This went on for 7 weeks!!!!!! i really thought i had lost him forever, i ws so sad... then one night about 11.00pm I was in the bathroom, and I just heard this cry.. i shouted.. 'DUSTY!!!!!!!'... and sure enough it was him at the back door. I couldnt believe it. He was ok, and he was a bit scruffy and thinner, but was otherwise fine.
I have no idea where he had been all that time, but he came home eventually.
I just wanted to tell you my story to try and give you hope for your cat.
hope he comes home soon hun

thanks magicmonica for your reply its given me some hope xo
Is there anywhere she could have got shut in? Any garages or anything? The reason I ask is that a friend of mines cat went missing one Thursday night before easter one year, and he turned up home again on the Tuesday morning absolutely starving and filthy so we think he must have got shut in a garage or something.
Another thought for you - could your kitty get in if she was hurt? My friends other cat got run over and broke his pelvis, and he tried to come home but couldn't jump over the gate - he eventually made it home a couple of days later when the binmen left the gate open!
Have you tried calling the local vets just in case she's been hurt and someone has taken her in?
Hope she comes back soon!
As Kia says its worth giving the local vets a call to see if she has been handed in injured. Does she have an electronic tag? Sorry to say that another of my cats went missing over night and the next morning I got a call from the vets to say he had been taken in and had been knocked down by a car. They got hold of me quickly as he was tagged, he survived for a few days but unfortunately because of his injuries he didn't make it. It was terrible but I was so pleased that at least I knew where he was and what had happened and was able to bring him home to bury him.
Fingers crossed that she turns up soon and has an exciting adventure to tell you about.

am so sorry and i know what its like. we had one cat that went missing for 12 months (it was my dads girlfriends cat) and she had moved out by the time the cat came home - he was starving and dirty and full of fleas and mites but i knew it was him, my dad wasnt so sure because he was a completely dfferent colour!
another time we had a gorgeous tortoiseshell kitten, only about 6 months old and she went missing the day the fair came to town..... we know they took her because she comes back every year and it really hurts me that she doesnt remember us..... she looks badly treated too but there is nothing we can do as we cant get near her! we tred calling the rspca once and the fair had gone by the time they came round to have a look ! (grr)
anyhow, I'm sending lots of finding kitty vibes to you and i hope she comes home soon.
big hugs
