I'm a mess right now. I lost my cat!
I had taken him over to my brothers house to stay to see if his cat and mine would get along as I'm going on vacation next week out of town and wanted to see if my brother could watch him.
Well, the trip was over so I put him back in his crate and was walking out to my car when I felt the crate suddenly get a lot lighter. I realized I had left a flap open and he jumped out of it. I went after to him to retrieve him and he ran under the shed where I couldn't get to him. I tried coaxing him out with food but he wouldn't budge from his spot. So I left some food out for him by the porch and hoped he would eventually come out and I'd find him lounging on the porch next morning.
Nope, not at all. Went looking for him this morning and he's gone. There's a trailer park behind my brother's house and bunches of neighbors. I spent the whole morning walking around and looking for him, to no avail.
I've alerted Animal Control and the Humane Society where I adopted him as he's micro-chipped so if anyone calls him in I can retrieve him.
I have to be honest though....I'm really not optimistic. He could be anyone now and the trailer park is a retirement community so I have a feeling someone will see him and take him in.
My first kitty died in February and I adopted this one in March...and now I've already lost him. I feel like the biggest failure of a pet owner in the world
