No confirmed sighting of Merlin still missing. I checked with local supermarkets and none of their delivery vans were in the area when he went missing. Merlin has literally just vanished into thin air.Last edited: 2020-03-02 19:34:51 by Wizard

Please try all he relevant advice on Ocean`s post. Her page no,. is 151165. I have put more tips on. Yes he could have been spooked by fireworks. And has become lost, and disorientated Or could he have climbed into a vehicle? Paws xd.

Extensive search of my area found no entrapment and where a cat is being fed I have asked someone to check if he is there. If Merlin were being fed it would be a dine and dash as he wouldn't go near anyone else and didn't even like visitors to the house.No sign of death either and my thinking is he is out of area. On the night he went missing in October (yes October) some fireworks went off and I think that spooked him. Plus being out alone in all the fireworks wouldn't have helped either. Pet owners are told they are killjoys about fireworks but when they go off in October and through November then at NY is it too much.

Good Merlin is neutered. The main two reasons a cat goes missing is they are usually shut in an outbuilding (They particularly like shed, because the like the smell of wood) Or someone is feeding them.
