Hope she's just found an extra-good indoor hiding place.

No, I cooked chicken. Untouched. She's either gone or dead, and we don't think it's the latter.

Oh no. Do you have a neighborhood listserv /FB group?

Oh no! I hope you find her! Is she chipped?

oh no.

She's chipped, and I consulted the animal shelter next door. I'm hoping for the best, but someone might decide to keep her since she's so pretty.

We don't have a neighborhood listserv (/shakes fist at communication committee), but I may email the property manager to see if she will send out an email.

I have the groundskeeper, his assistant, and several neighbors alerted. She's never left the house before, and it rained last night, perhaps erasing any scent trail.

J is bringing home a rotisserie chicken in the hopes it will lure her near. Any food I leave out will be eaten by the squirrels and chipmunks and further lure rats.

Can you borrow a trap? I've reclaimed Misha twice that way - he slips out but is too scared to come to the door when we call.

Oh no! I hope she comes back soon.

fingers and toes crossed that she turns up soon.

I'm not sure a trap would work for us. No one has even seen her around, and I'd worry what else we'd trap. She's not scared or shy.

any news yet?

Nothing. Can't use traps due to county regs. Flyers up, groundskeepers know, left flyer at shelter, hairdressers', and local pet store.

aaaand, we have our first crank call. This may break me.

People are assholes. I'm sorry.

That is awful.

I'm so sorry
