New Kitten Gone Missing

[The Bouncing Bog Trotter]

We’ve put food/water and the litter tray out and have got every door in the house open (except the one to the room where the other kitten is). Plus asked our dogs to help. Running out of ideas….

I'm so sorry to read this. My grown cat once went missing in a house I shared with 4 guys, years ago. I actually blamed one of them for letting her out. After three days, I was disconsolately meowing for her at the back door and heard the faintest meow. She'd managed to squeeze between the soil pipe and the edge of the cupboard base, into the dead space beneath and for some reason hadn't called for help. Keep calling for her. Any chance there was a window open, even slightly? The same cat jumped out of my second storey window in the same house. Luckily the back garden was contained and she only broke a tooth, but wanted to put it out as a possibility. Is her sister adjusted enough that you can put her back in daughter's bedroom, in case her calling instigates a response?

So sorry she’s gone missing it’s devastating to lose a cat especially a kitten.

The only other thing I can think of is when my friends cat went missing I think they engaged a search dog to help find it. In the end though they found it through someone seeing a lost poster. An old lady had been feeding him in a garden of a neighbouring empty house.

Sister once found her cat behind the fixed bath panel. The cat had managed to get there by following the water pipes from the airing cupboard.

Do you know anyone with an infra red camera or could you buy a cheapish one? It might help you locate the kitten by looking for any heat spots

How heartbreaking. I hope the kitten turns up soon.

I took on 2 feral kittens a couple of months ago and the smaller of the two managed to squeeze through the tiniest gap within hours of arriving.

I only managed to catch her as her brother was crying for her and she eventually popped out of her hiding place when she thought the coast was clear.

Can you borrow a wildlife camera and set it up in the room to see if you can spot her?

One of mine was very timid to start with and would only eat/use the litter tray when he thought I wasn’t around, and even then it took a few days before he was hungry enough to eat.

My daughter’s bedroom is tiny, just a bed, wardrobe, bedside table and bookcase. There is still no sign of kitten and realistically, if she is stuck somewhere, we won’t find her alive. We hope she got out of the house somehow and is coping as a feral rather than being stuck. We’ve had our dogs looking and there really is no trace of her. The litter tray is unused and the food uneaten. So incredibly sad and we are all distraught.

I’m so sorry for you, what a nightmare. I second having a friend or someone else come in to search with fresh eyes, if not already done. My neighbour asked for help when she lost her new rescue in the house, she had been looking for a long time, but I found him quite quickly. I’m not suggesting you’ve not been thorough but sometimes new eyes see differently.

Hugs to you and your daughter.

They are masters at hiding I would get a few cameras.
