    Adopted My First Cat Yesterday, And Now I Can't Find Him.

    I was on the floor petting him, my boyfriend came in the room, and put his hand down to get on the ground as well, and kitty batted it, hard, with claws :(

    He just swatted my boyfriends hand, like a half dozen back to back swats, with his claws out, and drew blood. :(

    Thanks guys!! We've been doing great!! Kitty comes when called most of the time, and he's getting a little more confident in the 'safe room' and I'm hoping to let him explore the entire apartment again in a few days. Unrelated to original post, but.. you guys have been helpful! I'm having...

    Thanks guys! He hasn't even went back to hiding in the closet! He's rubbing all over me and when my boyfriend comes in he doesn't get scared, he just starts rubbing on him too! I think he's happy we got him out of there!

    Guys.. WE FOUND HIM. He was stuck behind the cabinets like I knew he was!! I went to lay in the bedroom because I was exhausted from looking all day, and I fell asleep for a little bit. My boyfriend opened the door and had kitter in his arms! He said he heard cans getting hit together, and lured...

    Thank you mazie! I saw him last night around 9 PM, now its 5 PM my time. He went MIA before my boyfriend left for work, and we live in an apartment, if he got out he'd just be in the entry hallway. :\

    Oh!! Sorry to double reply but I just thought of something!! We have a security camera in the living room, and I can set it up to manual record! Maybe when I'm sleeping I'll find a glimpse of him!!

    Thanks for that advice orange&white! I've been working on my computer all day, the most noise I'm making over my soft music is typing.. I'll take a break here in a bit and lay down, maybe play a game with headphones on so I'm nice and quiet. Im 99% sure there's no way he got out, unless there's...

    Yeah, when boyfriend went to put his shoes on he started to sit down and I yelled "no!! He might be in there!" Okay, I'll try that when he gets back.

    Nothing in the litterbox yet, and no dry food eaten that I can tell.. I asked my boyfriend to pick up wet food on his way home (he had to go back after his lunch break) and I'll put some of that out. It's making me nervous because he disappeared before he really got to see where his food was, I...

    Hi rubysmama! Thank you. He's a year and a half old. The shelter said he was left in a crate in an apartment complex after someone moved out :( He's a bigger cat, he actually didn't fit the bell collar I got him.. which makes this more nerve wracking. The hole in the cabinet is just a gap...

    Thank you for your reply furballsmom! We don't have a regular vet yet, but my boyfriend's mom has lots of pets so we were just going to take him to that one. I was going to call and schedule a check-up tomorrow. I'll try that! I've been making all kind of happy kitty noises every hour or so...

    Okay, thank you jcat. I was just worried since I found that hole in the cabinet. I thought I messed up big time but not using the "safe room" method, but if he's okay I'll let him come out at his own pace. How long until not eating/using the litterbox is something I should be worried about?

    Hi everyone! I'm a long time lurker on this site, I've been reading about cats for months waiting for my boyfriend to finally agree to getting one, and yesterday was the day I got to bring one home! I read about the cat-safe room, and I was planning to keep him in my computer room, where I...
