Lost gray cat, please help! He responds to both the names “Puddle” and “Finn”. Hello, this is quite a desperate plea and last resort. My soul cat (who I’ve had since I was 6) went missing about a little over a year ago (May 2025). At the time I was out of town at college and didn’t have a Nextdoor account (nor know much about it), and was unable to do much. He is old, but wasn’t experiencing any symptoms of decline in health, and his brother (from the same litter) is still doing great. Given his good health and his always having been so well taken care of, my family suspects someone might have snatched him, potentially thinking he was a stray. He has a very thick, dense, double-coat and mellow personality, but does enjoy adventuring in bushes and weeds and may have at the time had a few mats in his fur (an ongoing struggle we had with him, because he hates being groomed), which may have contributed to him looking like a stray. As stated above, I shared an incredible bond with him (I picked him at a shelter as a kid and felt like, truly, he picked me), and I know that his litter brother misses him and is lonely. It would give me great peace if anyone has any info on him (whether he past or is alive) or his whereabouts, as I feel that I cannot even grieve him without truly knowing what happened to him. Given the time that has past, I know it is a stretch that anyone will have any info, but nonetheless I wanted to try something. Please contact me if you know ANYTHING. Thank you!
