need help : pussy gone missing !
my cat stopped eating a few days ago and I was going to take him to the vet this morning but he's disappeared. I can't find him in any of his usual hiding places but I left a window open.
I think he might have been dying as he's about 10 years old.
Do cats go off on their own if they are dying ???

2. They hole up and remain quiet when they're ill because...
...their instincts tell them that they're vulnerable to attack by other animals.

But 10 years old isn't that old for a cat. I hope you find him and can get him to the vet.

Good luck!

4. Check around inside

  • under beds
  • under dressers
  • inside dressers - pull the drawers
  • behind furniture
  • in closets especially under blankets
  • in the basement behind stuff

5. *bites lip*
I'd change the post title if I were you.....it seems to invite too many quick comments full of sexual innuendo, even though your post is about your cat.
