Missing Sheleata Kanatuna May Still Be in Area

BARNES PLACE, ATLANTA, GA--One-half cup of Iams Less-Active Formula, made with wholesome chicken, was placed on the Porch at Flamingo Grove last night for the missing Sheleata Kanatuna. At sunrise, much of the food had been eaten.

A bowl check at 2:30 a.m. and again at 5:30 a.m. had revealed that food was being eaten out of the bowl, a little at the time. Officials at Barnes Place indicated this matches Mr. Kanatuna's eating patterns. They believe had it been a rat or possum or some other unpleasant creature, the entire supply of food would have disappeared at one time. Barnes Place remains hopeful Sheleata will appear on the front porch soon, looking baffled as to why the door wasn't still open.

In the mean time, Mr. Kanatuna has been registered at www.petloss.com to be included in the prayers of those praying for pets with special needs and those who have crossed the Rainbow Bridge. Every Monday, a candle light vigil is conducted around the world at the same time (10 p.m. Eastern) as those who grieve for their ill pets and pets who have passed on come together in a moment of global grief.

Barnes Place officials are not prepared to issue a statement at this time, but hope you will include them and Sheleata Kanatuna in your prayers.

Anyone with information regarding the disappearance of Sheleata Kanatuna, please call Barnes Place immediately. Not only will a reward be offered, but you will be celebrated like never before. Guaranteed.
