Message from Owner

Jiji is from the Desaix/Fairgrounds area. He’s about 2yrs, all black but for a few stray white hairs here and there, with green eyes. He came to us an emaciated crying adolescent. We tried adjusting him to inside life, but coexistence with our other cats was not happening. He would be stressed and cry to go back out to his garden and back yard where he stays. He won’t even go to the sidewalk, he’ll stand at the edge of our walkway and fuss at me until I come from the car to give him his pets and dinner. So it’s very strange for him to be gone. Even though he prefers the outside life of a garden guardian, we keep him as spoiled and pest free as we can. If someone has seen him please let us know.

Lost cat 2026 —- - If kitty is an indoor cat it will typically stay in a 3 to 7 house radius of her home. - Indoor/outdoor cats can be up to 17 plus days houses away. - Kitty will hide during the day and only come out after dark between dusk and dawn. - Kitty may not come when called. - The majority of cats return home between 2 and 4 AM. - Leave your garage and porch doors open or leave a window open that kitty can climb through. - Make a scent trail in your yard and on your porch with your unwashed laundry and sheets. Hang items over bushes and on your porch railing. Let trail lead to your front door, open garage or open window. - Around 10PM put out rotisserie chicken (warm it so that the smell really carries). - Throughout the night get up and go out side. Walk the 3 to 5 house radius and call softly, listen carefully. - Look both high and low. Kitty could be stuck up in a tree or locked in a neighbor's garage. - A lady reported finding her cat recently. She set her alarm for 2 am, opened her front door, turned on her TV on low, placed an open can of cat food in the house near the door. Kitty came walking into the house. - One man set his alarm and got up every hour and another slept on the couch and heard the cat scratching at the door. - Another tip is to warm chicken stock and makes a trail of it from the street or yard up to the house. Even pour it in the bushes and trees where the wind could carry the smell. - Other people have used catnip to help lure their cat home. - Use a flashlight to look for your cat’s eyes at night. - You will lose sleep, but this has worked Good luck and don’t give up!
