Missing cat - escaped from Cattery in Blackpool [Edited by MNHQ]

My cat is missing in South Shore Blackpool. He escaped from a Cattery on Wednesday night. We have come back from holiday to find him but no sign. Done leaflets, contacting local sanctuaries and vets, social media etc and the cattery is helping search. Please can I ask anyone in the area to look out for him I don’t think he would possibly find his own way home he’s not a wanderer. So upset and worried for him. He’s a small black cat with a very tiny patch of white on his chest. He was wearing a blue patterned collar and is microchipped. It seems he will have jumped from some height to get out so may be injured. Hope some of you are local and can help.

Thank goodness for that!

There were four sightings of him yesterday about half a mile in the opposite direction than our house and we searched for ages on the evening but no sign. This morning I looked out of the window and he was there. No idea how he found his way unless maybe he could follow the scent of us. He’s a clever boy and seems absolutely fine was just tired and hungry 😺

I'm so happy to hear he is home, OP.

Are you getting a discount at the cattery though?

sirlee66 · 28/07/2018 21:33

Oh, OP! I've just had a little cry!!! So happy you have your boy back!!! What a clever puss!!!!

Flamingo19 · 28/07/2018 21:46

Yes - I’m also wondering are you still expected to pay the full costs of the ‘stay’ at the cattery?!

Notmyrealname85 · 28/07/2018 21:50

I would never trust the cattery again! But thank god your boy is home

Vinorosso74 · 28/07/2018 21:57

Wow! Am pleased he's home safely. I remember the thread last summer about one who escaped but no idea if he made it home. Am glad our cattery has indoor pens as I think our young lad would try his hardest to get out!

The Cattery haven’t charged and they paid for the leaflets and delivered loads and searched too. I felt bad for them as they were so worried and rang as soon as they found he was missing. They got me flowers and chocolates too. Its just one of those awful things they said it’s never happened before. So glad it’s a happy ending (even though we only got half a holiday 🙄) I still can’t believe he found his own way it’s quite impressive
