still looking

once again... if you live in Williamstown and see this cat, please be nice to him and let me know right away... his name is Tigger and he's been lost since Monday.

UPDATE:   Found!!!   Craziest thing.  Late this evening, he just walked out into the living room of the family which lost him in the first place, showing no signs of being worse for wear.  Maybe he found his way back in, maybe he never actually left at all (just knocked out the window and then ran and hid under the couch)... we'll never know.  But he's back home and happy, and so are we.  Thanks everyone for the suggestions!

Always good to hear when a cat comes back.... Now give him some wet food and a hit of catnip....

Glad you got Tigger back. Keep up the
good work.

There's a song--'The cat came back'
Listen to This American Life

You know...cats are smarter than people and they know it (even if we don't give them the credit due). Seems another piece of evidence to that effect.

My cat is formerly feral and when she gets out she's almost impossible to get back. At least, until recently thanks to Dr. Pavlov. Every time i feed her tuna or something else she really likes, I ring a bell. She comes charging whenever she hears it.

If you end up wandering the neighborhood with the bell, be sure to start ringing only while you're moving towards your house -- otherwise, could end up leading the cat farther away.

Glad to see you got your cat back.

Our own cat did the same two years back; went away for one and a half weeks, then when I woke up one day he was sitting at the end of the bed, calmly licking his paws as if nothing had happened...

Cats!

That was the shortest lost cat episode ever. I read the post - then the update. Problem solved.

I wish all the other news I read were like that : (
