The Missing Person’s Department.
My cat is missing since yesterday. He went out in the late afternoon just before the rain started. It rained uninterruptedly for eight or nine hours and by the time I went to bed, he was not home yet. This morning when I woke up, he was still amiss.This is completely out of character for him. Since I had him ‘fixed’, he has not slept out once. Before that, he was a bit of a stroller. He is notorious for stowing away in cars, and it is not inconceivable that he caught a plane. It is perfectly possible that he could find himself in the USA, Scotland or even somewhere in the East this morning. If you happen to see him, please tell him to come home. I’m sorry that I gave his food to the dog.
To assist you, I’m placing one of his baby snaps (they always get more sympathy), but bear in mind that he is about two years old now. He reacts to the name Monsieur which gives him a rudimentary knowledge of French, so he may even be in Paris.
He was last seen wearing a brown corduroy pants and a tweed jacket. He does hide behind sunglasses sometimes.
And while we’re on the topic, what happened to Virgo? Next month it will be a full year since I last saw him and he used to be a very regular blogger. Can anybody cast some light there?
Have a great day. I hope you have sunshine, we only have rain.

Yes, I am issing Virgo too! And Welela!
See, I knew a baby snap will get more attention and sympathy.
I'm making a joke of it but I'm really worried about my cat.
I tried to send you a PM about Welela but you have me blocked. I cannot tell you here on the blogs. It may be seen as a contravention of Rule 1. I break enough other rules, cannot dare to break another.
Cats are not that scared of water, they just don't like it. In fact they are strong swimmers. I saw a cat crossing the Berg River while in flood. Probably a female on heat on the other side.
You and blocked?? That can"t be.. I will check the case immediately..
Virgo who taught me how to post the YouTube in the blog
You probably have me blocked on age.
Many old blogers are missing. Old bloggers don't die. The just blog away.
Oh, There are full of curiosity in his eyes! a very special one with good-looking.So lovely.
Cats are clever creatures, maybe he is just playing hidden game with you and will be back soon...
I hope you're right. He has such a marvelous personality and is even obedient sometimes when it suits him.
No, I guess what it is but I will tell you on your mail..
I have lots of problems reaching people first. I normally have to ask them to drop me a pm and only then I can chat to them. According to what I understand, you should be able to contact friends even if they have you blocked by area, age, etc but it does not work like that with me.
I read his last few blogs and there is no indication that he had plans to desert ship. I think the last one was dated 18 or 28 July 2014. He was not too bad a guy. I hope he just got fed-up with us and that it is not something more serious. My understanding was that the boat he was building (and lived in) was not anywhere near ready for sailing, therefore it is unlikely that he's sailing the seven seas now.
What a cutie...too bad he is missing but he may come back to you just as before...fingers crossed...
Was wondering about virgo?...he just stopped blogging...I just thought he got his boat up and running?...who would know more about his whereabouts?...
I did not exactly check if the vet did his job properly, but I somehow doubt it if my cat will sink so low to mix with the local stray cats in your valley. My cat is a sophisticated specimen of the feline family and can recognize at least one French word.
what is more, he is a thoroughly bred cat (both his father and his mother are cats) and were not made on the sidewalk. I suspect that he was conceived under a car.
No! This is not my cat. Btw, Where was he last seen?
From what he said in his blogs I got the impression that it was not anywhere near ready to go to sea and I suspect that money was in short supply. He once mentioned that he was not having things all his own way and as a boat builder, did not have any orders in the pipe line. So I doubt it if he is on a world cruise. According to Ken, he is being missed at other social sites as well.
I hope he is okay...a little troubling that he is not responding to other social sites...
Let's hope he just got fed-up with everybody.
I think I will stick to croque madame until he returns home. All this fuzz over a chicken bone that he did not want to eat in any way.
My cat likes to express dissatisfaction by catching something. It is his way of saying 'is money tight, hen? will this help?' (He's Scottish) (and ginger).
To make sure I cannot miss the point he will lay his catch in my slipper, or perhaps just outside the bathroom door.
This little rascal used to do that as well until I displayed my satisfaction as well.
Virgo, we've missed him that long already? I hope he just stop by and say hi.
My cat is not a pet; he is an employee. Over and above keeping my feet warm in winter, his primary function is to eradicate rodent and large insects. He performs this in an admirable way, but his service contract stipulates very clearly that he must dispose of his victims in a manner that is acceptable to all.
On a more serious note, he is an excellent hunter. It must be running in his family. His late older (half?) brother from a previous litter was even better. He was still a kitten when he brought his first mouse home. Unfortunately he was killed by a dog.
I sure hope he comes back home soon. In accordance with his service contract, he will be deemed as a deserter after three days of absence without leave.
I just got home a while ago! Is your cat back home yet?
Yes, that is another missing face. I wonder what happened to her.
Even if she have changed her name. We will still spot her....

Are you sure your cat was: Happy there?
Just Saying!...
I'm sure. I never had to look for him. He was always around me. And he never stayed away long when he went out. No, he was happy here.
hope it works....
You don't understand our relationship. He'll probably be taking the notes while I'm on the couch.
here's his number meow-meow-meow
My cat does not smoke pipe. He smokes the occasional Havana and drinks pale dry sherry.
