| Call your local animal control officer and any shelters and vets
in the area incase he has been turned in. Also run an ad in your
local paper.
Good luck.
Nancy DC
p.s. Have you checked your basement, garage and any other structures
like that in the area? All your neighbor's garages, basements etc.

| Oh, no, Lisa!
Best of luck with finding Percy. He's such a beautiful cat!
I agree with Nancy's suggestions. Also, you might try talking to
the neighborhood children. Kids keep an eye out for cats and dogs, and
they might have seen him.
Here's sending kitty vibes to Percy to "come home"!

| Lisa,
I know what you're going through as Georgie has had his (missing)
moments, too.
Have faith.
Here's hoping you find him soon,
Karen (and Georgie)

| I'm told it helps if the poster offers a reward and has more than one
color of ink. (This from a pet-care program on the educational channel
a few years back.)

3472.5 | :-( | XNOGOV::LISA | | Fri Mar 30 1990 10:25 | 21 |
| I have put up posters in the local shop, petrol station and the show
house - I live on a new development. I am offering a reward.
I have called the local vets, police, RSPCA, rescue centre and
shelters.
I have searched the houses that are being built down the road.
I have called a removal firm that were moving someone in close by in
case Percy hid in the lorry (and is now in Slough).
I have posted leaflets through all the neighbours doors. I will spread
the search later this evening when some of my neighbours can help.
I've done all this and still nothing.
Pookie misses him and so do I. I am miserable.
Lisa.

3472.6 | Hope he is just on 'vacation'... | FENNEL::SPINGLER | | Fri Mar 30 1990 10:50 | 10 |

Oh Lisa,
Please continue to keep us posted, we are all hoping he will be home
safe and sound very shortly. (Sending out kitty vibes too...)

| A cat was killed very close to here on Wednesday night. A neighbour
saw it. The car stopped, but the cat was dead. I don't know if
it was Percy - the body has vanished. I wish the neighbour had come
round earlier.
Lisa.
PS The cat was ginger - just like Percy.
I hope its not him - I just can't stand the thought of him being dead.

3472.8 | prayers | MEMIT::MISSELHORN | | Fri Mar 30 1990 13:01 | 9 |
| Lisa,
I feel so bad! Prayers are on their way for Percy's safe return.
Hang in there! One of our childhood cats was missing for 10 days
before coming safely home.
Thinking of you,
Barbara
|
3472.9 | | NATASH::ANDERSON | | Fri Mar 30 1990 13:50 | 9 |
| Lisa,
My thoughts and prayers are with you. I feel sad - so I can just imagine
the anguish you are feeling. Not knowing can be so awful.
Hope Percy comes home to you TODAY!

3472.10 | | CIRCUS::KOLLING | Karen/Sweetie/Holly/Little Bit Ca. | Fri Mar 30 1990 14:12 | 11 |
| Our thoughts are with you. Is there any way that you might be able to
find out if the dead cat was Percy? Around here the animal control people
pick up bodies, so they might have a description, or perhaps
someone living nearby buried him? Did he have an id tag on?
When cats go missing they are often temporarily trapped in a garage or
basement or shed, but it sounds like you are covering that
possibility.
I know how terrible you must feel. Please let us know how things go.

3472.11 | | CSCOA5::MCFARLAND_D | | Fri Mar 30 1990 14:28 | 10 |
| Lisa.
I agree you have done all you can. Now the hardest part--the waiting.
We are sending prayers that Percy was not run over, that he's just
hiding out somewhere...
Diane, Stella (who once vanished for three days, making her mother
hysterical) and Stanley
|
3472.12 | We found him | XNOGOV::LISA | | Fri Mar 30 1990 14:53 | 11 |
| We found him. Stuck in a hedge. He was run over on Wednesday evening.
Hardly a mark.
Pookie seems a bit confused. She keeps on going out which is very
unusual. I think she must be looking for him.
We will bury him tomorrow. I am so unhappy. Poor Percy - We loved him
so much.
Lisa.

3472.13 | Condolensces | FSHQA1::RKAGNO | A Cat Makes a Purrfect Friend | Fri Mar 30 1990 15:02 | 13 |
| Oh, Lisa, I am so sorry to hear about Percy's demise. We lost Chauncey
last October to a car accident, so know how you are feeling.
Take comfort in knowing that you gave Percy a happy life while he
was alive, and that he loved you very much. Cats have no concept
of quantity, but do know when they have lived a quality life.
May a lucky new kitty find his way into your home and heart when
you are ready.
Take care,
Roberta

3472.14 | My Sympathy... | NATASH::ANDERSON | | Fri Mar 30 1990 15:23 | 9 |
| Lisa,
My heart is aching for you and having lost three kittens to "cars" when
I was a child - I can empathize with you.
My thoughts are with you. I am so sorry!
Marilyn
|
3472.15 | oh no... | CSCOA5::MCFARLAND_D | | Fri Mar 30 1990 15:27 | 10 |

Lisa...
So sorry to hear the worst has come true. And who would stick a dead
cat in a hedge?!?!!
It just won't be the same on notes without "P&P". We grieve with you.

3472.16 | | CIRCUS::KOLLING | Karen/Sweetie/Holly/Little Bit Ca. | Fri Mar 30 1990 16:15 | 7 |
| We're terribly sorry. At least there is perhaps some small
comfort in knowing he must have died instantly. I'm sure you will
all be together again in heaven.
Karen, Sweetie, Holly, Little Bit, (and Pussycat, my orange baby who is
also waiting for us in heaven, and keeping Percy company.)

3472.18 | be brave | VOGON::KCAMPBELL | takes every kind of people | Mon Apr 02 1990 06:10 | 13 |
| Lisa,
I am so sorry and so sad. Although I never met Percy I heard so much about
him I felt I knew him. And those lovely pictures you showed me only last
week.
Try to think of all the good times you had with him. I'm sure this
will help you get through this unhappy experience.
Best wishes,
Karen (and Georgie)

| Lisa,
I know how this feels. I'm so sorry that Percy was killed.
I hope its some small consolation to know that his name has been
added to the Silver Lining Memorial and our donations made in his
and other cats' memories will be put to use helping other kitties.

| Lisa,
I'm so sorry. It was so obvious when we met you, how much you loved
him, just remember - he knew that too. I'm sure he's with all of our
other beloved furry friends, who will be waiting to greet us when our
time comes. You will see him again...

3472.26 | Thank you ... | XNOGOV::LISA | | Mon Apr 02 1990 14:51 | 12 |
| Thank you for all your messages - it really is a comfort to know that
other people care. I am going to print the whole note out so that I
can keep it with my photos of Percy. I loved Percy so much - I keep
expecting him to come through the cat flap at any moment.
We buried him in the garden and planted a couple of plants in his
memory at the W/E.
Thanks again,
Lisa plus Pookie.
|
3472.27 | What a nice tribute... | NATASH::ANDERSON | | Mon Apr 02 1990 14:59 | 7 |
| What a nice idea - keeping the notes and putting them with the
pictures...it would make a nice 'book'. What a special tribute!
I'll give Otis an extra hug and a kiss tonight - in memory of Percy!

Scruffy sends her paws prayers.......
So sorry for the loss of your baby. I have gotten to know all these
cats through FELINERS.
I share your heart-pains, small smiles of memories will appear. Let
yourself grieve, for if you don't it hurts too much. Some will not
expect you to ("just a cat, they say!"). I have and haven't grieved,
and it's best too.
My Fur-Face hugs, from Dudley Road
