... ...and i don't even let my cats out. this morning the others decided it was integration time, and all went well. Odessa went exploring, and we haven't seen her since she ran into the basement. I'm scared out of my mind. I know there are exposed rafters down there and i'm scared she's somehow gone into the wall and could starve herself or something. I am so ashamed of myself, I thought I was being responsible to my cats. And I have learned something else too. I can come onto this site and give lots of nice little messages to people about praying and remaining calm, and you know what? I am horrible at taking my own damn advice. If something happens to her I don 't know what I'll do to myself. Louie left after lunch practically calling me everything but female for her disappearing. How can you lose a cat in your own house? She's very small, seven pounds at the most. Hopefully if she did get into the wall or the rafters she has the good sense, and the good figure, to get herself out again. I'm beside myself. I love that little girl. Please, any spare purrs for this frantic cat-mama? Blessed be, Baha Purrs are on their way, Baha. Cats are very good at finding hiding places, and usually they're good at getting out of them when they're good and ready. The evening before I had to take Skeeter for her last visit to TED, she disappeared. I have a cat door, so I didn't even know for sure whether she was inside or out. I searched both house and yard thoroughly, and didn't find her. I finally had to go to bed, but I was frantic, and didn't sleep much. The next morning my daughter came to take me to a medical procedure. I told her about Skeeter's disappearance, and she did her own search. She finally found her in the guest room closet. It has sliding doors, with no stops, so the door can be pushed inward, far enough for a cat to get inside. We're in Southern California, and you may remember we had a big earthquake several years ago. My daughter's cats are strictly indoor cats, and one of them disappeared. The next day they found her hiding inside the back of the washing machine. I'm betting Odessa will turn up when she wants to - probably when she gets hungry. In the meantime, calming purrs are coming your way. Joy |

OMG, Baha. Don't panic (hahaha) This is what I would do, put a plate of
yummy food in the basement, if she's hiding up somewhere she'll eat it perhaps in the night, and you'll notice it gone. If she can get into the rafters, she can surely get out. Is there any way she can get to the outside? If not, you have an almost 100% chance of getting her back. She is not stupid. If she is hungry, she'll come for the food overnight, and then perhaps you need to think about borrowing a trap. If she is stuck, and has a voice (unlike Kitty) she will yowl when she cannot get out and is hungry/thirsty. All is not lost. You are not a bad mommy, okay? Purrs for her safe return soon.
