Also, what's this with so many babies/children having allergies? I haven't figured that out.
With this cat, I had wonder about it - what about daughter taking the cats too? Or other family members? They're perfectly mannered, nice cats. I just don't know -

You know, I will never understand what people are thinking when they opt to separate loved ones and their pets. If they care about this old lady, and she's gone to live with a daughter, (that's what you said right?), then why couldn't they make room for her kitty? People are really frustrating sometimes. I sure hope Sam has found a goodhearted soul to help him out. NinaGloria B. Lane wrote:Thanks, Stan - that's a useful and great list. The former home is 5.7 miles north of the foster home. The former owner was an astrologer.GloriaGloria, I read about lost pets once Jersey didn't show up almost 3 days.1. Cats are getting accustomed to their homes. I have read about cats that crossed 100- 150 km to get back to their first house. So, how far the house of the old lady is from the foster home? Cats have perfect intuition and it is possible that he might get back there.2. If the cat had a favoutite toy take that toy and make a noise with it when searching.3. On the flyers put a reward but do not specify the amount.4. It is possible that somebody is feeding that pet. Ask for people in the neighbourhood that have cats, dogs or love to take care of animals. Jersey had some fans in our neighbourhod that fed him from time to time.5. Cats might hide in all kinds of unexpected places. Search everywhere- even look beneath the cars, garbage containers (there is food there), etc.6. Presumably, being an inside cat he is not far away from the foster home. It is very important to let me know what is the physical distance b/n the lady's house and the foster home.7. To make sure he is alive, call the DMV or the MVB. If I cat is hit by car they take it.8. very important: Once he is hungry he might come back by himself. Tell the people in the foster home to keep an eye at anytime. I beieve this is the most possible outcome. 2-3 days, even a week later he might get home.Ok Keep me in touch...and Good luck. He'll be safe. StanFrom: "Gloria B.

Foster mom is only 21, worked at a Vet clinic, nice girl. She was packing to move, I was to pick them up soon. She didn't think he'd go outside (!), as he was upstairs, and propped the door open to move boxes out. Then she didn't tell me for a few days, embarrassed. Yes, I was very upset, told her she should have called ASAP! No, the lady doesn't know. I'm going to tell her son, but we probably won't tell her. She's 70, had knee surgery, and something a bout it (anesthetic) disoriented her mind somewhat - she moved in with a daughter. Probably doesn't need to know. A very mixed neighborhood - rentals, businesses, homes. People are nice, we've talked to them and passed out flyers. SIgh.

Poor baby, he's been through so much with his human getting sick and then losing his home. His foster mom must be so upset about him getting out too. Did he rush the door, or did she think he'd be okay in the yard? Does the sick older lady know he's disappeared, I hope not. Prayers to Sam. Nina Gloria B. Lane wrote:Hi - Belinda would you add Sam to the Candlelight Service, special needs list? Sam is lost. He belonged to an older lady whose family we know. She became sick and I found a foster home. The foster mom accidently let Sam outside last weekend, and he hasn't been seen since. Susan and I've been going over and passing out flyers and looking for him in the neighborhood. Sam is a 17 year old Siamese cat, never been outside before that I know of. Prayers and good thoughts and vibes are appreciated. Thanks - Gloria
