My male cat went missing 3 nights ago. He is only two y/o, very timid and gets scared with any type of noise. We adopted him and his brother 2 years ago when he was 5 m/o. He has always been an adventurous cat and has gone outside on two other occasions but we quickly found him in a spot near our apartment building.

But this time he wasn’t in his usual spot because someone had locked it. I think that when he got out, he probably went back to his safe spot, but since it was locked he might’ve ran away somewhere else to hide.

We live in a street filled with apartment buildings, all next to each other, and big houses with big backyards. On the back of my building there is a garden with big trees, flowers and a bunch of death leaves and tree trunks. I have frantically searched for him there for 2 whole nights now, and nothing. Not a single meow or any glowy eyes.

We have put up his carrier with some clothes with our scent and his toys and food near the place where he usually hides (the one described before). We even put some other things that he can smell right in front of our balcony. For two days now, nothing has shown up.

It is important to mention that we have focused our search not only on the backyard, but also in nearby gardens, streets that lead to ours, and even construction work which has plenty of spots where he might’ve been hiding. Nothing.

I am trying to keep positive, but the fact that we’ve been searching endlessly and still no sign of him is driving me insane.

I just want my baby back and I am going into a deep spiral because there’s no way to tell if he is safe or not. He’s a very sweet cat and I miss him deeply.

Please I want to hear similar stories that might feel me with hope, cause rn hope is all I have to survive this terror.

Ps: I am sorry for the long rent, but I just needed some place where I could express my thoughts on.

scared of the dog in the bed, find my mooncake

Fall has arrived. Time for the annual game of mouse in the house.

Edit: You all are too clever for me!

I never thought about the cat photos. I only counted living cats. The siblings you see and a gray tail near the right shoulder of the bigger cat.

It's strange... the dryer is making motor sounds but it isn't running.

She's orange, can you find her?

In the phantom zone…I can’t reach her

We couldn’t find her for about 3 hours.
