Hello,
I've already posted in another area about my exclusively indoor cat who got out 10 days ago. She's showed up on the surveillance camera and I think she's still hiding in the yard and have been receiving advice on how to trap her and/or lure her back in. This has actually happened twice before but the prior times we were able to lure her back inside within a few days. She was born feral and is extremely anxious and skittish. I adopted her (and her brother Link) from a cat rescue agency when they were 6 months old and worked very hard to gain their trust. I love their quirks.
Anyway, I'm super sad and feel extremely guilty (although I wasn't the one who left the door ajar) and just need to have a place to express my feelings and maybe get some encouragement. I was heartened to read some articles that cats can stay hidden for weeks. Attaching a few pictures of her.....her name is Navi and she's about 5 years old. I still have her brother Link, which is a comfort, but I can tell he misses her too.
