    I'm one of these folks who needs closure whether it's good news or bad news...

    I received a call this morning from a beautiful family who saw a cat like Muffin in their backyard near Chickoean (sp?) Trail. I went over and met with the family but the search efforts were not successful.

    If anyone would like to receive via email a copy of the poster I have distributed which has Muffin's photo, please do not hesitate to send me an email or call. I plan on getting some posters out around Chickoean Trail now seeing as it sounds like he has ventured even further from his Wingfoot Court home.

    I'm on Chickacoan Trail. I've seen cats go in and out of the cement drain that's in the middle of our backyards. They use it as a hiding place. I'll keep an eye out and take her in if I find her.

    Many thanks! I just returned from putting up posters there so you may see one and see what Muffin looks like!

    I just wanted to add that if anyone has children who would like to assist in getting Muffin home (or anyone for that matter!) we are offering a $100 reward for his return. Since he has been gone for two weeks now, I'm beginning to think that our greatest chance of getting him back is for someone to feed him and gain his trust so that he would go inside (he is fully housetrained!!!!) and then we can come and collect him. I've been following up on each sighting but by the time I get to the area, it seems that he has taken off or is just too scared to come out.

    Initially it had sounded like Muffin was likely hanging around Chickacoan Trail as I had received multiple calls over the weekend of a Himilayan seen in backyards near the trail. However I received another call last night from a family who had initially contacted me about sighting him to inform me they have since learned that another family who lives near the Trail does own a Himilayan which is allowed out. If that's the case, then Muffin is still out somewhere in Broadlands. Former sightings included around the Eagle Ridge Middle School which is in fact much closer to our Southern Walk home on Wingfoot Court. We appreciate all the calls we've received and very anxious to get him back home to us.

    Well, contrary to my previous message, Muffin may indeed be around Chickacoan Trail. I have received several more calls that really do sound so much like Muffin and his personality on/around the trail at the North Park playground and Catstail something court. Please, if you spot him, call at anytime.

    That is fantastic news... My fingers are crossed that Muffin returns home safe and soon!

    Again, the majority of calls I am receiving regarding Muffin are concentrated on Chickacoan Trail and specifically near Catstail Court. Yesterday he was spotted on the porch of a home of a family with multi-cats (indoor). Yes - Muffin comes from a multi-cat family. However, while he was on the porch, when another neighbor attempted to get close to him, he became very skittish and took off back into the wooded area behind the trail. With this cooler and rainy weather, I'd like to make an appeal that if anyone lives in this area and sees Muffin, if they can possibly bring him in and call me. I find that while I respond to each sighting, by the time I arrive he is nowhere around and/or hiding and too scared to come out.

    I also want to sincerely thank everyone for their calls of sightings as well as support.
