My cat has been catnapped by my new neighbor.
My poor Lizzy (pronounced Lie Z) is trapped in my neighbors house. They are new. Haven't even really moved in, they are fixing it up before they actually move in. Anyway Lizzy is one of those house cats that is tiny she really looks like a kitten, and thinks she is a lion. She darts out whenever the door is opened, she loves it outside. (She actually chased a black bear once.)She takes off her collar whenever we put it on her. I assume the neighbor thought she was a stray, and was being kind and want to keep her. My kids give the cats their cans every morning and Lizzy wasn't at the door begging to come in, but they heard her crying. We found her in the neighbor's window crying to get out. The neighbor's aren't home yet so she is still crying to come home, and the kids are staring at the neighbor's house waiting to see a car. I hope they aren't to sad when we go get her, she is very lovely.

2. Maybe she darted in when they left a door open and don't know she is there!

3. Neighbors still aren't home.
The cat is still crying and rubbing up against the screen so my 7 year old can pet her. Poor thing, I hope this teaches her butt not to run out all the time.

5. **update**
About 2 hours ago I saw that the neighbor was back and went over there. She said she didn't know the cat was in there, and we looked around the whole house and couldn't find her. I thanked the neighbor and went looking for her again. Couldn't find her. I came home made supper, and noticed my neighbors left again. I went out calling for her again, and I heard her crying at the neighbors house again. I just went over there and she was in the window crying. The screen was ajar and the cat squeezed throw, and she is happily at home. I think Lizzy hid when the neighbors came home and they truly didn't know she was there. The important thing is she is home now and finally got her can.

7. Phew! A firend of mine had her cat closed up in the neighbor's house but
the neighbor had left for the winter. It did not end very well for the kitty, who wasn't found again until late spring. :cry:

I am so glad yours is home! :hug:
