Mu and I searched for two cats today. They had just gotten out of the apartment door when the wind blew the door open. They had been out about ten hours by the time we started. Pandora and Bear were indoor only cats, and they were supposed to move to California the next day. Mu found Pandora within 25 minutes. She was under a barbecue cover. I’m certain her family walked by her a dozen times without knowing she was there. I pulled Mu back, and Pandora’s person was able to ease her out and get her back to the apartment. We searched another three hours for Bear, all over the complex and the woods and meadow behind the apartments. Mu didn’t find Bear. He did a great job, but it wasn’t as happy an occasion as it would have been if we had found both cats.
