Our cat Max snuck into the garage and ran out the garage door when my husband got home.  He is a strictly indoor cat, so was terrified when we found him. Now he's acting like nothing happened, and he's even more affectionate. He's a happy kitty! We searched all over the house and the neighborhood, and handed out fliers to our neighbors. On our fourth pass we looked under our neighbor's boat trailer, and there he was!  After lots of tuna and coaxing, we were able to get a blanket around him, shimmy out from under the tight space, and finally get him into the crate. About an hour after I signed up for this site, we saw the animal control truck drive around several times. Even though this site did not directly lead to his return, we know this will help others.  It made feel us a little less helpless and we know it would have helped tremendously had we not found him after a few hours.
