I wonder if you could find someone who actually has a really clever sniffer dog. If they can sniff out trapped bodies in earthquakes I wonder if they could sniff out dead cat?

Maybe we will see a post from Mrs Squallous:

"My husband went down to the basement looking for our missing cat. It’s been nearly a week now and I am getting concerned that he may be trapped. Can anyone advise the best way to check?

ps. There were some banging noises but they have stopped now."
