I'm stressed out. 4 days overdue, on my own. He was in last night and I just had a feeling something was wrong but I let him go back out again. Hormones all over the place so I keep bursting into tears.

No idea what to do- neighbours are all arseholes so I don't anyone would tell me if they had seen him.

Ok, don't panic. They do this to us & most come back.

You need posters, phone all the local vets & his microchip company if he's chipped.

Keep calling and tapping his food dish outside. Is there anyone who can help you? You can't go waddling around if you're pg.

How old is he, how long have you lived there and how long has he been going out for?

I'd give it another 24 hours just before starting to worry. The amount of times I've been tearing my hair out with worry and then my boy saunters back in demanding food like nothing has happened.

Called vets and nothing. I'm taking this as a good sign, whether I should or not I don't know.

We've been here 10 years and he's only 3 so always lived here. He does wonder occasionally but because he seemed a bit of colour last night I'm stressing out a little bit.

The majority of my friends all live on the other side of London, while I know most would come and help if I asked I just don't feel right in doing so.

I'm sat down with dinner and watching friends. I'm not going out again until DH comes back so just got to wait I guess :(

Really hope he's back soon.

Please please calm down. It hasn't been long. My cat has form for this. She has a set routine everyday. It's what she does but from time to time she stays out for ages and really worries me but she turns up when she's hungry.

Hopefully, kitty will come back shortly.

Fingers crossed he's back soon. My cats have gone a bit mental at the moment, it's spring and there's lots of interesting small creatures to hunt. Hopefully he's about to arrive home with a present or two.
