Lost Cat - Bella in Luton, Beds, LU3 area (FOUND)

[Bella309]

Unfortunately our cat called Bella has recently gone missing for the last 48 hours which is very unusual behaviour as the longest she normally goes out for before coming home is max 4 hours.

Cant seem to attach a pic as getting an error message but she is a silver, white and grey British Shorthair with black stripes and spots, and a black tipped tail. She was wearing a black and white camouflage style collar with a bell but this may have now dropped off.

She is microchipped and neutered.

She was last seen in the garden on Sun 13th August at approx. 10.30pm. We live in Luton, Beds.

Please do forward and share on social media

Many Thanks and God bless all cats and keep them safe from harms way

Hello,

I hope you get news soon...but have you taken leaflets around your local neighbours? Asking them to look In sheds/garages/car engines?Pubs? Shops? Asked dog walkers?

You probably have...but these are things I did when my Sami was missing

I wish the best jane x

[Bella309]

Thanks Jane for the tips - yes we have done these things and will distribute leaflets to a wider area tomorrow

Hopefully she is got lost in an unfamiliar territory and someone is looking after her and will recognise her from the leaflet

[Samis Mummy]

I hope she's ok. Feel free to email...x

Delighted to report that after 11 nights missing our little Bella was spotted about a mile away from home and we went and retrieved her

She has lost a lot of weight but depsite her ordeal she is non the worse for wear

Vets confirmed it was indeed her through her microchip and checked her out

She is now getting used to her favourite spots around the house again and we are going to keep her indoors for a couple of days to accalimitise before letting her back out

In addition, we have invested in a cat gps tracker (Trax) which is expensive but should mitigate some of the heartache if she goes missing again

great news - was it one of your leaflets that did the trick? It can be so useful for others whose cats have gone missing to know what has worked for someone else
