    Default Escaped cat :(

    So at some point today, while having the alarm system installed Pita escaped. She isn't a door darter, It actually took about 5 mins with the door open to get her to come outside.. then she followed me around every step I took.

    At some point today.. I was painting the bedroom, the installer was in and out a couple times but I never saw the door open.. Now she's gone.

    I've spent the last 6 hours looking for her. I've been all over the neighborhood and in every yard I could enter.. I've found 3 gray cats, a calico, and another but can't find mine. I got really excited when I saw some eyes reflecting under a van down the road.. got closer and it was and it was the same color.. but she didn't make a noise.. and the face was different..

    This ****ing sucks. It's going to snow on weds. She's never been an outdoor cat.. she still has her claws.. but I'm going insane.

    She's micro-chipped but I can't find the papers since I moved..

    Where did you get her chipped ?

    When my last cat got hit by a car :-( they called my ex wife when they scanned the chip.

    the chip is registered to the Vet .. the vet hopefully has current contact info for you .
    ( At least this is how I THINK it works .... )


    hopefully Pita will show up late tonight making noise to be let back in .

    Their survival instincts are amazing, but sooner or later she'll be wanting to come home. Might wanna make some flyers though, I just hooked one up with its owner a few weeks ago because I came across a flyer and recognized it as the new cat pestering my dog in the front yard.

    Aren't the chips only effective if the cat is recovered?

    Just a consideration, did you check all the drawers in the bedrooms, etc? We have one cat, that curled up in the sock drawer one day. 36hrs later, we finally found her, alive, and well thank god.

    chips are reg to the person who owns it, some times vets will throw there info there as well...good luck monky, a completely different story by my mom locked one of her cat in the truck of her old car for a few days...she couldnt find him and got worried finally heard the cat getting in the car, he was fine just a little hungry

    Yeah just moved a month ago.. the furthest she ever ventured out before was the back porch.. 2nd story.. and only looked over the edge.

    I've checked the drawers.. all the cabinets.. on top of everything, under everything.. believe me if she were in here I would know.. she's a
    'bit' vocal.. especially if I shake her food bowl...

    She was a rescue kitty from DDFL, so she was chipped there. My old info is there, the phone #'s are still current, I just can't find the papers w/ the chip info. DDFL will still have it.

    I don't have any pictures of her beyond from a distance of her doing dumb stuff.. no distinguishing marks, beyond her strange noises.

    I'm just worried as all hell.. after a few minutes outside w/ me she'd be pawing at the door.

    I miss her annoying wake me up in the morning cause she was hungry ass..

    How far did you move? I know of two cats that went back to their previous homes after a move.

    Good luck.

    About 14 miles away?

    I could only HOPE that would happen as my old neighbors miss me and loved my noisy cat that is 'louder than my gf'
