This is a cute story....you have to wonder about these cats sometimes!

Yes, he did it again. Thanksgiving we went away for the weekend. We 'jokingly' said "OK, now he'll have to wonder where WE are!"

My neighbor comes in every day to check in, and we do leave the window opened for Sir Bennett to get in and out. We've done this several times before, no problem. Except this time the neighbor wrote daily notes that Bennett was nowhere to be seen, food was untouched. And yes, I live in Vermont where it is below freezing and snow. I looked on the deck and there were no paw prints in the snow. (It snowed after we left.)

So now I'm wondering again, where he is, for an entire week. All I could think of is "Here I go again" and was getting depressed. At one point I regretted keeping the window open, but I know that was illogical because he goes out all the time. I know, and have posted, that the choice to let a cat outdoors brings risks. This time, though, he had collar/ID and microchip, so that was helpful.

What was worrying me was the cold, wondering where he was getting food/water. One morning I saw some birds, and that was to me a sign from God that he was OK.

He usually turns up early in the morning, so last evening at 7:00 I let out a scream when I saw him standing at the back deck glass door, lightly covered with snow flurries. I let him in. No collar. I expected a thin and hungry cat, but he actually looked beefier than when he left.

This cat is a mystery and he's driving me crazy!

He's back!!!!


Last evening I exhausted myself posting flyers around town, went to bed. At 1:00 in the morning my husband woke me up "the cat's back!" I was in a sleep stage, but bolted down the stairs, ran in the kitchen and there was Bennett! I had had a few dreams about him being back, the type of dreams that are so real, and I thought I was dreaming.

He was gone a total of eight weeks. He looked fine, no scratches or fight marks, and a bit on the thin side but not at all emaciated. He went somewhere far away, travelled many miles, and fended for himself, found his way back. And that includes crossing streets and woodlands that have coyotes, fisher cats, and dogs. He was not frightened or anything, just a bit on the hungry side.

Kim, cats are extremely crafty and know how to survive. I was told that he was killed by a predator, or chased out of his territory and was wandering lost. He was not lost, nor found. He came back. I am still hopeful that Twtichet will return.

Barb, Toonie, and all the others, your supportive words helped me get through the days. Thank you all.

This has been a horrible experience for me, and I thank God that Bennett came back. I bought two collars with ID tags (he's got one on now) and will never go out without one. I am sure if someone saw him they would think he is just some stray or one of a thousand other tabby cats. At least with the collar/ID people can know this is someone's cat.

I still have to digest the situation.
