I've lost my sisters cat

Dsis dropped her cat off at our flat this afternoon as we are cat sitting. She put her in the kitchen and closed the door as I was at work.

So I get home from work, instruct the children not to open the kitchen door because of said cat and I then unload the car with the front door open.

Come to the kitchen, door fully closed and cannot find her anywhere 😭 I have searched the cupboards, on top of the units, tried to pull the washing machine out to see if she was behind there, I cannot bloody well find her!

I have called Dsis and my nephew has insisted he closed the door behind him. My children have sworn they didn't open the door (it's an awkward handle which the youngest can't open anyway so couldn't have been her) but what if she wasn't shut in the kitchen and escaped through the front door while we were unloading the car?!

She is a house cat and likes to be left to her own devices. The plan was to feet and water her, clean her litter and let her be and so far I cannot find her!!

The backdoor was closed when I got there, her food doesn't look touched, I have shaken her dry food and called for her and not heard anything. I have left ham out because apparently she loves it but its untouched.

What the hell do I do if I have lost my sisters cat!? Please tell me some cats are just really good at hiding and being very very quiet? I'm panicking, my sister will never forgive me if anything has happened to her!

I am pleased for you. It is the worst nightmare, losing someone else's cat. I don't think it is a good idea to look after anyone's cat! Too much responsibility and too easy to screw up because the cat will be scared being in a strange place. Things can happen.
