Lost cat in Ames... FOUNDDDD!!!!!!!

[RossHallHero]

I have to add to the missing cat story.
We have been keeping our Aggie sons cat for about a year.

It was born and lived in College Station for 2 years.

It had a long winter up here, pretty much lived on furnace vent.

Got out a window 2 weeks ago. Flyers, up, no sightings or response/

We had pretty much given up, then we got an email from the Craigslist listing.

Someone had found the cat and their daughter was watching it.

So, of course of all places the cat had gone from WDM to Ames.

Stupid cat, tries to get back to TX and goes the wrong way.

Oh well, she has 2 of the B12 down.

Maybe we need to send it along withe the guy visiting all B12 stadiums

I'll give you $375 for that cat.

After we had our kid my cat said "the heck with this noise" and just took off. 2 years later I'm sitting in my living room and hear several cats on my front yard. I look out and low and behold--my cat was there. She had run off and joined a cat gang!! I went out and got her, but when she saw the kid still there she was gone a couple days later.

If it took the back way from WDM to Ames via Polk City, it would have saved about 9.5 miles. However, it might have feared the mile bridge?

My guess, it took I-35...

I saw my cat last night for the first time in over a month. I tried to walk up slowly to pick him up, but after 6 years of being inside he was so scared that he took off running and I couldn't find him.

My boss let me borrow his live trap from work today and when I got home from work at 5:30 I set it with some cat food and cat nip. Less than 2 hours later I go out and he's already in there! I'd seen him once in a month and I caught him in under 2 hours.

Besides being really really skinny he seems to be ok. Good thing I had a self feeder and he had all of those fat reserves! Hasn't quit meowing yet and is still really skiddish, but still very friendly.

Thanks for all of the well wishes and for everyone who kept an eye out for me!

Talk about a great night!!!

Glad to hear this.

I'll let you know as soon as I conclude the questioning of the said subject.

Congratulations...I'm glad you found your little buddy. Hate to see pets get lost so it's nice to hear about a happy ending.

I'm sure what the cat really wants right now is a bottle of beer

Cats love beer AND cigarettes!
