Just want everybody to know that we FOUND SAM!
Someone called me at 9:30 or so this morning, saying that she'd seen our
poster in the mini-mart, and saw a cat like Sam's description at her
house. I went right over, and there was Sam under her van in the driveway.
Wow!
I couldn't squeeze under the van, but stretched out and gave Sam some Fancy
Feast. I had to slide out at bit and at some point Sam got scared and ran
into the back yard. We attracted some of the neighborhood kids, too.
Long story short, he jumped over a fence, went under a vacant house, where
there was a live possum and an armadillo, so pretty soon he was outa there
- I was glad! Headed for the next house and under it. By that time, Susan
made it over to where it was all happening.
Fortunately, the house he was under had only one opening, and had a pretty
neat large crawl space. He kept hiding behind the big air conditioning
stuff and we couldn't get to him.
Susan - in spite of spiders, dirt and claustrophobia - crawled under and
set a couple of traps laced with cat food, mackerel, salmon juice, and a
cup of milk. We sat in the driveway just about all day, except for a 2
hour break, checking under the house and eating junk food.
About 9:15 or so tonight, Sam just walked up to the access door. Susan
said, he's right there! We talked to him and I reached my hand in and
petted him, I think he remembered me - nd pretty soon grabbed him. He
tried to get away, and Susan scruffed him and got him to the car and WE GOT
OUR SAM BACK - YEAA! He was doing the Siamese meow-meow all the way home,
and it was great to hear!
Thanks to you all for all your wonderful help!!
