Cat Trapped In Empty House

[Catty1]

I know that when I did my B & E for my cat, I openly admitted it and there was no problem. But every place is different.

Any chance you can talk to a friendly cop and find out if that individual can help you?

Hope kitty is ok til morning.

We got him out. I called the police & they sent ACC to the address.
When I passed the house on my way to the store, I noticed a violation
notification taped to the front door. What the heck help was
that. The owner lives in Brownsburg Indiana. As I pulled away in my car, I
spotted a police cruiser driving down the street & flashed my lights &
motioned for him to stop. He did & then followed me back to the house.
With a screw driver from my trunk he magnaged to pry open an unlocked
side window. We both called the cat & up & out he came. I always
carry cat food in my trunk so I poured out some which he gobbled up.
He's still eating from the canned food I brought back from the store.
That kitty was overjoyed to be out & purring around my legs.I might
try to have him checked out at the Vet & maybe join Mamma & Baby
kitty in the garage. Man, I am pooped.

Well done! I am so pleased that you have got him out ... and without being arrested. Lucky cat.

Lizbud ~ Thank you for doing all of this for that poor baby. He sounds like a great, socialized kitty. I best someone is really missing him. Your vet can scan him for a microchip. You can take a photo of him to the shelters and fill out a "found cat" form. That way if the owners are desperately searching for him, they may have half a chance of finding him. Unless the shelter is a "no kill", I'd advise against taking him there.
Also, ask kids in the neighborhood if they know where the cat lives. That's how we found out that Kuhio was at the shelter. We were too late to save her.

Liz, I'm SO glad you got the kitty out - well done!!

Thanks for the compliments but you all know you would do the same
to keep a cat from starving.
I can't tell you how emotionally draining rescue work can be. I just
become obcessed with the problems involved until I can see a way
around them. I don't know how people do this full time.

I do a lot of rescue. (Mostly I rescue them from the high kill shelter that for some masochistic reason I volunteer at.) This probably explains why I am on the internet at 2am with a belly full of heartburn and a lap full of sneezy kitten that was supposed to be put down this afternoon.
At least HE'S sleeping!
