I am so upset and don't know what to do. I got a rescue cat three days ago and all was going well. I had closed all the access I could think of.
The cat slept on my bed last night and everything was fine.
Then morning no sign of her.
I then realised the door that led to the utility cupboard was slightly ajar although I had closed it the night before and put a big plant in front of it to secure it further. No idea how it got open.
There is the electrics board and also the stopcock and a small access that lead under the floorboards of the living room so all I can think of is that the cat got in there as I have searched the entire house several times...
I don't know what to do. I can't hear her anywhere. I tried calling and shining a flashlight in there.
I am absolutely heartbroken and worried she got herself stuck in there, can't get back out and that I will never see her again.
Any suggestions apart from just randomly removing some of the wood flooring and hoping I can locate her?
It is a 1930s house and there is quite a big gap between the floorboard and all the pipe work so she could be anywhere by now...
I really hate myself for not securing the hole better. I have the light on in the cupboard hoping it might guide her back out and I am listening for any noise and mewing sounds.
