| Roger,
Has the little guy come back? When my Maine Coon Cat was about 6
months old, he got out for the first time. He was gone for several
hours, but returned home later. After that, he would occasionally wander
off for a day or two at a time. Both my cats seem to spend a day or two
away once in awhile. I think they are living at the neighbors' houses.
They always come back.

| Alas, Denise, Loiosh has not returned. It's been almost two weeks now, and
I'm losing heart. I have a friend whose roommate's cat was away for two weeks
once; perhaps all is not lost.
I've continued to leave the window open for Loiosh, but all this has gotten me
so far is a cold.
See my new response in note #2 for the one bright spot in this sad story.

| This evening I got a phone call from a woman in one of the neighboring
buildings. She had seen my "Lost Cat" sign, and called to say that a gray
tiger answering Loiosh's description was in one of the nearby parking lots.
I went outside, and guess who I found by the trash dumpster near my building!
Loiosh saw me, screamed, and ambled over. I sat down on the cement and he
jumped into my lap. I'm sure I looked pretty ridiculous playing the reunion
scene from "Without a Trace" with a cat, but I felt just WONDERFUL!
Loiosh is thin, but apparently healthy. Amazingly, he still has his collar,
which hangs very loosely on his now-scrawny neck. He spent his first hour at
home commuting between the food dish and my lap. Right now he's got his paws
wrapped around my neck in a much-needed hug.
My thanks to all of you who have contributed advice, assistance, and
consolation during these harrowing two weeks.

| I'm moved to tears that your kitty was found. Alas, my newly acquired
to the woods kitty (Tattoo) has been missing for 5 days now. I have
searched all the neighboring roads, woods and fields calling for him.
I am hopeful that he will return, saw a weasel Sunday and am fearing
the worst. He was/is? such a friendly cat.

I really hope that Tattoo does find his way home. I know the feeling of
wait, wait, wait...

| I too know the feeling. We had a big yellow longhair that used to wander a
lot. There would be frequent times when we didn't see him for a couple of days
at a time. There were even a few times where he was gone over a week! (A
couple of times we were sure that he had been shut up in a garage when
somebody went on vacation. [He would come back all dirty and hungry as a
horse!])
Hope your's returns soon

| Thank you all very much for writing. I am hoping that he is only temporarily
in a garage somewhere. I'm glad I have Cat Notes, it helps. I'll keep you
posted. deb

the note?
