Paola Posted November 12, 2008 Share Posted November 12, 2008 (edited) Our Azlan has been missing since Sunday I know it is not long but he has never done this before. He is always in and out of the house stuffing his face I have printed off some leaflets and posted them in this street and the one behind. I have already had a call from one lady saying that she knows of 3 houses in her street that he visits I have checked the nearby main road just to make sure that he has not been run over. It is such a worry Edited November 15, 2008 by Guest Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

laurmurf Posted November 12, 2008 Share Posted November 12, 2008 If it's any consolation at all, Paola, we found our missing chap when someone spotted one of our posters up at the nearby post office. We'd leafletted the whole neighbourhood but he'd gone further than we thought and got himself completely lost. Someone collecting their pension at the PO saw the posted and contacted me about 10 days after he went missing. Good luck with the search, we'll be thinking of you!

The Dogmother Posted November 12, 2008 Share Posted November 12, 2008 Oh no! Good luck with finding him Paola. Have you been in touch with the local vet practices and any animal charities? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paola Posted November 12, 2008 Author Share Posted November 12, 2008 Not yet. He is chipped so I would hope that if he was found then they would contact me. I will prob start tomorrow. As most people are at work I am hoping that once people have checked garages etc tonight that he might appear. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Dogmother Posted November 12, 2008 Share Posted November 12, 2008 Fingers crossed that he just got locked in someone's shed on Sunday, although goodness knows who was doing gardening in that weather! With two inqusitive cats and 12 hens that are the same, I alwys shut the shed door unless I am actually in there. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Seagazer Posted November 12, 2008 Share Posted November 12, 2008 Oh no Paola, I am so sorry, I know how worrying it is. When Dave went missing I phoned all the local vets. They all said they had 'lost' books that they kept the details in but that they all did routinely scan any animal that comes in no matter what condition they come in. I have read however that local councils don't do this. Perhaps you should leaflet further afield and contact the vets and council offices. He sounds a bit like Dave as he goes in other people's houses as well. My neighbours say that they go round checking all the house before they go away just to make sure he's not in there. Perhaps he has done this and somebody is away. I will keep my fingers and toes crossed that he comes home safe and sound. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Paola Posted November 12, 2008 Author Share Posted November 12, 2008 Thank you guys. Will call the vets and council tomorrow. Will post further afield and put some signs up as well. Every time the phone rings I think it might be somebody with some news so I spring up like somebody doing the 100 meter sprint My neighbour called to see if I had any news and was saying things like 'he WAS such a lovely cat' I know she means well but still Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Paola Posted November 12, 2008 Author Share Posted November 12, 2008 I have had a couple of calls from neighbours being supportive, which has really surprised me as well as touched me. Have just got back from taking the dog out and doing a lap to see if there is any sign of him. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Paola Posted November 13, 2008 Author Share Posted November 13, 2008 No We have some woods behind our street next to some MOD land, which I know he visits, so I took the dog over there after dropping the kids off at school this morning but no sign I called our vets and I have also called the council. They said that they have no cats at the mo. They do always check them for chips when they are found which is reassuring. I also called Petlog to let them know that he is missing I am trying to stay positive but I am finding it so hard DD1 keeps on asking me if he will come home Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Olly Posted November 13, 2008 Share Posted November 13, 2008 so sorry - you've done all you can in terms of publicising him, asking around. Fingers crossed, they can take off for several days and then turn up looking none the worse for wear, I hope he's just gone on a bit of a wander.

Omletina Kyckling Posted November 13, 2008 Share Posted November 13, 2008 Oh Paola, I'm keeping everything crossed for you.....I can't begin to imagine how you are feeling. Sending you lots of hugs....I had a friend whose cat went missing and turned up about four months later, as if he'd never been away....she couldn't believe it when he strolled in the cat flap....I just hope your boy comes back soon x Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
