Unhappy Missing kitten

Hi guys,

I'm sorry for all the threads recently.

Greg's cousins came today to look at the kittens, and when we got back from Richmond Park this afternoon I noticed that I could only find one of the kittens. I've found since that a few of the windows were left wide open (yeah, thanks kids), and I'm terrified that Gracie's managed to escape. We're tried looking everywhere in the house, enclosed spaces, behind/under wardrobes...

Does anyone have any reassuring stories of kittens who couldn't be found, or ideas of ways to find her if she's out? As we've only had her for 2 weeks she doesn't even answer properly to her name, and I don't know what to do.

I'm really sorry for the ramble, I'm just devastated, and I can't stop worrying.

Thanks,

Damian x

Re: Missing kitten

The chances are that she won't of gone far, if she has got out the window. She is most likely hiding under or behind something, she'll be too terrified to move far, thats usually the case. Is there any meat she likes ? put some in a bowl & call her gently. The only other thing, is, is it possible for someone to of seen her out and taken her......sorry to mention it, but it does happen sadly

Re: Missing kitten

I'm assuming she is very young?
Check drawers, they can climb up the back (of desk type drawers) and may just be sitting inside one.

I lost a 4 month old kitten once, he was picked up by someone when he was seen near a busy road, got him back via cats protection.
If someone sees a very young cat/kitten they will normally pick them up as it will be obvious they are lost, try all your local vets, cats protection and RSPCA branches.

Re: Missing kitten

Check absolutely everywhere!!
Open all drawers a kitten can get anywhere.
I thought I had lost both of mine and they had got in the top drawer and climbed down the back and were both asleep in the bottom one - when I found them they looked at me like what's the problem?
If you have a sofa bed they can sometimes can into the bit under these too.

Walk through each room with a bowl of food and have a really good think - she would be very frightened of going outside the house IMO.

Best of luck I hope you find her!
Emily

Re: Missing kitten

My kitten is allways going missing inside the house and I panic like mad but she is usually hiding, I have a wand toy and that has a bell on it and usually she comes running if I get it out. I dont know half her hiding places,

Re: Missing kitten

Thanks guys... I think that she *must* be somewhere in the house, especially as there's lots of noise. I'm hoping she's gone into hiding somewhere and she'll re-emerge tomorrow.

She's only 9 weeks old and isn't microchipped yet (the vet recommended we wait till we have her spayed - I'm regretting that decision now!)

Just off to have another look for her! x
