Cat gone AWOL

MadsL · 30-01-2014 09:38PM #1

Any suggestions as to the best way to find my cat that has gone awol. Three coyotes were hanging about earlier look guilty.

I fear the worst.

How do you find a cat? The classic lost poster?

That's all you can do. And hope
it comes back when hungry.

shopaholic01 · 30-01-2014 09:41PM

Poor pussy.

I don't think coyotes can read "have you seen my cat" posters.

Did you try calling "Puss, Puss" ?

Hope you get the cat back!

Has there been any ransom demands?

If it's not dead, it'll find its own way home when it's good and ready.

I had a cat 'go missing' for over 6 months, presumed squashed.. and it turned up one morning looking to be fed as if it hadn't been away at all.

You can't control the cats!

There's plenty of cougars in that part of the world isn't there? I know I have trouble with them any time I'm over there. Maybe one of them got it?

They have pet psychics in America that claim to be able to "communicate" with lost pets. Here's a genuine extract from one of their websites:

Lost Animal Consultations are $110.00 and include time working with your animal to figure out where they are, if they are inside or outside, healthy or injured.

But there's bad news:

Please note: I cannot guarantee that your pet will be returned once I have communicated with them or had them describe their location to me.

They also do "long-distance Reiki healing" for $30 per animal.

Alternatively, you could flush your money down the toilet.

You crazy Yanks!

Do sexy older women usually steal cats? :pac:

All you can do is wait. Could be stuck somewhere. Ours once came back after ages and was covered in dust or something like she'd been trapped somewhere.

It's kitten season. Is it male or female? Lots of male cats fighting at the moment. Might have just gone walk about.

Cat is female and has been spayed (twice actually, poor thing)

It's cute how you are worrying about your cat.

Just know he doesn't miss you. Cats are scum

shopaholic01 · 30-01-2014 10:00PM

How old is she?

No really, how can mods get away with such crass comments. Ok tell me it's within the rules or whatever. But if you think that's funny then you're one sicko with little to do.

No idea, probably 5 or 6, she was a rescue and the previous owner had Alzheimers, hence the spaying twice.

Older cats sometimes go away to die, but she's still young. Probably gone hunting. I hope she returns with lots of 'presents'.

Your cat could be out getting some pussy of his own. If not your neighbours have better food than you. It'll come back in its own time.

There used to be a fair amount of them in Frankies of Raphoe if I mind right lol.

Sticky thread, to be fair. Man is without a cat - must be distraught.

If he loves you he'll come back.

And if it doesn't come back, it was never meant to be in the first place.

If she's microchipped, you could ring your local vet

She is - and has a registration disc for a recovery company - plus a phone number on her collar and two more engraved on her discs.

Short of tattooing her, not much else I can do...

Is that it, ours went missing for 5 days, I was sure he was killed by some other tom, or that he was either trapped in a neighbours house or being held hostage somewhere by some well meaning kid?
Turned up today looking noticeably thinner and going mental for some food, so rules out being well treated elsewhere, god knows what he was up to, but he was not being fed.

She hears you calling, she just doesn't care. This is why I respect cats.
