My beautiful cat, Wellington, went missing from my garden around four weeks ago. I have high fences, and it's gardens onto gardens. As he was a bit lame he never left my garden, except to go into the house, as the fences were too high. One day, he wasn't there any more. I put notes round the neighbours. Nothing. I had to assume that he had had a heart attack or similar and his body had been taken away by foxes.
And now Napolean has disappeared in exactly the same way. He was also lame and not able to manage the fences. It's only been 24 hours but I can't help fearing the worst as it's just the same scenario. But how can two healthy cats suddenly drop dead like that? It's too much of a coincidence. But I can't think of any other explanation. My foxes are very timid and submissive and wouldn't attack a live cat.
I'm beside myself with worry. I don't need advice. I just want empathy/sympathy/to talk about it.
Here's a photo of Wellington with his favourite little girl cat.
