MESSAGE FROM OWNER

Gus always comes hme, I suppose everyone says that. But it makes me think either someone has taken him into their hme or he somehow got so far away he is lost. He came from a rescue in Kabul, Afghanistan....I picked him up at Dulles Turkish Air Cargo on Valentines Day. He is a cuddle-bug at hme but also curious and adventurous and was very unhappy being restricted to indoors. So after walking him on a harness for 6 weeks to make sure he knew where he was I relented and let him go out, starting in April. He's never failed to come hme until now. He is very precious to me. Thank you for your help finding him.

DESCRIPTION

Ginger/orange with distinct tabby markings and rings on tail. Collar (if still on) is blue/green.

Post on NextDoor and add the possibility “Someone May have taken her.” Also talk in person to neighbors, showing the photo. Go out every night at 11 pm and look in cat Hiding Places. The first week is so important you do these things!

We think he got into the sewer system and popped up somewhere unfamiliar and is now genuinely lost and probably hanging out with the feral cats that live in the system. Call about possible sighting of him going into storm drain in Bishop Ireton High School parking lot. There is a woman who feeds the feral cats every night so I will be here snd hope that he comes out. Have called into the tunnels yesterday and today but not sure how far sound will carry. Have done all the things recommended and also met a man with two Red Bone Coon hounds who are trying to track him. They got a hit on this same storm drain yesterday and is going to check again today. Waiting to hear back from Alexandria Animal rescue for advice on how to lure him out. Welcome any insights on that part of the rescue.
