To all those that are still missing their cats: I just wish we knew what happened to them and where they ended up. Even if I knew they met their fate, i would be able to start the healing process. Instead I’m spending all my soul looking and crying for them. Please come home my baby. I miss you so much and you mean the world to me.
God bless you all

When I was 12, my male cat ran away from home. Six months later we moved about 8 miles away. Another year went by and I stopped at a friends house down the street. On my way to the bus stop to get back home, I walked past the old house just to reminisce. A cat runs up to me and it was mine!

Seeing everyone's comment about their cat finally returning home, I'm starting to hope that my cat will also return. He's been missing for 2 days. Please pray for him so that he returns quickly

My cat has been lost for a month, I miss her so much.

Update: There has been literally no sign of her anywhere. She did have a previous owner, and we found that out when we took her to the vet a long while ago. There are other feral cats in my area, so I was starting to think she had either gotten into a fight, or she had gone back to her old owner. I just hope that she's safe wherever she may be.

Congrats to everyone whose cat has come back. My cat went missing today. She usually stays in the yard and driveway when I let her out and I haven’t seen her since yesterday. I live in dense woods so she could be anywhere. Wish I could look for her but I have to work all day. I know nobody cares but I needed to vent. Have a good day everyone.

Edit: she came home after 4 days! I’m so thankful.

My cat went missing 5 days ago, just praying and hoping my little asami will come back to me, I’m feeling hopeful reading all these comments, I can’t take it anymore looking at her toys and favorite spots I burst out in tears, I’m hoping I can come back and say that she came back also

Edit: after 13 days missing my cat came back!!!

I had to take my cat to the vet, 6 blocks away from my house. At the vets door, the box broke and he escaped. I was 9, and cried for months. One day my mother woke me up saying: " look at who came to say good morning to you." There was my sweet Pumpkin, jumping on my bed and cuddling with me. It happened 6 months after he escaped.

Today my cat returned home after 1 week😭😭he was lost but he found his way home, and I'm so happy now.

[gidgetwifelife]

My 2 cats have been missing for 2 days. I have been crying since. But I’m so comforted by the good news here in the comment section. I’m praying that God would lead them back home. 😢

UPDATE: i found my cats!!! they were stuck in my neighbor’s roof. they lost a few pounds, but thank God they are now home! 🙏

[churchgir]

After reading these comments I’m starting to have a little hope that my cat will come back. She left yesterday evening and spent the night outside and now it’s evening the next day but she’s still not here. I am worried and really miss her. I hope I can edit this comment saying that she came back, like these other comments. Please pray for my dewy.
Edit: She came back!!! I’m so happy! She came by herself after 2 days. She’s pretty dirty but I’m just so glad she’s back. Whoever’s missing a cat, don’t worry there’s a big chance they’ll come on their own.

My cat went missing for about 10 days, and he had never ever been an outdoor cat before. He came back, unharmed and only lost about 2 lbs. We dragged his favorite blanket for four miles to “leave our scent” and after coming back home he was super attached to it. There is a chance your cat can come back home :)

I gave my cat all the love in the world, I am disabled so was with her 24/7, she always wanted out so I did so for short periods of time, then one day she took off out the door and I haven't seen her since, this was two weeks ago and I miss her so very much! she has a chip and I did ALL the things they tell you to do to find her....I hope I am so lucky as some others on this site and she will turn up for me. UPDATE: Pacthe's came back after 17 days!! were she has been only God and her know?

Statistically,  up to 84% of lost cats are found. Of these, over 59% returned home on their own. 75% of lost cats were found within 500 meters (547 yards) of home. The median recovery time of a lost cat was 5 days or less.

Update: SHE CAME BACK !! Literally sobbed lol but don’t lose hope if you’re in a similar situation! They will come back home <3
