Some people at nearby houses alerted me and are looking out for him and I have been leaving some food in a regular place for a few nights now. Am I doing the right thing and can you give me any other advice. I dont really want to use a cat trap at the moment as I dont want to trap someone elses cat and antagonise the people who are helping me. I live in a village and there are lots of fields roundabout. I just cant find out where he is sheltering during the day. The weather has been so awful recently and I am so worried about him. My Husband is a vet and says it is just a case of waiting for more info. My cat Henry went missing 10 weeks ago, but I have a had a possible sighting of him in the last week only about 3/4 mile away.

I still havent found him and it is starting to get colder (19 degrees) i put up flyers this night and im sitting by my phone. he is an indoor/outdoor cat and usually goes out for around 1-4 hours at times. He doesnt like to use the litter box and theres a pretty mulch garden just down the road he likes to use, and hey, he's a male cat.. But its been 3 days now and still not one sign of him. The whole neighborhood knows him because every morning after he eats at my house, he goes to my neighbor Mary's house and stares in her window till she sets out food. Then he heads over to Jesse's house, and jumps up on there screen hanging by his claws and stares at his two cats. They have to eventually set out food for him to get him to move along. Then he heads to Paula's house for some cheapo friskies wet food.. Which i am totally against after working at an all natural pet store for months. But since he has disapeared, i have asked all my neighbors including ottis, the neighborhood spoter of everything that goes on, and not a single one have seen him since the morning i let him out for his usual potty/food journey. Around a month ago, his collar was found over a half mile away (phone number on his collar) and he had still came back that night. He "lost" or as i say, purposely dropped, his collar and we got him a new one with his name "Edward" and our phone number on it. No one has called which makes me suggest that he lost it and doesnt have it on, or.. the worst. My cat went missing for the first time last monday..

He went missing over the Saturday night and never returned on the Sunday morning which was strange because in the 3+ years of having him, he always returned home! On the Sunday we decided to print out leaflets for the neighbours in the surrounding area and printed out posters to put near the local shops, school, post box, phone box and lamposts leasing into the area.... And it worked! We received a phone call from a neighbour on the Monday morning saying they found him hiding under the bed in their spare bedroom and that the leaflet gave the necessary details to find us :-D My fiancé and I went round the area every few hours to find our cat but obviously he was in a house but if was good to talk to the community and pass the word out too, we also offered a reward of £30! My only Resentment out of all this is some of the local yobs who thought it would be funny to tear apart some posters and steal the pins/staples ( I know) holding them onto the trees! This saddened me and my 2 bits of advice is 1) be pro-active if you know something is immediately wrong and don't sit back 'hoping for the best' and 2) don't let these yobs distract you and keep replacing the posters as their are good people who will help you!

The couple who found him whining googled him on cats protection website and found i had reported him missing. Would recommend to all that if they lose a pet to register it online with the national missing pet register and cats protection. Hi,

It never returned when I called and I hung about for some time. It was seen next day fleetingly and again a day later in a different place but close to where it ran off. I have been out to the the site several times for many hours. I have walked the immediate area whistleing and making noises he use to respond to. So he has not been seen for at least 7 days now and perhaps it is time to give up the search and I wonder what else I can do. I have left details of this with local animal shelters and with some people who live near that location. Is it time to give up? David Harris.
