves your way from SF.

I am so, SO sorry about your missing dog… I know I would be devastated if anything happened to my puddin’. I am in NY, + therefore not of much use to you, but I am sending you (and Moo) lots of positive energy.

And then I’m still asked sometimes why I love animals better than most human beings. People can be such bastards sometimes.
All the luck in the world finding Moo, Zoe. I can’t be of any real help because I don’t even live in the US, but still – my thoughts are with you. I hope you’ll get good news very soon.
another possibilty is small dogs or cats that are people friendly are very easy to take in as pets so it could have a new home
yeah, it’s over a year later, and i’m new to all of this. but, i’m very sorry for your loss :(
i almost legit cried while reading this. ngl.
