I called Evelyn this morning at just gone 8AM to remind her that we'll be back on Monday and that we've sent someone round to pick Toby up, but she didn't answer. I called her at just gone 12PM and left a message on her mobile/cell and landline, telling her that we'll speak to her Monday, and that somebody was picking up Toby. No reply.
I just called Kim, who's gone to pick up Toby for us (think I said that part in my other posts), and she was pulling up at Evelyns house. She'll call me when she gets Toby back home.
Tippi, Star and Tiffany are all A-OK. I even heard them barking, hehheh. Evelyn seems to be trying to pretend nothing ever happened. Last night, the last time I talked to Evelyn/Husband Paul, I was accused of threatening physical violence. Kinda made me laugh a little. I was able to talk to Evelyn, but she had changed her story completely.
She first said that Toby did a left and a right then a left, or something along those lines, out of her house. Then, last night, she said the postman tried to catch him with her. We were never told there was a postman. When we get back home, I'll go to Evelyns at around 8AM so that I can ask the postman himself if he saw or tried to catch Toby, just out of curiosity.
I can't understand why she's lying to us.
She keeps telling me she didn't do it on purpose, and doesn't like it when I shout at her. She seems to think she'd be totally calm and collected ("polite" as she said) if somebody let her dog out of their house while she was hundreds of miles away, and let it get hit by a train, but gets so offended when I point out that her dog would look like Toby if she was smooth coated.
I don't know if we'll be able to sue. We're not doing it for the money. We're doing it to make her life terrible. It's an unspoken fact that you take more care of somebody elses property than you do of your own, be it their car or their dog. She wants us to look after her dog in November some time. I wonder if she'll talk about that at all, or just not drop her off.
If we can't sue her, then we'll just make it known what happened.
I literally just got off the phone with Kim again. She picked up Toby, and he was wrapped in a towel and put in a washing basket. Evelyn was there. The fact she's ignoring our calls just adds insult to injury. She said some crap about how she walked up and down all day yesterday looking for him, and that she asked the people at the railway to keep an eye out, which we know is a lie. I talked to the girlfriend of someone (The man who took Toby to Evelyns) who was working on the railway tracks, and she never said anything about her or her boyfriend being alerted of Tobys disappearance until I posted online. She also changed her story again. Yesterday, she told me she'd spent a 'good' half our looking for him. Now, she was looking for him all day.
Don't really know what's going on. I feel a lot better knowing that Toby's at home. Kim's put him in a spare rabbit hutch, in a (empty) chicken coop in our back garden. We'll be home tomorrow.
