[NAFDA] Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risque (and frisque), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.

He clearly wants you to stay in LA.
Switch the kitty?

The back door got left open somehow last night. I went out to have a cigarette and noticed Switch running off the back porch and Elliot laying in the drive. We herded Elliot in, found Ollie in the front yard and got him inside and then spent the next hour and a half chasing Switch all over the backyard. We almost had him a couple of times and he let his displeasure and reluctance to be caught by biting, scratching, and hissing. He's been gone for almost 24 hours and no one has seen him.
I'm trying very hard not to lose my shit.
Wow. That sucks. But remain calm. He may be hiding out someplace really close by -- cats are sneaky that way.
Does he have a favorite treat?
Perhaps if you just hang out on the back stoop and have that treat with you, you can lure him to you.

Human flesh, it seems. Other than that, no.

I've been doing that, too. Every time I reach for him, he bolts.
Then, do that - when he approaches, you retreat. Can you secure the other animals so that they won't run out the back door if you leave it open?
Then you can do the lure, approach, retreat thing until you get him into the house.
Good call, Sumi. I'll try that.
I hope it works!
Good cat-wrangling-ma!
Thanks!
