Cinnamon Posted August 27, 2007 Share Posted August 27, 2007 (edited) Chilli my lovely half Bengal cat has been missing for 3 days & I am just beside myself with worry Typically he lost his collar last week, so has a spare on which had no id tag (although he is chipped) He often goes walkabout for a day,but never for this long. Is it too soon for me to do a leaflet drop in the village,do you think? Edited August 29, 2007 by Guest Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cate in NZ Posted August 27, 2007 Share Posted August 27, 2007 Oh Sarah, what a worry I think I'd leaflet drop now rather than waiting. I hope he turns up. Is he a nosey cat, gone exploring in the shed or garage of a neighbour who just happens to have gone away for the BH weekend? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cinnamon Posted August 27, 2007 Author Share Posted August 27, 2007 He is pretty adventerous, so could have gone somewhere to sleep & got shut in. In fact we have suspected him of having a little hidey hole as he sometimes is away for a day at a time,even if its raining heavily (so it must be a dry place) I will take a wander later.Thing is there aren't many houses by me as we are at the end of the village,& I am not sure how far he does actually wander.

Trish Posted August 27, 2007 Share Posted August 27, 2007 being the BH weekend Chilli might just be in a shed etc and will be able to get out soon. I'd think about asking local neighbours etc anywat just incase some one has seen Chilli. Our Jasper never roams and once went missing for a 5 days. Came back safe and sound so I guess he was locked in some where. Hope Chilli is back soon (hugs) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

xChicken04x Posted August 27, 2007 Share Posted August 27, 2007 How horrible. Our little Squeak went missing for about 5 days once. She was locked in a neighbor's shed and the neighbor went on holiday to spain for about 2 weeks. Definatly post leaflets around thats how we got Squeak back, the person who came to feed and walk the neighbors dog saw the leaflet and looked in the shed. If we hadnt have posted them around it would have been 2 weeks Squeak would have been in there. I hope you find him xx Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jules. Posted August 27, 2007 Share Posted August 27, 2007 Yes, do a leaflet drop/knock on doors today. Hattie went missing for a couple of weeks once, & we are sure she had been locked in somewhere. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Snowy Posted August 27, 2007 Share Posted August 27, 2007 Oh Sarah, sorry to hear about Chilli. I do hope he turns up soon. I agree, a leaflet drop would be a good start, hopefully he won't have gone too far. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
craftyhunnypie Posted August 27, 2007 Share Posted August 27, 2007 Hi, Hope Chilli turns up soon. I'd take a really good look round the village & put a leaflet up in say the village shop & post office. Hope he turns up! Fingers crossed for you.

Nicola H Posted August 27, 2007 Share Posted August 27, 2007 Sarah i do hope Chilli comes back soon, I would have a wander around and see if he is stuck somewhere or ask close neighbours to check sheds or garages. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lost-sheep Posted August 27, 2007 Share Posted August 27, 2007 hope he turns up... kitties can be such a worry... i did see something on the tv a wghile ago about a bloke who lost his cat... 6 months later it turned up! dont lose heart yet but i would probably put posters up cos if he was in an accident and lost his collar some one might have taken him to a vets not realising he had an owner... not that he WAS in an accident... maybe its something else like he had a secret girlfriend who has moved over seas so he has set off on an adventure to be with her always!! dont lose heart Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chickenlass Posted August 27, 2007 Share Posted August 27, 2007 Agree that it's not too soon to start a leaflet drop... Will keep everything crossed for you that he comes home shortly of his own accord and has just been out enjoying the sunny weelend we have had.

Rona Posted August 27, 2007 Share Posted August 27, 2007 Hope the leaflet drop works. I had a cat once who went missing for 3 weeks and came home one night with coaldusty paws and terribly pleased to be home. It is wonderful when they come home after an adventure. Fingers crossed you will soon be celebrating Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Joojoo Posted August 27, 2007 Share Posted August 27, 2007 (edited) My cat went missing for 4 days once. I hunted everywhere for her and after a couple of days did a leaflet drop through letterboxes and in local shops. On the 4th day I was sitting in the back garden and she just appeared over the fence a neighbour further up said they had seen her vaulting the fences all the way down the gardens to get home bless her. She was covered in cobwebs and a bit dehydrated but was fine after a lovely cuddle with her mum. I'm certain that the leaflets worked for me I know what you are going through as they are like a member of your family and you miss them dreadfully when they are not there I'm keeping everything crossed for you. Loads of hugs on their way Edited August 28, 2007 by Guest Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BeckyBoo Posted August 27, 2007 Share Posted August 27, 2007 I really hope you hear something positive soon, pets are such a worry. Also in the morning if you haven't heard don't forget to ring round your local animal rescue centres, Police stn and vets, if he's been found and has a chip he may have been handed in. Good luck Mrs B Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
redfrock Posted August 27, 2007 Share Posted August 27, 2007 keeping everything crossed for you - at least you know that with the chip and the leaflet drop you have done everything you could. Ollie has also gone for a couple of days before (phoebe never did) - it is the worst feeling in the world. big hugs x Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Loads of hugs on their way Funny I did the same thing when Killer went missing, my leaflet asked folks to check garages and sheds. She came back next night looking rough,was woken up by her purring on the bed next to me. Hope you have a similar happy ending Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
