Don't give up hope.
Some friends of mine had a young female cat who went missing for five months.
They'd pretty much given up hope of ever seeing her again, then five months later she pops in through the cat flap as though nothing untoward had happened. Very thin, very hungry and glad to be home.
Theory is that some neighbours had a removal van parked outside the day she disappeared (moving to somewhere about 200 miles away) and the cat stowed away.
Cats are well known for trekking miles and miles to get home, they can feed themselves, and seem to have a sort of built-in GPS.
Get neighbours to check garages and sheds too.
You've come right out the other side of the forest of irony and ended up in the desert of wrong.

Cat NavRule Number 1 - Assuming that you have a valid contract in place always try to get your poo onto your timesheet, provided that the timesheet is valid for your current contract and covers the period of time that you are billing for.
I preferred version 1!Comment

Whilst working away from home for a week a month ago the wife told me on Wednesday that she hadn't seen the cat since monday.
Thursday still no sign of it
Nor Friday when I called her on the way home.
When I did eventually get back home, I opened the car door to get out and there was the cat meowing at me
I have a feeling that with the car not being there he thought we had both gone away for the week and so hadn't bothered hanging round the house.
Of course, I told the mrs that the cat obviously just doesn't like herCoffee's for closersComment
