Dszari, thanks for adding that reminder about pets hiding in neighboring sheds and whatnot. You reminded me of another hiding spot to watch out for--underneath car hoods (when I was a child, I remember a neighbor's kitty that used to do this when the weather got cold).

This is a good article. Another suggestion, especially if you live in a sub-division or suburban area, make flyers to distribute in the area asking your neighbors to please check storage buildings or crawl spaces on their property. Twice, my cat entered a neighbor's garden shed during a yard clean up day and was closed up inside for several days. Any curious cat will enter an unfamiliar enclosed space and often stay for a nap. When the property owner closes the storage area he has no idea there is a sleeping explorer trapped inside.

Cats do like to wander, hang out with all the neighbor cats discussing dog's I suppose. Fur-kids sure can be a handful. good advice for a lost cat, and for worried parents

ahh look at the little kitten. hopeful it a missing cat doesn't have to be found all the way at a clinic, hospital or shelter, but is sure is a thought to keep in mind. Good tips and advice

on 10/26/2008 We had a cat that disappeared for several months and then just reappeared one day. We never knew where he went.
