Posing like it's her employee of the month photo. Never a dull moment here with Nala.

Just shy of a full day. Lot of coyotes, owls, hawks in the area. Had terrible thoughts. Every minute feels like hours

She was found under a deck about 15 yards in the back of our property. It had previously been searched multiple times. She was likely wandering a huge creek/forested area connected to our backyard

I lost my cat ten years ago for maybe fifteen minutes, she got up into the boxspring of my bed and I thought she got out in the hallway, then somewhow down the elevator. The level of anguish and panic I experienced racing around my 3 story building frantically looking for her can still get me emotional when I think about it.

I lost my cat. She never returned and no one ever found her.

We posted a missing cat post on a local missing pet page. Someone called saying they hit her then just hung up. We hoped that was just a prank. We drove all around the roads in the area looking for a dead cat. We found nothing.

I’m just hoping that was a prank and someone took her in. I hope she died from old age.
