No Spunk

One of the last photos of Spunk before he disappeared.

I sadly have to report that Spunk is missing. He has been gone for almost a fortnight. He had been up to his usual game of coming to the window, making Laurie interrupt her class to let him in, and then he would go through the house, back outside, walk around the house and show up at the window again. Then he didn’t show up at the window, not surprising, as he often found other things to get into.  When I came home from work, he was not waiting for me as usual. He wasn’t always waiting for me, but most of the time he was there. He had disappeared for more than a day a few weeks earlier. We figured he’d found a friend at one of the neighbor’s. Spunk is a social kitty and very friendly with strangers.

The next day after he didn’t come home, I called neighbors and stopped by and asked neighbors if they had seen Spunk. None of the near neighbors remembered seeing him. I called animal control, but they had no cats recently.  Since we have ended end up with cats for weeks on end that turned out to belong to neighbors several properties over we didn’t know, we are still hoping Spunk is at someone’s house and will eventually get out and come home.

  1. Awww no, Spunk, come back buddy! Recently a blogger’s cat was gone for about two weeks and he was found in a neighbor’s tree, the cat just couldn’t get down . . . you probably already know to have all neighbors look up in the trees . . .

  2. SPUNK, COME HOME!!!

    I hope he gets home soon. If Spunk has found another home, hope it’s a good one. That’s how I got Caitie. No chip, no tag/collar, was already spayed and box trained. Not a chance will Caitie ever see the outside again.

    If Spunk’s roaming territory is large, you might have to expand your canvas.

    • Hi David. Spunk did not have a wide roaming range that I know of. He usually stayed on the property and would occasionally go over into the neighbor’s yard to the west. But the few times he was gone until late or for a full day, I had no idea which way he went. He was pretty sneaky about it and would simply reappear.
