SHE'S HOME!  :Party 3:

Tuesday afternoon I leafleted the area and discovered that letterboxes are evil!  :Crazy: Lots had horrid draft excluder brushes which tried to bite my hand and made it hard to get the leaflet through.

At 2am wednesday morning I went to feed the cats and me - I keep weird hours - and there she was, waiting for food. Fred was purring his head off, he loves his sis and has been depressed since she went missing. I fed them all, she ate a little but didn't seem particularly hungry. Maybe she's found food somewhere. Lots of people round here put out food for ferals, so it could be that; or maybe she's been living elsewhere and they found the leaflet?

Either the leaflets or the weather drove her home. I'm glad she is.  :clap:

I'm grounding her for a week. Locked the cat flap and put out litter trays.

I can't find words for how relieved I am. I thought she might be dead or injured.

Thanks for the support.
I'm now informing all the sites I've put her on and Petlog and the vets.  :hear yee:

Just looked at that. She has a collar; Victoria doesn't wear one. Thanks for the tip-off.

Yes, I've read through those tips and many others I found when googling how to find a lost cat.

She's now on Animal Search UK
And the Missing Pets Register.

I'm hoping she'll find her way home, but I'll be proactively searching.

Victoria a very pretty, affectionate cat has been missing for approx five days. She is microchipped, but doesn't have a collar. Despite her loving nature it would be possible to mistake her for a stray as she'll do the "I haven't been fed for a month" act and eat even though she's well-fed.

She has a long tail which curls when she's sitting.

Please note: the pics are a bit old and taken before I decided to keep her and her brother.

There is also a youtube vid featuring them:

Sorry for the long url.
