Hi! Sorry this is a bit long, just bear with me!
I just took in two foster cats, a boy and a girl who are siblings (both spayed and neutured). The reason I got them is because their previous owner moved, and she did not bring the cats to her new place, so she basically abandoned them. So they have been living of of kind people feeding them for a few weeks. They have been living in my neighbourhood since they where kittens, so they know the area very well. They are used to being let outside as long as they want, as this is normal in Norway, where I live.
Even though I had not had them for more than six days I decided to let them outside last sunday. Both returned home, but the female, Angela, returned home monday morning, went out again after half an hour or so, and has not been seen since. I know for a fact that the previous owner has not picked her up, since I have been in contact with her. I'm starting to get a little bit worried, but she knows the area in and out, so I don't think she is lost. I really don't have a reason to believe she does not want to be in contact with humans, because she is such a couch-potato when she is inside, she even even enjoys bellyrubs.
However, the weather has been really nice this week, so I suspect that she was just enjoying herself in ihe sun. But now it's raining, and she is still not home, which worries me a lot. We have tried setting out warm tuna and cold tuna, and have been walking around the neighbourhood about every hour to see if she is there, or if she perhaps went to the apartment she used to live in, but so far no luck.
She obviously knows where she belongs, since she came home for food monday morning. What else could I try? I'm afraid she is gone forever, but I might just be overthinking... Any advice?
