I have question to you cat lovers. I wonder how far can cats be (in terms of miles) if they were put at a distant where they manage to come back to their home. Let say they are stranded somewhere (but in good health) I have heard of stories (unverified) that they can find thier way home after being stranded so far away. Nevertheless, I would appreciate if someone can tell me a true life story of the feat they can show to come back home. Ok Take Care

Hi. I love cats and my story is a sad one. Six years ago, we had a new house built faraway from our old neighborhoood. Its gonna be our very own first two-story house. when e finally moved I have my cat in my lap. I was holding him tight because I knwo he's scared of the new environment. I was afraid that he would runaway because of the very unfamiliar place. In the car, I was preparing to get down and into the new house, planning to sleep 40 winks because I had class in a few hours. I was screaming for my Mom to get a basket or something to hold my cat but she was inside and couldnt hear me. So I just hugged him tight and ran inside the house so I can let go of him. He was so scared he started scratching at me so he could get away. When I entered the house I finally let go of him and I knew he'd dash and run looking fo a hiding place or something. The only thing I didnt knwo is that the back door was open so he got out and ran out the gate. I never got to see him again. I was hoping maybe he would find our old home but I never got to know because we didint knwo the next after us and I hadnt got a chance to get back. I saw him a month ago in teh city proper. I heard him so I calle dout to him. I felt that it ws him but I just walked away because I had an important defense to get to. I was already running late so I let it go. But Im still hoping. I wasnt even sure if it was him but somehow I know. Ill find him someday at least I knwo where to look, because I saw him pee/mark the side of teh wall of the store so I knwo that what his new territory. He would come back to it. I would come back to it. Hopefully, he would come back to me...

Hi there. I dont know what to say after reading your story. But its good to know how we feel and how much love we have for our cats. All I can say is that your cat will take care of himself and one day he will be back at your lap. Best of luck and may love bring you together again.

Hi there. We all have our opinions and our feelings. This post is mend for cat lovers and "believers". So if your contents is actually about dogs then i suggest you find or make your own topics about dogs. Just like humans every cats or dogs have thier own heart. Have you seen the CSI eposide where the dog ripped off the owner's throat ?
