Buster's gone missing outside! He'd managed to push out the lower corner of
the screen door - quite a feat of strength - and he's slipped out and run
away. He's not inside, and the way he pushed out the screen, he couldn't
have gotten back inside himself even if he'd wanted to.

I've searched all around the yard, and the immediate neighborhood, but it's
past midnight, and it's dark. I've been trying to catch a glint of his eyes
with a flashlight. I hadn't seen him or checked the kitchen for only a
couple of hours, so he couldn't have been gone long.

Buster isn't an outdoor cat. He's been indoors all his life, because he's a
shy thing in unfamiliar conditions. I'm sure he might be hiding and
frightened. He's not a cat that normally goes up to people or comes when
called, so I'm not sure how I'll find him.

We're supposed to have thunderstorms today. I'm so worried for my soft,
sheltered stripey boy!



Do uou remember the posts about hanging out your sox or some used
clothing so a lost cat can identify his home? Also about walking in
your bare feet in a star patern for some distance from your home to make
a guide path back to your home"? If he hasn't returned, this may be of
help AFTER the storm is over.
We are sending ouir best purrs and prayers that he will find his way
home soon. MLB
