Yesterday we decided to adopt a cute female tortoiseshell cat from a girl who was having to give all four of her cats away. I brought her home yesterday evening and put her in our laundry room with food, water, litter box, toys, bed, etc. She seemed like SUCH a sweet cat... she was hanging out behind the washing machine and scared to come out, but whenever I would go in there and talk to her, she would start purring and roll over on her back. She seemed like such a sweetheart.
Anyway, when I went to check on her at 5:00 this morning, she was gone.
She managed to open the laundry room door just far enough to get out. I KNEW I should have locked that d**** door!! We have a cat door right outside the laundry room door and apparently she knows how to use them because she's nowhere in the house. I'm so bummed... I imagine the chances of her coming back are pretty slim.
When I went in to check on her this morning, I noticed some of her food had been eaten and the litter box had been used. We have two other cats so it could have (and probably) was them, but I keep hoping it was her that ate the food and used the litter box because I keep thinking if she was comfortable enough to eat, then maybe she'd be comfortable enough to come back??
Anyway, I just feel so bad for her being outside all alone with nothing to eat. Poor kitty.
