A beautiful kitty, a dedicated owner and cool pet detective mystery!
Lost cat case, Hermosa Beach, California.
This dedicated owner read my "How to Find a Lost Cat" booklet and followed the advice for an escaped indoor only cat, but after three weeks, No sightings. She knew it was time to get a custom consult. Turns out, she woud never have found her escaped cat, Canolli without that decision.
In her Lost Cat Case Profile, Alyx gave me the key background clues before we talked. Poor indoor-only cat Canolli had run out the door when a plumber was there drilling 3 weeks ago. The loud, scary noise spooked and she got out the door.
Since there'd been no sightings in 3 weeks, I told her what I tell everyone: it's time to consider those things you never thought possible. Even the ones that sound crazy.
I gave her a list of five possibilities based on her profile details, the first being, "Call the plumber. Ask where he went right after your house."
After our ZOOM consult, Alyx told her mother I'd suggested her cat may have been accidentally transported by the plumber. Her mom laughed and said, "There is NO WAY Cannoli would go near a vehicle."
Still, Alyx was so dedicated to finding her missing cat, she checked it out anyway based on my advice.
When she called the plumber, he told her, "Yes, actually, when he got home that day, my dog was barking at the front of my van." He said he "opened the hood"and a cat jumped out and took off!"
Alyx texted me back on her way to the plumber's neighborhood.
Within two hours, she was able to find her starving little cat and carried her home.
Yes, I am a lost pet finder, but sometimes, like on a long-distance coaching case like this, I feel like a true Cat Detective ;-)
So happy for these two, and so grateful when people seek out and listen to my advice!
