Lucius.

Well, Lucius is now officially "Missing" - he didn't come in for his dinner last night, or breakfast this morning or his dinner tonight.  My only hope is that he's a greedy guts and if someone is feeding him pouches, rather than tins or biscuits (which he gets here, because pouches for two growing boys are FAR too expensive) then someone may think he's a starving stray and may have taken him in.  I'm very rural, this is only one cul-de-sac in the middle of nowhere,so it's not like he could have wandered too far off so he's either defected, or been catnapped because of his beauty or he's had an accident involving a fox or a shed or something.  Tomorrow I'll print off some flyers and post them through all the letter boxes, and put one up in the post office. The local vet has been informed, and I can't do a lot else, until tomorrow. But it's very upsetting. To say the least. I hope Severus doesn't bog off too.

I hope he comes home soon.

I hope that he's just ensconced in some warm little snug place with lots of food.

Oh that's horrible. I hope that you find out that he's okay.

He might be locked in somewhere and waiting for the owner of the place to unlock. My own little sod did this - got locked into a partly used garage for a day and returned after me (and the inconsolable daughter aged 9) had held a near-wake. Don't lose hope - and go walk about calling his name and post piccies on lamp posts: "Have You Seen Lucius?"

I've got my fingers crossed that he's just being a greedy guts in someone else's house and you'll have him back in no time. *hugs* Hang in there.

We used to have a cat called Willum when I was a child. He used to go off (obviously to a better gaff) for days on end, usually if a test match or Wimbledon was on. he once went walkabout for a fortnight.

I do hope your Lucius is doing the same. *hugs*

Thank you - me too. I always over-react even if they are missing overnight, but this is too long. I hope he's just in someone's house and they don't want to let him out or something.

He has been staying out longer and longer, which has been a worry.

I'm very sorry to hear that Lucius is missing. :-(

I really hope that you'll get him back. *hugs*

At least there's not many places to look -I'll definitely get some flyers done tomorrow. I hope I'm soon posting "panic over"

I just hope it's a case of his finding somewher he thinks the grass is greener or the food more succulent.

Cats - worse than children. At least you can ring their mobiles...

You're very much in my thoughts/prayers.

Heck, I get a little edgy if I've been awake several hours and not seen them. Get those fliers and whatnot out tomorrow, and hopefully it'll all be resolved nice and quickly.

Oh dear. That's rather worrying when that happens. Still, as others have pointed out, he may just have his face in the trough elsewhere, or have got shut in somewhere. Put a couple of flyers up on lampposts/telephone posts/walls, too - people often stop to look at a large white splodge, where they might ignore something on the doormat. There are a couple up round here at the moment for cats, and one for a stolen bike.

Also, of course, remember he may just have been out for a stroll or a midnight snack, and have been startled by fireworks (which are still going on here, don't know about your area), and have run away a bit out of his normal hunting grounds.

My best friend and her husband were adopted by a cat who they thought was a stray, until they put up notices just in case, and the owner turned up - from just across the road!

Oh sweetie I am so sorry and I know how worrying it is. Both my cats have pulled this before. Thunder was gone for almost 3 days before showing up. I think they go off and have kitty adventures.

**hugs**

Severus is all clingy, I think he's worried too.
