Hi All
this is my first time posting here.
So here is the story......i tamed an outdoor feral cat (10.5mths old) enough where he could be pet and never hissed or anything.
Was very calm around me anyway.....just hung out my at front porch and ate his food and slept in an outdoor cat house.
Well since his mom passed away on Jan 4th I decided to give him a chance at a better life (or so i thought).
Ive done pet rescue for 10 years and gotten over 15 feral kittens into good homes.
So this little fellow - Zo - got adopted into a new home about an hour away from me on Jan 14, 2013 and on Jan 20 the new owner carelessly opened the door and he bolted. There are 3 other cats in that house btw.
There has been no signs of him at all. Ive posted flyers, contacted neighbors, spoken to the nearby Church and School.
Any inputs? suggestions? hopes? Prayers will be greatly appreciated.
From all your experience:
1. is there hope? is he alive and hunting and maybe with a nearby cat somewhere
2. could he have dropped dead under the stress of being captured and put into a new house?
3. is there any hope that he might return to this new adoptive home since he was indoors for 1 week (although he refused to move
from his one corner nor did he want to eat)
Im truly heartbroken....never had a pet rescue situation go so wrong.
