Hi,

i'm in a bit of a panic! I've been looking after my friends 2 cats while she's gone away for a few days. Thye've been here before and don't normally go far from the back yard.

This time though, one of them, the more timid of the two has disappeared. She's been gone for about 36 hours now, I've been out looking for her, shaking the cat food jar - which only brought the horses in the field running over, left tuna out to entice her back, been searching the areas round about but no sign of her.

What am I going to do?

Thought I'd put a poster in my front window and one in the paper shop, thing is I can;t really describe her very well either.

Last time my parnets left me to look after the cat it went missing. When they got back my dad found it and had to peel it off the road. :cwm24:

.....but that's probably the last thing you want to hear now :xxparty-smiley-004:

I already checked the roads round a bout here, there's not many and I didn't find it splattered yet....

Cats can be sneaky....cats can live in the neighbours house for days with you being completely unaware of it! So it's worth knocking on neighbours doors and asking...maybe that catnip stuff will entice it back? :Erm: You'll probably end up with every cat in the neighbourhood except the one your looking for! :icon_lol:

I once lost a cat I was looking after, sent out a frantic search part for it, looked everywhere, was getting really worried, and where was it? Behind the sofa! :doh

Hey don't worry! It may be that the cat has a habit of disapearing for days! Some cats are like that, and if that cat is never found it's hardly your fault anyway! Your just the unfortunate one who was looking after it when it decided to bugger off somewhere!!:doh

One of my 2 cats, has on occasion, gone missing for a few days, but turns up when she's ready.
Yours might have been duffed up, by one of the local moggies & maybe hiding somewhere?
Cats generally like their own territory. Maybe better, if your friend leaves them there & you go and feed them.
I left mine at home for 2 weeks recently, when I went to the Phils. A friend of mine came & fed them, plus they could get in or out through the catflap.
They had a bit of a grumble, when I got back, but so did I. :)

Hope it turns up soon.

Cats bury their pooh! They have a complex social life, and failing to bury pooh is a sort of threat to other cats...so they bury their pooh as a sort of sighn that they are being submissive. :xxgrinning--00xx3:

They say dogs mark their territory by poohing! So there like "I've poohed here and I'm proud of it!":doh

I have been reading a lot lately..:) I thought I might jazz things up a bit with my true or false/fact or myth stuff...:)

How do you make a cat go woof? - Pour petrol on it....
