The adventures of Columbus

Oliver's main goal in his little life has been to get out. Well, maybe to eat, to snuggle lately...and then to get outside! Our house backs up to 10 acres of woods, and we see coyotes and fox all the time. For this reason we decided to make him an indoor cat. Well, he has always tried to get outside and finally got his wish 2 days ago. We had friends over, someone left the garage door open, and he was out for hours before we started our search. Normallly when he "escapes" we either see him, or we are right on his heels, and with a little coaxing and food, he pauses long enough to scoop him up.

Well this time he was no where to be found once we began calling him and looking around. We had thunderstorms all weekend and no sign of Oliver. We printed out the LostPet poster, which was easy even for a technically challenged person like me. Home Again's suggestions, info, and poster was invaluable in keeping our family productive and focused in our search for Oliver.

After reading about indoor cats, and the personality profiles of cats, we were deciding between two personalities...one which often came back after a few days. Oliver has become a lot more curious and outgoing in his fifth year since we added two other cats to our household...before that he was often VERY skiddish and easily afraid and startled. So we really weren't sure what to do, but just kept up our search and alternated between sad and hopeful. We left our garage door open for two days and put out food. This morning he greeted us at the door, meowing and ready to be held...I guess he missed us enough to be affectionate and demanding :).

We are thrilled. I previously lost a cat to a coyote attack, years ago, so I was worried, but he had his claws and his fear and I guess those things helped keep him safe. Thank you again to Home Again for all of the information and resources. We put them to good use and it helped keep us hopeful. As I write this, Oliver is already asleep, in the middle of the floor (very unlike him) and looks happy to be home.
