Hi all;my daughter's cat has gone AWOL;last night from the Peel Park area.It's a female called Mooney,she is long haired and black all over.She is wearing a pink glittery collar with a bell and her details on.Please keep an eye out for us,she was a birthday present and will be missed terribly.
 
What I want to know is where the hell has she been for 15 hours??? Anyone know a good cat whisperer? Honestly,pets are just a trial,if she had turned up 20 minutes earlier I wouldn't have had to tell Kelsey and she would be non the wiser but Oh no! Blummen contrary beasts!!
 
I am so pleased to hear that your pet returned home......I had a similar experience about 10 days ago......I have a big Maine Coon cat, he is used to being in the house and never stays out for more than an hour. We had the builders in and they came to the kitchen for some water and the cat legged it and was gone for over 12 hours.
I was absolutely distraught.....more so because that day I had had to have one of my other cats put to sleep. Kleenex must have put an overtime shift on just to cope with me!!!!
 
Glad to here it's back Lindsey. Margaret, I was going to ask one of those stupid questions but thought better of it. I am interested so I leave this for any about to ask:

The Coon Cat

One of the oldest natural breeds in North America, the Maine Coon is generally regarded as a native of the state of Maine (the Maine Coon is the official Maine State Cat). A native American longhaired cat the Maine Coon was recognized as a specific breed in Maine where they were held in high regard for their mousing talents. Through nature's own breeding program, this breed has developed into a sturdy cat ideally suited to the harsh winters and varied seasons of the region. :)
 
They are very large cats.....long coated, but they need much less grooming than other long coated breeds.
He is a rescued cat......not fond of the outdoors and with absolutely no road sense.
My Maine Coon is called MONTY.
Oh, yes and they are thought to have come about by a wild cat and a racoon mating....personally I can't see it. They have large paws and tufted ears. My cat has no tail...... but that is as a result of a fight with a dog.

Got any pictures Margaret?
 
I have got some pics, but (and I don't like to admit this) I haven't got a clue how to put them on the site......there, I've admitted it now.
 
I had to ask a girl to help me get mine up, so I wouldn't worry Margaret. Are they on your Computer?

Or they may even be on one of my flash drives.......I have so many pictures it would be impractical to keep them all on the machine.......I will go away for a minute and have a look.
 
I saw some instructions somewhere about how to download pictures, but I didn't have time to digest it properly.
When I find the pics I will try to post them to this thread.....so watch this space.

Thanks Margaret, that would be very welcome. It was Willow who helped me but I'm sure Mick or Len will offer their assistance. Maybe we could have a Pet Album in the Gallery.
 
Have just looked on my flash drive and on my lap top and they are not there.....that means it is down on hands and knees and search on the dusty shelf beneath my desk....who knows what will come to light......failing that I will take some more pics tomorrow and have a bash at posting them. I LIKE a challenge!

Good for you Margaret. I like a woman who likes a chellenge..... :)
 
Glad to hear your cat came back Lindsay. They can be a worry at times can't they? Ours had an appoijntment at the vet's one day last week. Now normally every morning she sits having a snooze on a chair in the front room or she bugs me when I'm trying to read the paper or walks all over the ironing board as if she has more rights to it than I do (she hasn't learned how to iron yet though - if she did I'd appreciate it) but that morning she must have known where she was destined for and did a runner. We hunted for her but to no avail and so gave it up as a bad job and did a bit of furniture removing instead. I had to phone the vet and apologise for our absence.

Just before Busman was due back at work up strolls a very nonchalant cat with an "I got out of that one didn't I?" expression on her face. :rolleyes:

Would love to see a pic of your cat Margaret if you take one tomorrow. If you get stuck with the uploading there is a thread about it somewhere or just ask and somebody in the know will gladly help out. I'm usually online once or twice a day so you can nearly always catch me by PM.
