RE: Off Topic - Tipper

This might sound totally unusual – but just to explore all the options where he could be - I rescued a cat who was stuck in a sewer underground – thank god that the cat was vocal otherwise you would not know that he was there – it ended up that the city had to tear up the street for the cat as there was no obvious opening form the pipe he was in – don’ know how he got in there – but now he lives with me -   -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Barbara Lowe Sent: Tuesday, February 22, 2005 4:35 PM To: felvtalk@felineleukemia.org Subject: Re: Off Topic - Tipper   the theory is cats usually don't go very far-not more than a block or so. (theory, mind you).  do you have neighbors who might have had their garages, basement doors open at any time. cats can sneak in very quickly. i had my garage door open for less than a minute in dec. and my neighbor's idiot cat got in there. thank god she heard him crying because I never use my garage--too full of crap i have to clear out in spring for garage sale. On the outside of your fence, leave an old shirt of yours that you've worn recently and not washed so your scent is strong on it. i've read cats lose their sense of smell in the snow. good luck. i know how stressful it must be for you. praying hard. have you posted any xeroxed posters? sometimes kind hearted people take in what they believe are strays... barbara ----- Original Message ----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: felvtalk@felineleukemia.org Sent: Tuesday, February 22, 2005 5:18 PM Subject: Off Topic - Tipper   Please pray for the safe return of my Tip. He has been missing for four nights and I'm so worried I can't think straight. He is two yrs old and he goes out some but he doesn't leave the yard. My yard is completely fenced in and he weighs 20 lb. so I thought he couldn't climb over. I have searched day and night every place I think he could be. He is one of my group who is not felv+. I love him so much. Please keep us in your prayers. Your good thoughts always helps. I don't post very often, but I read all yours. I don't know what I would do without you. Thanks, Sheila
