False alarm... Still no sign of Dean.

I spoke with the girl and she said that she has seen this particular cat for about 3 weeks, although, I told her if she sees him again to call me ASAP. Did another round of on foot searching and speaking with neighbors.

Still keeping the faith and checking the local animal shelter hourly.

Thanks guys.

Take a piece of your unlaundered clothing and put it outside; the familiar smell may draw him out if he's hiding.

Have you thought of an animal communicator? I consulted a woman with psychic abilities years ago when Morganna went missing. Although the lady was the friend of a friend and not professional, she was good - if I'd used my imagination instead of taking what she said so literally, I might have found Morganna right off. As it was - I *had* to leave my vacation cabin with her still missing, but when I returned, exactly one month later - Morganna was on the top of the deck steps, waiting for me.

The others have given you good advice as well. Have you thought of setting a Hav-A-Heart trap? (Of course, you may get someone other than your intended, but it could be worth a try.)

Best of luck; the not-knowing is so traumatic. Prayers coming for Dean's safe return - and quickly.
