4631.0. "Lost Cat near Spags" by MR4DEC::DUMAS () Thu May 09 1991 12:06

    I am adding this note for my sister-in-law. The story goes like this:
    
    She lives in an apartment building off of Lake Ave in Worcester Ma.
    They are not allowed to have pets. But she has two indoor cats.
    
    Two years ago 2 cats showed up in the parking lot. An orange male
    and a calico female. She had kittens. The people in the building
    feed the cats and the kittens. They found homes for the kittens.
    
    Next thing you know she had kittens again. They feed and found homes
    for the kittens. They finally realized something had to be done. A
    couple in the apartment building took in the female and had her fixed.
    
    They loved her and gave her a good home. She is so beautiful and clean
    they named her Princess. But the guy believed she should still be let
    out cuz she would cry at the door to go out. So this is fine. She only
    stayed in the parking lot. 
    
    Last Friday morning they let her out and have not seen her since. The
    woman upstairs told them Friday night that she was on her way to work
    and when she got there a woman pulled in behind her and told her she
    was following her cuz when she was driving she noticed a cat fell from
    her car. This happened at the light in front of Spags. No one has seen
    Princess since. My sister-in-law has been up and down the streets. She
    has called the police to see if anyone hit the cat. Called all the vets
    in town and also called the dog officer. No one has any info on this
    beautiful cat. She also put a ad in the newspaper to run for a full
    week. They would love to get this cat back. Hopefully she's not hurt.
    
    The cat is a small female. Has multi colors of orange, brown, and
    black. Her tail is so fluffy. 
    
    If anyone has any info or has seen this cat, please contact me via
    vaxmail. MR4DEC::DUMAS
    
    Thanks,
    Angela

	I wish you and your sister-in-law all the luck in the world in finding this little girl. Hopefully the ad in the paper will bring some luck for you. I know exactly how you feel....I'm still searching for CAM who has been missing for almost a year. My heart still breaks... Keep us posted...Sandy

	BTW...I work at the Shrewsbury plant which is about 1 mile from Spags...so I'll keep my eyes open too! Sandy

	Perhaps the manager at Spags would let her post a sign in the store. Also she could leave a Xeroxed note at nearby homes and on light posts, etc. (At the houses -- don't put it in the mailbox, which is against some idiotic federal law, but tucked in screen doors, partly under doormats, etc.)
4631.4	Nothing Yet	MR4DEC::DUMAS		`Thu May 09 1991 14:07`	9
	Thanks for all the quick replys. I had told her to hang posters on the telephone pole's. Lot's of times people don't think of looking in the newspaper. She did go into Spags to check the board and see if anyone put a note up of a found cat. She said the board was loaded. She is sick about the whole thing. So are the owners. Not to mention the male is still around and they say he is so lonely. Thanks again, Angela

	Any news on this lost cats??? Worried feline mom... Sandy
4631.6	Update on Princess	FSOA::NGRILLO		`Wed May 15 1991 13:51`	18
	The woman who the original noter wrote about is my best friend and unfortunately hasn't heard anything. She is still worried sick about this beautiful cat and has done everything humanly possible to find her but with no luck. I just pray, as she does, that Princess is in good hands. Boo Kitty (a stray male who everyone in the complex has been taking care of for the past few years - and also Princess's one-time mate) took off for a few days this past week-end. I and my friend honestly believe he took off to look for Princess but did return day before yesterday. If I hear anything more too (besides the oiginal noter "Hi Angela!") I will keep you informed. I do pray for that beautiful Princess. She is a DOLL!!

	I would like to suggest that she also call the vets, police, ect in the surrounding towns...like Shrewsbury. I work in Shrewsbury and it is about 1 1/2 miles from Spags. A cat can travel that in no time! Just an idea....warm thoughts and prayer to help find this baby. Sandy
