Message from Owner

Ramses went missing Thursday night around 8-9pm. I start chemo Wednesday for BC and he is my only companion. I’ve had him as an indoor cat for 7 years. He is neutered. He is timid around strangers and afraid of cars and loud noises. There are flyers up around the area with information on how to get ahold of me if you see him. Please look in your grges/sheds and under porches and in bushes. I’ll also be walking around searching for him often. I’ve contacted animal control, APL, and the animal emergency hosp. I have his litter box, wet and dry food, water, and a pair of my shoes outside of the door to help him find his way . Please let me know if you see him. Thank you so much ♥️

Alex Tipsword yes that is my house. Bobby Vedder Weir is "working" when he's out there. He was badly abused but will say o if I am near.

Catherine M. Gaule were you the house that had some cat houses out back by the handicap ramp? If so, thank you for keeping shelters out there! I did see a kitty there, I think he was gray. He did not want to meet me though lol.

Alex Tipsword look under bushes, cars don't worry about coming down the driveway it is actually a full service alley. I hope i see him again. I have a newer rescue who thinks he has to patrol the block. I hope he didn't scare the kitty i saw. I'll put out some food and fresh water again tonight

Catherine M. Gaule I’ve been going out at dusk, dawn, and middle of the night most nights. I’ve tried shaking treats and brought a toy with a bell that I shook. I actually think I looked around where you’re at and there are just so many hiding spots and they’re on peoples property so I can’t just go in their yard and look everywhere. I’m going to keep searching though!

Alex Tipsword you have to get out at night. That is when they hunt. Use a flashlight looking for the eyes while shaking treats and calling the name. I saw a black cat, days ago now on Capitol next to 620 W under a bush. Literally around the corner!!! Get out at night please!!!

Put their litter box, bed, and some of your dirty laundry outside on your porch for the scents! Ask your neighbors to check their sheds & garages. Keep yelling probably close just scared. Take a bright flashlight outside after dark and look for their eyes in bushes, etc. Call Animal Control to see if anyone called or if they have them!
