Raven is missing

[Tonya]

The last time that we saw her was the night before last. We didn't really notice because she hides often, especially when we have people over here. She is terrified of the outdoors, so she normally won't even dare set foot outside. I am really upset about it because she doesn't have the streetsmarts that Ron does. (Ron was an outside cat before we got him.) The few times that she has went outside, she hides in the bushes in total terror. She must be so scared right now. Only we can find her, and we will even have trouble catching her. Anyone else would mistake her for a feral by her looks and behavior.

I am really worried about her. Please pray for her safe return.

Prayers coming your way!!
I would alert all sheletrs immediately in case she gets picked up! I hope you find her soon!

Prayers are on the way!!!! I would also call around to the local shelters and to the vet offices and make them aware that she is missing. I hope she comes back soon.

OMG!!! I'm so sorry Tonya! Prayers are on the way! Please keep us posted.

OMG, Tonya!!! I would freak out!! Hopefully she's hiding somewhere around the house so you'll be able to find her there. I guess when she's so scared outside, she wouldn't find her way back to the entrance door?

Best wishes from here for her safety and that you'll find her soon!!!

Most cats don't wander far. I lost a cat to an unattended doggy door and the cat stayed in the same block for about 3 months until I could trap her. She is pretty feral (still, after a year inside) and she had never been outside the house before. When I realized she was still around, I made sure food was available.

I hope Raven stays close until you can recapture her.

Prayers for Raven! Come home!

[sirrahbed]

oh NO!! I know you must be in a panic But, one thing I have heard so many times is that a cat who is afraid of the outdoors will stay VERY close to home. I hope and pray that you find Raven very soon, Tonya.

I believe that she went out the front door because Ron wants to go outside really bad. He never begs to go outside and he's been scratching at the front door all day. I know she's hiding in a bush somewhere. We looked all around our house and the neighbor's houses. I'm don't normally allow Ron outside, but I just let him out right now. Hopefully he'll find her.

She's made it outside a few times before, and Ron has had to escort her back in. She's frozen stiff unless Ron's by her side. (And even then, she's still terrified.) I'm keeping my eye on Ron, and he's just sniffing around right now. When he shows some special interest, I'll go look to see if he found her. I just have to call out the magic word, "Food!" to get him back in. I get especially worried because we have a rat problem in our area, there is rat poison everywhere.

That's scary news about the rat poison, I hope Ron will find her soon!!

I just checked on him, he's basking in the sun. He hasn't been outside in a long time. Probably since last summer. I let him out a few times while I was working on the yard.

Here I thought he wanted to go out because he was worried about his sister, and he was just jealous that he wasn't out too. So, scratch that idea. I know that Raven would be to scared to eat, so I don't need to worry about the poison right away, but if she was gone for awhile, I might have a problem.

Go GET her, Ron!!

Tonya ~

Are you positive she really got "out"??

I not-so-fondly remember the feared *escape* of Boots from work...

After searching, posting Lost Kat posters, etc -
the KAT was found - HIDING behind a desk...

He hadn't stepped a foot out of the building!

*Prayers* that Raven appears soon!!

Oh Tonya, prayers and positive thoughts heading your way that you find Raven soon. That's scary when they go missing like that.

They've done that to me before too! I've been all frantic, and then, eventually, I find them stretching and yawning in some odd cozy spot. But we've turned the house upside down. We even looked in the attic and under the house (because we had some pest work done yesterday.) She is deffinately not in the house. I'm getting more and more worried.
