Subject: Re: [Felvtalk] VooDoo is missing
Give Woodoo some time to get over being scared. Hunger and need for your
companship may bring him home to you. I once had a cat that stayed away
for 6 days. Then she showed up at the door demanding to be let in as tho
it was my fault she was outside.

Well, around midnight I heard my other cat meow and looked outside.
There was a big yellow cat that I have seen hanging around a black cat.
And, low and behold there was the black cat too! However, if it was my
VooDoo, he didn't touch the food I left around front. Tonight I will try
leaving the food in a more obvious place. At least if it is him, he
won't be hungry!
As for trapping, I am a bit at a disadvantage. We have a Japanese
hardware store in town, but I don't know if they have traps. Since I
don't speak or read Japanese, it may be difficult to find.
Our base police often put out traps to catch the strays. The problem is
if I ask them to help, I might be committing another kitty to a death
sentence. On base they put them to sleep after 72 hours. We don't have
any kind of local rescue at this time. I got some information from
another base and want to see if I can start some kind of foster/rescue
program. There are strays here and there around the base. Also, (I
know you will all gasp) people move back to the states and actually leave
their babies! So, at this point, I hate to ask for traps to be put out.
Although, after another day or two his wellbeing will be my first
priority.
Thanks again for all of your suggestions! ( I will check out the Facebook
groups to see if any of them are local and can help with our other
issues!)
Melinda, Fuji and VooDoo
