Where are the?

One of the cats didn't come in this morning. Most odd. I got home at about 3.30pm and there is no sign of either, despite shaking the dreamies. I feel disproportionately concerned, particularly due to the heat. They are very food orientated.

One has come home. The one who was missing this morning hasn't.

In the last hot spell one of ours went missing for a week.
have you popped anything that may smell of them outside, blankets, beds, litter tray etc that’s supposed to help them smell their way home.

I also shouted like a lunatic everywhere we went as we knew he could cover some ground.

We have a local Facebook group for missing animals so I posted on there too.

Hopefully there out having a lovely adventure in the nice weather and will be back very soon.

If not back soon might be worth putting a few posters around the local area asking people to check outbuildings, people tend to be in and out with lawnmowers/bikes/paddling pools etc. more in the nice weather and cat might have sneaked in without them noticing. My cat disappeared for 3 weeks this time of year a few years ago, turned up at 3am one morning!

Fingers crossed they return safely soon x

They so love to be out somewhere in this hot weather. Don’t lose hope x

Don’t worry about the heat-cats are very good at finding comfortable places to hole up. Both of mine are out from sunrise to sunset at the moment.

Isn't everyone in and out of sheds in this weather? Bet it's back tomorrow..

RosesAndHellebores · 01/07/2025 21:59

No sign so far. She hasn't been seen since 4am.

I hope she’s back soon. Remember cats are desert creatures. Leave one of your unwashed tops and a bowl of water outside.

CatChant · 01/07/2025 22:15

I hope she’s back soon. They are terrors for doing this in hot weather.

RosesAndHellebores · 01/07/2025 23:25

Thank you for the hand holds. She is home. Starving. I am so relieved.

Hooray!

She is beautiful.

Oh brilliant news, it’s so lovely once they’re back. Enjoy your snuggles.

Allergictoironing · 02/07/2025 09:07

Ah, a tortie - explains a lot! 😆

Cattery · 02/07/2025 14:25

Great news. X

RosesAndHellebores · 02/07/2025 20:02

She has been shattered and very affectionate today.
