    I'm sorry to hear that, Emma. Don't give up hope, though. If you publicise him being lost as much as possible, then someone might eventually spot him.

    Keeping my fingers tightly crossed for you.

    FOUND HIM!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Got a phonecall last night from the lovely Roger of Grandiflora garden centre - he found him on the drive last night.
    Picked him up this morning with my niece and he seems completely unharmed, except for being super skinny.
    Dont know where he has been all this time but I think he must have been shut in somewhere as he was found about 1/4 mile away from where he disappeared.
    Thanks to evryone for all your help!

    I'm so glad that Faustus has been found safe and well BUT please, please remind your sister than it is not wise to take a cat with you when you go away from home if you can't guarantee that it will be kept safe indoors. They are territorial animals and taking them away from their home turf can be (as your sister has discovered) confusing and stressful for the darlings.

    That is wonderful news! Almost a miracle in fact considering he was lost away from home. You must have put in one hell of an effort putting the word out about him, so well done!!

    Like BitterAndTwisted says, it's better to leave kitty at home when you're away. They don't understand going on holiday (possibly because their entire lives are holidays because we spoil them so much...) My three go into a cattery - it's £10 per night for the three, but the peace of mind I have knowing they will still be there when I come back is priceless.

    I remember when this was posted original - I really felt for you -would hate anything to happen to my wee Sam.

    So happy he has been found - thank you for letting us all know.

    Was it because of MSE he was found?

    Not really - as he was found very near where he went missing the posters we took round were what made it all come together. Dont think he will be going caravanning again!

    LOL I think she knows that now! He will be catterying it all the way from now on!
    Alls well that ends well though....
