Looks like she’s glad to be back..

I am so relieved to read this.

K.C. looks happy too!

neighbor's cat locked inside a 50 foot semi trailer that stored my belongings during house renovation. He had been missing almost a month. I have no idea how he survived.

We heard her crying three days later and let her out.

Yup, they keep life interesting.

(I think it was the most recent one) -

"You're supposed to be a lovable jerk, not a psychopath!"

Years ago our daughter's magical kitty Kimani disappeared for TWO WEEKS! I kept her home from school and we walked grids looking for that cat.

Sure enough, after 2 weeks, our neighbor noticed that he seemed to have 2 identical cats in his herd - where he previously had only one like that. Yep. It was Kimani! Living under his porch waiting for us to come get her!!

is a great story.

One for the books, for sure.

was blissful!

That kitty meant so much to us! Sadly she disappeared permanently right as our daughter was graduating HS.

She was a cat who would ride in the stroller or bike basket down the driveway; sit inside the dollhouse; tolerate costumes!

One in a million.

for dear Kimani!

Good for you. 'Glad in this case that the coyotes went hungry. Maybe they found some roadkill...

Give him lots of hugs and keep him close. How did Shadow react? Did she even know he was missing?

It’s lovely to get good news these days in the times we’re living through.
Many thanks for sharing.

I was just wondering the other day about such a product.

Oh will I have fun with this.

I am easily distracted recently, and they do help.

more attention than usual and hasn't asked to go outside. Thanks for your suggestion, but we'll leave him as is.

I sure know what that's like. Nothing is normal until they come home.

I wonder what adventures he had. He sure does look happy to be home.

my wife.

My wife's cat disappeared a few years back. Panic, tears, yelling. Printed posters and offered reward. Spent days looking around the neighborhood talking to people I never met, "Have you seen this cat?". Tramped thru the nearby wood yelling her name. Then we more or less accepted she was lost - our poor little calico.

Then sitting on the front porch three weeks later talking about her the damn cat strolled up the porch steps, hopped up on the railing and started to clean herself.

Of course we were elated, but - I'll be honest - a bit pissed too at her "so what" attitude,

I always told everyone she was my pet but the reality was that I was just a source for food and rubs behind the ears. She came and went as she please once for almost 2 weeks. I didn’t have the heart to make her an “indoor” cat so that wouldn’t happen, she was always an outdoor indoor cat. Had her company for little over 10yrs until she got ill. ….I miss her.

Congrats!

and return filthy and starving, giving me a "where the hell have YOU been?" look as they sauntered past.

Cats, man. It's how they work.

OK K.C. good job! Now would you like to tell us where you have been?

K.C. ...?

' Wonder where Gigi went haven't seen her since yesterday morning, she ate her food, then seems to have vanished.

I'm so happy for all of you.

Our cats are all indoor cats. I tell them they are trading their freedom for their longevity, and that it is a damn good deal for them and for me. They seem content to look out the windows.

rretturned. Please give him a hug from me.

Had a couple of cats over the years go AWOL for a time. One came home okay, the other had a broken leg that our vet did a stellar job repairing. The two dumps we took in late 21/spring 22 DO NOT go outside. Sure, they (especially the female) want to kill the taunting chipmunk or two but otherwise are very happy to be inside tigers. Face it, all felines are stinkers that have us wrapped around their little claw.

. . . wait for it . . . catting around!!!

Looks like my sweet feral. Mine was adopted less than an hour after being put up for adoption at the shelter. I miss her, but she’s in a better home than living in my backyard.

That lil' stinker! I hope you told him he's had enough adventures for awhile!

adventures for awhile!

'A cat has to do what a cat has to do'.

No explanations offered. Ever.

Sorry, I missed this post yesterday. But it's not too late to celebrate KC's return!
