Autumn went outside two days ago, and I haven't seen her since. My pseudohusband (who's in danger of getting a pseudodivorce if he doesn't find my cat) let her go outside before I could take her to the vet for her well-kitten check-up, on the mistaken premise that cats can't stay indoors all the time because it's unnatural. I had let her out a couple of times before, but these were supervised play dates with Tommy (who now likes Autumn). I even sent Tommy to look for his little sister, but no luck. I hope nothing happened to her. If she comes back home, I'll never let her out of my sight again.

I'm sad

Oh, Vicki, I'm so sorry. Have you put out flyers? Have you checked with all the neighbors? Is there anyplace that she would go when you let her out before that you could check? I'll be sure to say an extra prayer for you and your baby Autumn. God bless.

It is so hard when one's best effort is undermined by the ignorance of others.
I hope Autumn is safe.

I hope Autumn returns soon with a playful "Did you miss me?" look on her face. Sending you and Autumn the TDK white light to lead her home. {{{hugs}}}

Vicki, I'm so sorry to hear this! I know how much you love Autumn. She may just be exploring her new territory and will come back when she has had enough. Do put out flyers, though, and keep checking with the local animal shelters. And tell your boyfriend that indoor cats are perfectly happy as long as they have enough stimulation. Hope she shows up soon.

Vicki, I have no advice that hasn't already been covered here (by individuals and in links). Put out food, call at dawn and dusk, put out flyers, etc. I hope Autumn comes home soon.

The big, blonde ape wants to compensate by getting me another kitten. What he doesn't quite understand is that I love Tommy and Autumn as if they were my children. Autumn's not just an interchangeable kitten -- she's my baby. Even if one day I actually do have children, my cats will still have a special place in my heart, and I will teach whoever I bring into the world that animals are wonderful creatures and our job on Earth, other than glorifying our Savior, is to take care of His Earth and His creatures. Unfortunately, it appears that children learn how to treat animals from people they admire (yes, I have to bring up that detestable Michael Vick). That is not to say that my boyfriend is cruel to animals; he loves animals, but as he grew up in a different time from me, when animal welfare was not talked about so much, he was just absentminded when he let Autumn out to play with Tommy.

Vicki, you and Autumn are in my thoughts & prayers for her safe return. Ms. B disappeared for 3 days when she was just a little thing and came running home late one night when I was outside shaking a treat can and calling for her. She was scared as heck for quite awhile and would not go outside for love or money. So I hope that Autumn does the same and returns, scared but safe.

Hi Vicky - I'm praying for Autumn's safe return soon. Jiggs was only missing for a short time yesterday afternoon, but I was frantic anyway since he hasn't been feeling well lately. I will think good thoughts and send hugs and lots of positive energy out to you.

Oh Vicki, I am sorry Autumn has wandered off. Sylvester did that to me one night. Thankfully he got hungry and came back seven hours later, plus I don't he went farther than the back yard off in the trees because he had residue from the trees on his fur. I will think positive that your furr baby comes back soon. Hugs and prayers.
