Witch, also try the Friends of Plymouth Pound - they take in MANY strays for adoption from all over the South Shore.

Don’t worry too much yet. They do come back all the time. Keep hoping. And if she does reappear and did go into heat, they can still do the spay even if she is pregnant. Don’t wait too long though; it’s a more difficult operation the longer she’s into the gestation period.

there might be a hope. one of my cats, Sophie, dissappered for 1 night then the next day we found her in the backyard with massive cuts. then we took her to the vet. the vet said she might live. the next day the vet says it’s hopeless. then my mom and sister went to the vet and put her to sleep. and to of my other cats still never came back…☹ ☹

**(((Witch))**

I just shed a tear for you. That makes me so sad. I know how you feel (see previous post). Don’t give up hope.

**MissbHaven** , I’m glad your kitty is back.
