I am in a state of panic right now -- my little girl is missing!

She never goes outside and I haven't seen her since last night. I have checked everywhere conceivable, and even some impossible places. She won't come out of hiding for treats or even wet food... this girl is incredibly food motivated.

We've checked behind the dishwasher, even under the plumbing in the bathroom. All closets, under all beds, in cabinets and cubby holes. I've run around shaking the treats with 2 other cats meowing behind me, answering the call. No Flutter answering the call though.

I have an outstanding stress headache and have NO IDEA where she could be. She never even tries to escape outside, and I didn't see paw prints in the dusting of snow. My main conern is that she's hurt somewhere in the house!

Please get those PT prayers going for her to be found safe --- SOON!

Oh gosh!!! I hope she's ok. The doggie wouldn't have touched her, would he?? Even if by accident??

No wonder you're upset, but I hope Flutter will come out of hiding soon. Could she have darted outside?

Be safe Flutter! :love:

Flutter, you let your momma know where you are right now! Do you hear me?

Many prayers that she lets you know where she's hiding very soon. If Cameron is over today, maybe he can do a search. He can get into much smaller spaces.

Is your remodel project still going? Is there a hole around large enough for her to investigate? (On Thursday, Pepper crawled into a hole in the ceiling we hadn't closed up from a plumbing leak. She wouldn't come out for a few hours.)

Hope Flutter makes an appearance soon!

Come on out now, Flutter! Meowmie is worried sick about you and needs to know where you are and that you're okay. If you need help, meow as loud as you can so someone can hear you.

St. Francis, please bring sweet Flutter back to her family that loves her so much!

It's okay, sweetie, you're not in any trouble. All of your PT friends just want to know that you're okay.

Flutter, I know that you know where you are, but your mommy doesn't and she's very worried about you. Please come out and give her a purr! I had one of my cats disappear for two days, in the hall closet. Walked out like, "What are you guys so upset about?"

Oh No, Not Flutter!!!:eek:
Our Animal Angel Search and Rescue Squads on the job with treats from Tonga, where they are staying to see if they cannot get Flutter to let you know where she is.
I had this trouble when I couldnt find Pouncierge the Pretty, and of course while I am looking high and low, shes sitting there wondering what her Cat Dad is up to.
We are praying that Flutter does the same thing.

Catnapper--here are some searching tips from catsinthebag.org for finding a cat that may be still in the house:

If your pet may still be inside the house, be sure to check the following:
• In reclining chairs — inside the ledge that supports the footrest when it is extended
• In box spring or mattress — with a flashlight look for torn lining in box spring or mattress
• Under platform beds
• Behind the books in a bookcase
• Behind unopened drawers in a dresser
• In the chimney
• In heating ducts
• Behind access panels
• Behind the refrigerator or stove
• Wrapped in the bottom of your drapes

Sending prayers from Chicago that she's safe and comes out soon.

Its been a looooong day! I had to work and left without knowing where she was.

I came home and ran upstairs to find her curled up in a basket. My heart did a few flip-flops, and she gave me this look like, "you're nuts lady!"


I am SO RELIEVED to have my grumpy little girl safe and sound. She's a bit annoyed with my loving, but its the price she pays for hiding on me and getting me all worked up.

As for home imporovements.... my house is a construction zone right now.
Kitchen door last week:

(notice the fake bricks on the wall and door opening in kitchen)

Wall starting to be knocked away

New door framed, showing bricks removed (leaving horribly cracked plaster exposed)

Also, THIS came in this morning, WHILE we were hunting for Flutter. Its a "trashed" sectional that a customer offered me when they bought a new one. As far as I can see, it only has one stain.... heck, I'll take a free $5000 leather secional with a stain!

(I do have a new leather sectional on order but its not going to be paid off for a few months, so this will do. Then we'll save it for when we move, put it in a man cave for hubby)

I had a feeling that that would happen, that you would turn around and there would be Flutter wondering hwat on Earth was upsetting Her Meeeowmie so much.
Mom, I was right here ALL THE TIME!!!
:love::love::love:
And thats a FANTASTIC Sectional for free, and I have the feeling that that Sectionals going to get a lot of use over the years as thats about the best photographi background for Cats and Dog I have seen in a while.
They will look so cooool against that red color!!!

Whew! What a tremendous relief to know that Flutter is present and accounted for! Do you have any idea of where she might have been?

Flutter, Please don't ever do this to your Meowmie ever again okay? Be sure to let her know you're sorry for upseting her so much.

I can not figure out where she would have gone. The attic door was closed. The basement was obviously open, but I checked it thoroughly -- its pretty clear now that we're purging a lot of junk. She hasn't been spending much time downstair because of Callie. she HAD to have found a hiding spot upstairs. I just can't figure out where she could have holed up!

I'm getting the evil glare from her right now. She's been in the bedroom all night (like usual) She is typically in the bedroom 95% of the time.
