Cat Forum / Health and Behavior / October 2005IKE - RB August 1999
It's now been six years since Ike walked out the door and never returned. http://albums.photo.epson.com/j/View?u=1777604&a746150&pq780259&Sequence=1&res=high ---MIKE--- >>In the White Mountains of New Hampshire >> (44° 15' N - Elevation 1580') > It's now been six years since Ike walked out the door and never > returned. [quoted text clipped - 4 lines] > >>In the White Mountains of New Hampshire > >> (44° 15' N - Elevation 1580') I remember when it happened. How sad. We never forget our special kitties.

My Siamese (RB 16) came to me as a stray about two to four years old, and stayed with me for 14 years. I tried for months to find her owners and watched the "lost and found" daily for a year but no one came forward. I was the lucky one. My present cat was found lost and starving as a kitten. She is now eight years old. It's unlikely that Ike found another home (except in the belly of a predator). I live in a very remote area and know most of my neighbors. I walk a lot and would have seen him. He was 14 when he left and suffered from asthma. When his coughing spells got bad the vet would give him a prednisone shot - which is not good for the heart. My two cats (Amber and Tiger) are strictly inside cats. ---MIKE--- >>In the White Mountains of New Hampshire >> (44° 15' N - Elevation 1580') It's now been six years since Ike walked out the door and never returned. http://albums.photo.epson.com/j/View?u=1777604&a=13746150&p=71780259&Sequence=1& res=high I remember the day when you posted he was missing- seems like it was only a few weeks ago. Its hard to believe its been 6 years. Since you don't know, with certainty, what happened to him there's still a possibility that someone took him in. Someone passing through the area and thought he was a stray could have picked him up and gave him a home. I've heard stories about cats traveling >1000 miles and showing up at their former homes years later. So, never underestimate a cat. Keep the faith, Mike.

So, [quoted text clipped - 3 lines] > > Phil I had a cat disappear when I was about 12 or 13, and discovered him - alive - when I was in my eartly 20's. A neighbor had kidnapped him and taken him to college with her. She then roomed with someone I knew from highschool who subsequently ended up with him. I went over to her house one day and saw *my* cat - 10 years later. He recognized me. I had a picture of him as a kitten, so we compared it - and it *was* him (I knew it was already). Just too weird. -L. > > I've heard stories about cats traveling >1000 miles and showing up at their > > former homes years later. So, [quoted text clipped - 13 lines] > > -L. Theft of a companion animal in my state is a third degree felony and carries 3-5 years or a $15,000 fine or both. If someone kidnapped my cat I think they would hope for a long prison term because it would take much longer than 3-5 years before that person was able to eat solid food and walk again if I ever go my hands on them. What did you do to the person who kidnapped him? A troll acting out his tough guy wanna-be fantasies on the Internet. > Path: newsdbm05.news.prodigy.com!newsdbm01.news.prodigy.com!newsdbm03.news.prodigy.com!newsdst01.news.prodigy.com!newsmst01b.news.prodigy.com!prodigy.com!newscon06.news.prodigy.com!prodigy.net!border1.nntp.dca.giganews.com!local01.nntp.dca.giganews.com!news.giganews.com.POSTED!not-for-mail > NNTP-Posting-Date: Sun, 28 Aug 2005 11:43:22 -0500 [quoted text clipped - 46 lines] > > What did you do to the person who kidnapped him? > A troll acting out his tough guy wanna-be fantasies on the Internet. A troll? Do you know what that means? You just spout that word off to anyone. Looks like you're stalking Phil if you're digging up 2 month old posts of his to hump.

He doesn't realize everyone probably thinks he's a jerk. Phil Thanks Phil. Ike would be 20 now and he was not a healthy cat so I assume he would not be alive now even if he had not disappeared. Tiger and Amber stay in! ---MIKE--- >>In the White Mountains of New Hampshire >> (44° 15' N - Elevation 1580') >Thanks Phil.

You're keeping his spirit alive by keeping your love for him alive. Phil
