rickolsen: I haven't seen Colby since the last time I saw him in the carrier. I know he hasn't eaten anything because the food bowls are still full. I'm getting a little worried. Sept 19, 2023 22:32:51 GMT -5

rickolsen: The last time I saw Colby was about 11:15 Monday morning. That's 2 and a half days ago. I've never had a cat stay hidden this long before when I brought it home. Doesn't look like he's eaten anything either. I'm really getting worried. Sept 20, 2023 22:46:39 GMT -5

rickolsen: You'd think he'd be really hungry and thirsty by now. The people I got him from said they kept him in a mud room with a dog who gave him grief. That's why they gave him away because they wanted their dog. No wonder he's scared. I hate people like that. Sept 20, 2023 22:50:40 GMT -5

tunemonger: Rick, you need to find him and put him in a small room for a while, until he feels safe. Might take a few months. Sept 21, 2023 15:17:00 GMT -5

rickolsen: 4 1/2 days and still no Colby. I took a flashlight and looked everywhere I could think of. Nothing. Haven't heard a sound either. Doesn't look like he's eaten anything. I've never had a cat act like this before. I don't know what to do. Sept 21, 2023 20:16:33 GMT -5

rickolsen: I just found Colby. He's under my kitchen sink. I put some canned wet cat food in there for him. I'm not going to bother him. I guess it's a waiting game until he comes out. Sept 21, 2023 20:40:48 GMT -5

Admin: The forum was down for almost 2 days. This was a Proboards problem and there was nothing I could do about it. Sept 21, 2023 21:03:47 GMT -5

rickolsen: I did some research. When a cat is rehomed to a new environment their stress level and fear can get so high they may not eat or drink for a week. If they are of normal weight (Colby is) they are in no danger. I was so worried. I feel better now. Sept 21, 2023 21:26:10 GMT -5 *

rickolsen: Colby disappeared again. No idea where he is. He hasn't been out in the open since I brought him home. He didn't eat any of the food I put under the sink. I've never had a cat hide this long or go without eating this long before. Sept 22, 2023 23:57:55 GMT -5

rickolsen: I can't tell if Colby has drunk any water. Research says a cat can go without drinking 3 or 4 days. That means Colby should have died Thursday or Friday, but I've heard noises after that. Never had a cat hide longer than 2 days before. I'm worried. Sept 23, 2023 21:30:49 GMT -5

rickolsen: Looked under the kitchen sink again. Looked under everything. Looked in cabinets and drawers. Looked behind stuff. No Colby. I put out another bowl of water. Nothing. Sept 24, 2023 2:08:32 GMT -5

rickolsen: I'm going to Walmart when it opens. I'm going to get a cat diffuser. It plugs into the wall and emits a mist that is supposed to calm a scared cat. If I have enough money I'll get one for my bedroom and the living room. That should cover the kitchen too. Sept 24, 2023 2:14:03 GMT -5

rickolsen: I decided against the diffuser. Let him come out when he's ready. I heard him moving around, but I don't know where he was. Still doesn't look like he's eaten or drunk anything. Sept 24, 2023 20:19:11 GMT -5

rickolsen: I'm making Greek Potato Salad. It's getting harder for me to breathe. I got winded just standing there peeling potatoes. I had to take a break and catch my breath. Sept 24, 2023 20:22:50 GMT -5

rickolsen: Oh, this Greek Potato Salad. A great batch. I don't mean to brag, but I am an excellent cook. First made this in 1981. I've still got it. The secret is always use scallions (top or green onions) and enough salt. It take lots of salt. Sept 24, 2023 21:33:57 GMT -5 *

rickolsen: Also make sure you use enough lemon juice. Online recipes say to use extra virgin olive oil which is very expensive. I learned to make it with plain old vegetable oil. My teacher was a woman who grew up in Greece. Sept 24, 2023 21:41:02 GMT -5

johnnyb: It’s his only source of companionship. Sept 25, 2023 9:42:44 GMT -5

rickolsen: Colby still hasn't come out, but it looks like he's eaten a little something. No idea where he's hiding. I've looked under everything many times. Sept 26, 2023 14:46:59 GMT -5

rickolsen: Looked under everything again. No Colby, but it looks like he's eaten a little more. Still doesn't look like he's drunk any water, but male cats, especially orange tabbies, don't drink much. Sounded like he was moving around earlier. Sept 28, 2023 4:50:28 GMT -5 *

rickolsen: Still no Colby, but I heard him moving around earlier. Hasn't eaten or drunk much. Can't imagine where he's hiding. It's been two weeks. Sept 30, 2023 3:51:19 GMT -5
