Missing. The post title you never want to write.
Dobson ventured out into the world 4 days ago and still hasn’t come back. We haven’t given up hope so we’ve plastered the neighborhood with posters, alerted the neighbours and registered him as ‘missing’ with the local SPCA and Pet Luck. We’ve also put his litter box outside in the hopes that he’ll smell his scent and come back. Truth be told, he already spent so much time outside (the world was his litter box), that his scent is definitely all over the property.
We’ve also been up and down the alleys and Whisker Patrolling like never before, repeatedly running into the usual cast of alley cats. Sadly, they haven’t been very helpful in locating Dobson. And you know they know something.
So yeah, it sucks to break the news that our favourite poster cat is MIA.


I hope he comes home soon! Fingers Crossed!!
Posted by Mary | August 22, 2012, 9:59 amOh no! We are all purring our hearts out that sweet Dobson comes home soon. Dobson, come home dear friend, we’re all missing you.

Posted by Brian | August 22, 2012, 10:58 amSome good advice in that post. We are all hoping for Dobson’s safe return.
Posted by Linda | August 22, 2012, 4:12 pmThanks so much Brian. We’re taking those tips to heart!
Posted by dobson | August 22, 2012, 10:08 pmI am so sorry to hear that Dobson is missing. Truly that makes me sad. I am hoping he shows up soon.
Posted by Cheryl P. | August 22, 2012, 11:23 amOh no! Dobson–that is so upsetting. Gemini got out once for about 36 hours and it was the worst of the Woman’s life. We hope he wanders back home soon.
Posted by Cheysuli | August 22, 2012, 11:39 amOh no, we sure know what it is like to have a cat missing. Keep in mind that he will be back. We had one leave for 3 months and just showed up one day. Sending tons of purrs. Don’t give up calling him. He may be shut in some where and can’t get out. We sure hope he comes home soon.
Posted by Marg | August 22, 2012, 1:45 pmOh no!!! So sad and sorry to hear this. It is scary when they go missing. I am hoping for a happy ending and a “found” post.
Posted by Linda | August 22, 2012, 1:48 pmWe are purring that Dobson will come home soon!!
