View Full Version : Zazou is MISSING !!!!! **GOOD NEWS**
Maya & Inka's mommy

OMG, it is 11.20 pm, and my Zazou is missing... :eek: . She loves to be outside in the garden, so she often refuses to come inside for lunch, or whenever we call her. Today she went outside after lunch, and she didn't come back since. Bernard saw her running around 5 pm; one of our neighbours suddenly started to mow his grass (he has a very noisy mower). Zazou is extremely scared for noisy things, so she must have fled as soon as the noise started..... :eek: . We think she jumped over the fence in panic.... :( . We hoped she would return once all was quiet again, but she didn't; she even didn't come for her dinner.... :(
Poor Zazou, please come to our patio as soon as possible! Mommy put out some food and water for you there
Please pray that she finds her way back home..... ; She has an address-case on her collar; but I am afraid nobody will be able to pick her up, as she is so scared for strangers.... . Oh my, I don't think I will get much sleep tonight....

Oh no! Lut I'll be sending prayers your way that she just decided to take an extra long kitty stroll. Please update us if you find her, I know lots of us here are going to worry with you until we know that she is found.
Come home Zazou!

Come home Zazou!
I am sure that now things have quietened down that Zazou will come back to the garden. She knows she is safe there. What is your weather like tonight? That makes a difference to whether they want to come back in or not.

Oh poor, scared baby. :( I am so sorry she was frightened away by
that noise.I also think she might come back after things quiet down.I would
still be worried for her the whole time. I pray that Zazou finds the way home
soon.

This will be Tubby 2s first job on the Pet Angel Search and Recue Squad, and as soon as things quiet down, they will steer Zazou home to her loving Meeowmie.
A can of Tuna Fish on the Porch would be appreciated.

Lut,
We have all paws crossed here for Zazou's safe return home. If she was startled perhaps she found somewhere close to hide for a while and will come back into the garden when she settles down.
I know how worried you and Bernard must be for her. Please keep us posted and try to get some rest.
Hugs to both of you.

Oh My! This is dreadful! Poor baby being terrified of that noise and her running off out of fear. Poor Zazou! Lets just hope she didn't keep running until she could no longer hear that dreadful noise, but hid under something where she felt safe and is close to home.
Prayers for her safe and speedy return and ((((HUGS)))) for her Mommie and Dad!

Oh no, Lut, how scary!!! :(
Yes, it sounds as if she was scared of the lawn mower and fled, and maybe she's hiding somewhere now.
Please come home, Zazou!!!
I'll keep her in my thoughts tonight and hope for a safe return!!

Lut, I know how badly these things frighten you worrying about Zazou's well being.
I am hoping she is in a safe place and will return. Have you taken a box of crunchies outside and shaken it? This sound used to bring my kitty running especially when he was hungry.
I will watch this thread for the GOOD NEWS! - that Zazou has returned.
Cats tend to dive into the nearest safe looking place when they are frightened, she's probably not far away at all but is too scared to move from her safe spot. Fingers and claws crossed that you find her soon.

Maya & Inka's mommy
07-08-2006, 07:42 PM
It is 2.35 am now. I cannot sleep at all; I keep seeing her sweet face all the time :( . My biggest fear is now that she fled and tried to hide in some shed or open garage. Our neighbours let their garage door open all day today, packing all kind of stuff into their cars. They are going on vacation and will be leaving in the middle of the night (or they are gone already!). What if Zazou ran into that garage? It even has an attic where she can hide.... :eek:
Poor sweety, she will be so scared out there... ! I would love to ask the "Prayer Dogs" to open a line with heaven.... . Their prayers always do wonders...
I am drinking hot milk with honey now; normally I fall asleep immediately after drinking that... :rolleyes:
My hubby says it is my fault; I should have come outdoors to catch her before she could run away. Yeh, sure, how the heck could I have known that this neighbour would decide to mow his grass? I how could I know what was going on in her little head????
PLEASE, I need lots of prayers here... ; ZAZOU sweetheart, please come home, I cannot live without you :( :(

07-08-2006, 08:07 PM
It's not your fault Lut, accidents happen. Some things just can't be prevented so please don't blame yourself. I'm still sending prayers that Zazou comes home soon. Have you tried putting out something yummy for her like tuna?
jazzcat
07-08-2006, 08:51 PM
Oh no Lut, I'm so sorry. As I read through this I thought for sure you would have a "she's home update". Darn!
Lots of prayers and positive thoughts that she shows up soon.
Forgive me if you said, but have you tried sitting outside with Maya or Inka and calling for her or putting her favorite food out? I know it's late but if you can't sleep anyway it's worth a try.

I was thinking the same .... if she's nearby and it is quiet, your voice could encourage her to come out of hiding. Lots of prayers for you and Zazou. Please come home little girl - your mommy needs you.

Oh sis - she KNOWS where home is, and I know she will be back.
But I know how you feel - even worse than I felt with that kitten and that was bad enough!
Try the food and calling softly - she was badly spooked and will hear your voice and maybe see her friends, smell her food.
I have to leave for a convention tomorrow morning...but I will check in when I can.
PRAYERS for you and wee Zazou!
(PS remember half Gina's ark ran off - and they ALL came back!)

Lut, I'm sorry that she is still missing!! But please don't let your hubby tell you it's your fault, it was an accident, bad timing... I sure know why I cannot stand lawn mowers and the noise they make!!
OMG, I hope she's not in that garage!!
Please please Zazou, come back home, and if you are locked somewhere, use your voice so everyone can hear where you are!!
Lut, I don't know what you think about it, but I heard of animal psychists that are able to "contact" a missing pet, and help finding it...

07-09-2006, 06:12 AM
SHE IS BACK!!!
I was walking in the garden this morning while the others were still sleeping. Then all of a sudden, I heard a familiar sound: a kitty-bell! It was Zazou! When I called her name, she went back under the bushes, as she was afraid that meowmie might be angry.... . Then I sat down on the bench and waited for her to trust me.
http://users.pandora.be/bernardgabriels/images/meituinp.jpg
Finally, ten minutes later she came closer, meowing to me. I was able to pick her up and bring her indoors. Oh my, she was sooooo hungry, my poor baby :( . When her tummy was well filled, she headed towards her favorite bed and slept for at least 3 hours.... :D .
Thanks for all the prayers and good vibes, they worked!!!
I sure wonder where she has been hiding all night; she sure didn't get much sleep because she was so tired when I found her!
Welcome back home my sweety!!

Again, I am so happy for you and your family. Now YOU too can take a 3 hour nap. :rolleyes:

07-09-2006, 08:47 AM
I am afraid she has NOT learned yet.... . The others Inka & Maya always rush back indoors whenever we call their name. But....; NOT our Zazou!! As soon as she hears us calling in the cats, she stays into hiding, not moving an inch In fact she did it again today! After she had her long nap this morning, my hubby let her out again to play with the others. It was 11 am then. Guess who didn't come home for lunch???? :rolleyes: . I hope she will be hungry enough to come indoors by this evening, as I do NOT want to go to bed again knowing that one of my kitties is outside.... :eek:

Lut, I'm glad I didn't see this until now that Zazou is back. What a scare you had! :( I know exatcly how you felt, I've been wandering around in the yard lookin for Fister too in the middle of the night. Isn't it amazing how they can make themselves invisible!
Shaking the dry food, I find, only works if Fister is really hungry ... which is always way past my bedtime.
So glad Zazou is back! :)

YIKES!!!! little Miss sounds like she needs to be grounded for a few days!! I know, just like you Lut, I would not be able to sleep if one of the Clan ever got out and could not be found!!! Tell Zazou that she needs to LISTEN and not drive her Mom crazy with worry!!!!n I hope she will come when called!!

Zazou please don't EVER do that again!!!!
I'm sure all the PT RB kitties watched over her and led her home!!! :)
Whoa! I just read she has gone wondering again. Well, Missy Zazou I think you should be grounded for a few days. You can't keep worrying your purrents like this (or us either! we love you too) . Get your furry behind home, ok?
Maya & Inka's mommy

Tomorrow, there will be NO outdoor playing for you, naughty Zazou!!

07-09-2006, 01:26 PM
Your husband let her out?? After blaming you for her absence the first time round?
Since she has taken to not coming when called, I would keep her in - or make her your husband's responsibility.

07-09-2006, 01:30 PM

I'm so happy to hear that Zazou is back inside safe and sound. :)
I would ground her and keep her inside until she does better in responding to her name or you could limit her outside time to when you are out there to supervise her and can see where she likes to hide or even take her out only on a leash and harness.
Give Zazou a hug and kiss from me and tell her not to do that again. ;)
momcat
07-09-2006, 01:52 PM
Hi Lut! It has been hectic around here and I didn't see this until now. I can't even begin to imagine what a nightmare this must have been for you. Could Zazou have been hiding in the garden the whole time? Poor little girl must have really been scared to hide like that! How good to know that Zazou is home again - tired and hungry but safe and sound. Now it's time for you to relax and get some rest.
Dear Zazou, I'm so happy that you found your Meowmie and you're back with your hoomins and fur sisters. They love you very much and were so worried about you. Please, don't ever run away like that again!!! When something scares you, the safest place to be is home where you'll be protected from the scary things. I see that your Meowmie is putting you under house arrest for a day. You're getting a much lighter sentence than what you would get in Cat Court. You're so lucky to have a nice garden to play in. I hope you have already apologized to your Meowmie and Pawpie for doing that. Learn from this and don't EVER run away again, okay?
Your friend,
Groucho

I believe I'd keep her indoors for a day or two also, Lut, I think you need
a brake from the worry when she doesn't come when she's called . :D
I am so happy that she is back home - "indoors" where she belongs.
Having kitties is just like being a mother - you worry yourself sick - and then they finally come home and you don't know whether to throttle them -
or scoop them up and give them all the loving you can.
I wouldn't miss any of it for the world!!!

By the way Lut, your garden is so beautiful!!!!
Glad Zazou is home and safe thanks to the detective work of Tubby and 2!!!
Be a good girl now!!!!

I am so glad sweet Zazou is home, safe and sound! Now behave yourself Zazou.... there is responsibility that comes with privileges!
Oh, what good news! I'm glad to hear that Zazou is back home again! :) I know it must have been terrible when she was missing.. :eek:
