Lost my cat :(

  • I was out of town last night and balling my eyes out because when I got back my dog was there but my cat that usually greets me at the door too was nowhere to be found.

    I got him as a baby and he was abandoned by his mother along with the rest of his litter, he was bottle fed and cured of all kinds of parasites that he had. He was a sick palm sized kitten basically. He is the most dog like social cat ever though now - I think due to the fact thay he was basically raised by humans since the beginning

    Anyway I come home today after being gone all night and I can't find him. Roommate or roommate's brother inadvertently let him out or he slipped out, whatever.

    Not that he hasn't been out before but typically I call his name and he's back in a flash.

    This time, however, nothing. Scoured the whole neighborhood and he's not anywhere.

    I just had to vent because he's one of the #1 things I care about and I can't find him and I'm so sad right now. Have to call all the animal shelters tomorrow.

  • Believe it or not they say putting out the cat's litter box can draw them back. They can smell their scent up to two miles away. Give it a try.

  • Good idea, just put it out and sprinkled some of it around

  • My cat is sometimes out for literal months at a time and always finds her way home. Cats are survivors.

    Early man walked away as modern man took control. Their minds weren't all the same and to conquer was their goal. So He built his great empires and he slaughtered his own kind, and he died a confused man and killed himself in his own mind...

  • I just brought my cat inside the other day. She's been out since may. I had to trick her and put a food bowl inside and wait behind the door to slam it on her.

  • Hope you get her back

  • I live in blue-haired hippy town though and he's a real friendly people cat, I could see some blue-haired liberal arts punk seeing him and saying "oh what a super friendly, healthy adult cat - I'm sure he doesn't already have a home let me keep him"

    Uhmm, blue hairs are what is usually meant by really old women in like nursing homes. Do you live in a nursing home?

  • Or they'll post a pic on Facebook no one will respond to it then they'll take him to a shelter, when if they just left him alone chances are hed find his way back.

    There's a post there if anybody on here wants to share it to their own Facebook timeline

  • I have to have at least 50 flyers all around the immediate area I've gotten calls from people just to tell me they're looking.

    I doubt he'd go very far so I'd think somebody would have to see one of them if they took him.

    I'll be stopping at the local shelter tomorrow and faxing the information to every vet/shelter in the area that I can't stop in myself. Already hit some of the local ones here in Lakewood

  • Good luck

  • Somebody saw him having a party yesterday evening like 5 houses down, so that's good news at least

    Going to go out around 2am and try to draw him out

  • Found my cat 🙂

    Got a report that someone saw him yesterday on the other side of the street. I went over in that direction around 8pm calling him and couldn't hear anything.

    Decided I was gonna go out around midnight when it was quiet and dark. Once I crossed the train tracks (like 7 houses down) I heard meowing from some bushes across the street. Went over and that bastard jumped right out and followed me all the way home.

  • Glad you found him again. Lost pets suck. My parents lost one of their (two) cats last year - went missing from about early december, and turned up again looking emaciated and bedraggled but otherwise in good health about two months later.

    Also, I recently watched Keanu (key and peele film) on a flight, and since your guy turned up, I feel less bad about suggesting you go undercover as a gangster to find him. Surprisingly excellent film.

  • Good deal bbedward. You're lucky the Chinese restaurant owners didn't find him first.

  • Good job.

  • Glad too hear it. Outdoor cats life span is far less then living indoors.

  • I do let him out from time to time but generally supervised if I'm out grilling or something he'll be out there sunbathing

    It's just not really the neighborhood for an indoor/outdoor cat IMO
