As long as he returns home safely, I don't think it really matters what colour he is for the moment

OK I cant see what your problem is with the OP I deleted the last post because I think it is bad enough that she is missing her cat without the constant goading from you. This is a final warning on the matter please leave it alone

Re: MISSING!! Male ragdoll cat 2 years 3 months

I think it matters a great deal!!!! if the cat in rescue is a blue point and owners ring up saying theirs is a seal point...surley you get my point.also the op describes their cat as having brown points,but looking at the pics they are clearly blue!!!the rescue will look at the cat in their care and it wont match the description,surley when there are no microchips or other proof getting your verbal description accurate is vital???

But photos can show colours up differently and you have been goading all through this thread not just on the colour I cannot understand WHY you have to keep coming back and goading Jellybean.

Re: MISSING!! Male ragdoll cat 2 years 3 months

Firstly thank you to everyone that is looking owt for me.
And i described him as he is and baring in mind those pics are took on a mobile, which isnt the best as it cn dul or liten the pic depending on the white balance, iso settings and contrast settings and of course the phne. Photos realy arent gd as they never show anyfing in its true form or colour.

Re: MISSING!! Male ragdoll cat 2 years 3 months

oh for hells sake!

you cant always expect a pet owner to know the colours of their cat like some of us others do - years ago when i knew nothing about cats i would've had those same problems with describing my cats!! only now do i know what colours are what and how easy it is to describe them xx

Jelly - i hope you get your Rolo back and everything returns to normal xxx

fingers crossed they can match him from the photo's if it is him xx

Re: MISSING!! Male ragdoll cat 2 years 3 months

Only just seen this thread.

I'm so sorry to hear that your little fella has gone missing and I hope for you that it is your boy in the rescue so you can have him back safe and sound asap.

If it isn't your Ragdoll in the rescue, then I hope his owners reunite with him or he finds a great home.

So upsetting when you hear of someones indoor cat escaping, you must feel awful

Re: MISSING!! Male ragdoll cat 2 years 3 months

I hope you hear from the lady who is looking after this cat today, Steph, one way or the other but as I am sure you will appreciate we do need to make sure so far as we (the Ragdoll Rehome Group) can that the cat belongs to you (can't think it doesn't).

One way to check on Rolo's colour is on the papers you should have been given when you got him - his pedigree and/or pink slip (depending of whether your breeder held this back until they had proof of neuterng?).

Will keep my fingers crossed for you.

Re: MISSING!! Male ragdoll cat 2 years 3 months

I too would not have a clue about the subulties of colour and I agree that not only does it depend on your phone but it also depends onyour graphics card in your computer as to being able to distinguish shades.

That said, just in case it isn't your cat, here is some very good advice from another forum:

Quote:
Sam's fantastic advice if you have lost your babe:-

Here are a few things to try:

1. Posters, Posters, Posters with picture and details with contact number.....hand out to neighbours and anyone you see. Put up in local shops, pubs and supermarkets. Stick to all local lamp posts. (If it rains go and collect them and replace however it's best to put posters in plastic wallets so if it rains they don't go all soggy - the neighbours and council don’t mind you putting them up so much that way). Also put one in your and friends cars - it amazing how many people see them this way. Make smaller flyers and push through every letterbox on your streets and the surrounding area. It is a good idea to offer a reward … of course this doesn’t have to be money … a box of cho-colates or a bunch of flowers is just as good.

2. Knock on doors and ask neighbours to check their sheds and garages WHILE YOU WAIT … it's surprising how many people say they will check but as soon as the door is closed they forget. Knock on 10 doors either side of your house on both sides of the street.

3. Register him lost at all vets/catteries/rescue homes within a 20mile radius. Follow the link and click on the map to find rescues in your area Cat Rescue Shelters, Sanctuaries and Rehoming Groups - UK

4. Leave food out and a toy of his

5. Leave out an unwashed item of your clothing

6. Put the contents of your hoover bag on your garden - it’s full of smells that they will recognise and if doesn’t bring him directly to your door will at least hopefully keep him in the area. Alternatively if you have a litter tray that has used put some of the used litter on the garden as this will have familiar smells in it.

7. Contact the local fire brigade and see if they have had to rescue any stuck cats

8. Ask the local children to look - they are great for knowing all the local hidey-holes and love helping. Also have a word with your local post-person and milk man if there is one that delivers in your area. Also try and enlist the help of people walking dogs as they tend to go “off road” in the fields and parks.

9. Ask the local radio station to announce he’s missing and give out a contact number

10. Put an advert in the local paper

11. Contact your local environmental services dept (bin men) they keep a log of all animals picked on the roadside ... I know this is not a pleasant call to make and hopefully it will come back as negative.

12. Go out after dark when it is quieter with a friend / partner and walk round the local area gently calling every so often (give him a chance to answer you). Keep talking as you walk round that way if he is in the area he will hear you.

13. When you talk to vets and rescues, ask them about any known local feral colonies and where they are based. If Kitty has been missing for more than a few days s/he might have wandered further afield and might be “hanging round” near a colony for security (safety in numbers) and company. If vets/rescues know locations of colonies, these might be useful to get some ideas of where to start looking.

14. If you have Pet Insurance check your policy to see if they will assist with advertising costs or reward costs for a lost cat. Some policies cover as much as £1000 of local advertising and upto £500 reward.

Finally have a look at these sites - they are all EXCELLENT
