missing cat
Some how my indoor cat got out today. We looked all over the
neighborhood and cant find her. She has never been out, especially over night. We just don't know what to do. We hope she will find her way home. We live is a large development. Needless to say we are feeling sick. |

I'd been in the yard and came back and the screen door had blown open. My indoor-only cats, who had been sitting by it, were no where to be seen. I called and searched and asked and finally went home after a couple of hours. Went in and searched the house, finally looking under the bed. There they were, huddled together in the middle, apparently terrified that something would come in and get them. Look again and look around the edges of the house, in shrubs, under things, etc. Don't expect her to come to you if she's outside for the first time and scared. http://www.madmousergraphics.com web design, print design, photography |

Sometime ago a man whose cat had disappeared decided to leave a "scent trail" around his area. He hung his dirty sox on his fence and left some used clothing in his yard. Then he walked barefooted in a star pattern for several miles around his house. He hoped the cat would find the scent and it would lead him home. He said it worked. I had bookmarked this story, but a computer problem resulted in all my bookmarks being deleted. I wish he would write in and give the story again. It was in Google. http://www.google.com/groups?selm=ve...ws.com&oe =UT F-8&output=gplain Thank you so much! I think every cat owner would do well to read this story . It is heartbreaking when a pet gets lost. I wish I knew more about computers to find a story I would like to re-read. Again, thank you. MLB |

The last time I did that my cat was hiding in my linen closet and
someone had shut her in. I hope you have just such a happy ending. "Don" wrote in message ... Some how my indoor cat got out today. We looked all over the neighborhood and cant find her.

I was amazed by the story when it was first posted, too. So many good suggestions were given, but the OPs trick was so original and worked, to boot. lol I wish I knew more about computers to find a story I would like to re-read. Again, thank you. MLB Google groups is pretty easy to use. http://groups.google.com and go to "advanced search", put in the criteria the best you remember it and if you remember the group it was originally posted in it helps narrow down the results. |
