It had been two days since one of my cats, the one closest to me, had disappeared. He was hurt after getting into a fight with another cat not long before, so I couldn't help but worry that something happened and he might be wounded again or worse. This cat, Tommy, follows me around almost as a dog would, and he rarely stays away for long. I had a bad feeling that I can't quite describe, and I felt a pulling to ask Freya to protect him.
I rarely work with any of the Aesir or Vanir Gods, since my experience until now is mostly with Loki, Hel and Sigyn, but I decided to leave Her an offering. I picked the most beautiful pink roses of my garden and tied them with light beige ribbon, and put a cup of milk on the altar next to those. I also got my amber necklace out of the jewelry box and wore it until he returned.
A few hours after the offering was done I heard a familiar meowing sound coming from the door, and there he was. A little scratched and with a hole in his ear, caused by the bite of another cat, but alive and not too hurt. I treated his wounds and let him sleep inside. I thanked Freya for bringing him back to me safely, and now I feel I should try working with Her more often. Hopefully I can get to know Her more and learn of what offerings She likes.
