NWR: KV: LOST MY KITTEN!

I'm not sure if this board does this my wedding month board does. Need some KV, advice and support. please.

But my tinny little 5lb kitten ran away last night. I've been up all night walking the neighborhood, the woods, putting up flyers, and talking to some neighbors. And I still cant find her. She is so sweet and has never spent the night outside before.

I know I probably sound like a crazy cat lady, but this kitten is very close to me. I found her when she was only a couple weeks old, her eyes were barely open, she was very sick and I had to bottle feed her.

This has been a very hard year for me, I've been very sick too. In and out of hospitals diagnosed with Fibromyalgia and Chronic Migraines. And currently being tested for MS.

She was like my little sick buddy. She is always by my side and I am just so worried about her!!

I live in the Brookline section of Pgh, if any one on here lives there and sees a tiny little greyish/brown tabby cat. Her name is Scrappy, she meows alot. But is very friendly and playful and loving. Could you look for the flyers and help her home or call the number on there? Or please email me at bruiser2428@yahoo.com. Thank you!

I don't know what else I should do, if I should call the city, do they pick up cats?

    Oh, I am so sorry! Frown I know i'd be devestated if one of my cats got out and got lost. I'm not local so I can't be of any help in finding her, but many vibes that you find your kitty and she has a safe return home!

    Many kitty vibes your way! I'm not local either, and have never had to deal with a lost pet, so I'm sorry I don't have any advice for you. Please keep us posted.

    Hi!  You should definitely call the city, as well as any local shelters that you know of.  I found lost dogs twice while living in PIttsburgh, and both times I took them to the local police department and both times the owners had picked them up within hours.

    You could also try doing something like putting up a post on Craiglist saying where and when she got lost and a description of her name/what she looks like.

    I'm so sorry, I hope you find her soon!

    Omg - I am so sorry to hear this! I'm OOT too so I am not much of a help, but definitely call the police dept - ask them where else you could call if she isn't there... I'm sure they would know best as I feel like they deal with this sort of thing on a daily basis. I hope you are able to find her! I would be devistated if I lost my puppy :( Does she have a microchip in her? If so, you can send out a search that way... GL and many vibes to you!!

    I am a crazy cat lady. Call the city- just to let them know so they can keep an eye out- although they really won't.  Call the humane society, a lot of people will just drop them off there if they see anything. I would say keep looking around your house- Scrappy is probably so scared that he/she is hiding somewhere around there

    TONS of vibes coming your way.  keep us updated!

    I'm so sorry to hear this. My cat got out twice, so I know you must be feeling. I agree, she might be close by and hiding. Do you have treats that you can shake so she might hear them? (my cat comes running for his treats) The second time my cat got out was from the basement window and I put some treats outside on the ledge. The next morning they were gone, so I knew he was lurking around the house.
    Lots of vibes to you! I hope you find her soon!

    I hope you find her! Keep us posted. I always worry that my cat might escape somehow. Everyone gave great advice. Maybe put some food out near your house.

    I am so sorry to hear this:-(  I know first hand how difficult it can be.  Do what jen said-call around to the shelters in your area tell them how old the kitten is and what she looks like, they'll call if anyone brings her in.  Good luck finding her.

    Thank you for all your help and advice!

    She still has not been found or come home, but I have tried to get her picture out there.
    I have been walking thru woods (crawling thru places I never thought I could fit lol), shaking jingle bells(her favorite), and food bowls, calling her name, whistling, making kissy noises, talking to neighbors, posting flyers, posted a lost kitten post on craigslist, and telephonepole.org (never knew this existed, I may just have helped someone find there cat- the one that has been camped outside my house all week hollering at my lost kitten), filled out a lost cat report with the animal rescue league, talked 2 the police, and every kennel and shelter in allegheny county. Hopefully someone will find her or she will find her way home!

    I'm so sorry to hear about your kitten. Hopefully she'll turn up really soon. I'm forever looking at cats from the local area shelters and I always see a ton of listings for cats that are just missing since they have already homes. Also be sure to check out the Western Pennsylvania Humane Society. Good luck!
