Nothing Yet

It’s been several days and I have not caught anything in the trap, not even a rodent. So I’m going to freshen the food and move it to a different spot. Hopefully I will have better luck.

An Adventure

Last night I received a call from someone saying he had a black cat in his apartment and he thought it might be India. He said it had green eyes and looked just like the picture in the Craigslist ad. I asked about the kink in her tail, and he said he was not really comfortable around cats and didn’t want to handle it. We were just finishing dinner so I said I would come over and see if it was India. I didn’t think it was wise to go to a strange apartment all alone, so I called Holly and asked if she would go with me. The kids stayed home with Geoffrey. We got to the apartment and the guys who lived there were very nice and showed us the room where the cat was hiding. She had wedged herself between the hamper and the wall. She seemed too small to be India, though after two months she could have lost weight. But I felt her tail and it was straight and true. It wasn’t India. Nevertheless, we couldn’t just leave her here. She was a very sweet and well socialized kitty, but she was conf...

Helpful Information

I did manage to trap a cat, but unfortunately it wasn’t India. It was my aunt’s cat, who is one of India’s sisters. I had been worried that India might be too big for the trap, so knowing that her slightly bigger sister can get into the trap is good to know. I also received a tip that a black cat had been sighted in the 1500 block of 36th Street, which is not far from us. I have moved the trap up there and will be checking it regularly. I hope the black cat is India and that we catch her soon.

Still no Luck

It's been a little more than a week since the last post.  I am moving the trap to a different location, as I had no luck in the alley.  I've also been checking the Humane Society every couple of days, but no India.  I really wish I had had her microchipped.  I had been under the impression that microchipping was very, very expensive, but as it turns out I could have had it done at the Humane Society for $20.  If only I had known (Henna is now microchipped). My posters blew down in the wind.  I will put them back up; and refresh my postings on Craigslist, Nextdoor, and Lost Pets of Whatcom County's Facebook Page.  I'm really hoping a neighbor found her and is keeping her safe, and then she might eventually get outside again and come home. Yesterday was 4 weeks.  Tomorrow will be one month.  I have heard stories of cats randomly coming back after as many as three months, and someone at the shelter said a cat once turned up at the shelter af...
