Earlier this month our neighbour across the street knocked on our door one night. Their inside cat had gone missing and they were so worried. He must have been able to get outside somehow. The neighbour asked if he could check our back yard, so husband M took him there to no avail. The next morning he came to ask again if we had seen anything. I feel their pain although I am not a cat owner, it is like a family member. After about 20 years, we exchanged contact info. That must be a good thing.
They posted the missing cat Tako on the neighbourhood website, I posted his photo here.
In a bit of good news Taco was found about a week later in a neighbour's back yard. It had started to get colder so it was a happy day. The neighbours brought us this card and chocolates to thank us for our help. We didn't do much but it was nice of them.

It's great that the cat is back, and it's great that everyone helped her so much. Good neighbors are always good.
have a good day, hugs Elke
How nice of them. Bet that cat has some stories it's not telling! Linda in Kansas
Sad cause but nice outcome! 20 years had to go by for this!
I'm glad the cat was found. Animals often provide an avenue for communication.
So happy they found their kitty and perhaps new friends as well
It's great that the cat was found.
Oh, it can be heartbreaking when this happens. A friend's cat got out through an open window, and it was several weeks before they caught her in a live trap. Daily they caught raccoons.
Glad you guys could help. We have a few cats around our neighborhood. I know ours were always indoor cats. Once mine I thought had gotten away and I searched everywhere, later I found out he'd gotten inside my couch.
Que bom que eles encontraram, sim quando criamos um animal de estimação ele é como um membro da família, Christine bjs.
I am so so happy that the cat was back! I have seen many of missing cat/dog notices on the way of my daily walk..some with happy ends, some ain't so lucky..
Thank goodness the cat was found. My last cat didn't come in one night and we could never find him. I checked all over. When he had gone out he was very crabby and bit me (which was highly unusual for him), plus he had a lump, so I wonder if he went off into the woods and died. Not knowing where he went is something I still think about on occasion.
Glad he's okay. If it were one of mine I'd be so worried. Mine are all indoor cats! A good outcome. And maybe a new friendship and nice of the neighbour to thank you like that :-D
It's very stressful for people when they lose a pet and no doubt stressful for the pet.
What a relief to know this gorgeous kitty was found, Christine! We do love our pets like family members, don't we?
i am very happy, i love cats
At least they found the cat. That was nice of them.
So lovely of them. But yes, a missing pet is cause for concern.
It’s heartwarming to see such kindness and neighbourly connection come from a worrying situation
They sound like great neighbors! I'm so glad they found their cat.
Linda they are so lucky Tako was found!
Pobre gatito ojala lo encuentren. Te mando un beso
So sweet of the neighbors. They were probably very happy to find their cat.
Glad the cat was found.
Our neighbors cat recently went missing. They posted flyers everywhere but unfortunately the cat still has not been found. The owner was heartbroken.
Pets are part of the family. Most community has pet group on facebook.
That is such a relief. Been there, done that...
That's the good thing about cats they can disappear for days and still be fine. Dogs on the other hand start to lose their ability to be independent fairly quickly
I am so glad the cat 🐈 was found.
Awww. I'm so happy that Taco was found; they must be so thrilled!
How wonderful that you were able to help. They must have been so grateful for your efforts and a lovely thank you too. I'm glad he's back home safe and sound.
Sounds like you did provide them with comfort and kindness. That's wonderful that the cat was found.
