Is there any point to "Lost Cat" signs?

Tears and prayers for Roscoe.

If the cat won't hang around to wait, then it probably doesn't like you. Those signs are for people that like cats and want to help them find their way home. Cats like these people back and hang around expecting good things.

Clearly you don't like cats, so why should they expect you to help them?

Roscoe was cool. Noble cat, man’s cat. Went hunting, got hunted. We have a feral cat we adopted last winter. Has the same tendancies. We try to keep Cecil in during dark hours “when bad things happen.”

We live on a golf course, lost one our cats to a coyote. Coyote cut him in two ate the gut. Posted signs and got a call from one of the grounds keepers. We had him chipped, took the remains to the vet. Yep it was Roscoe. We don’t let ours out in the hunting hours anymore.

There was a necropsy on Roscoe and you were asked to identify ?

Was this on the ' Forensic Files ' ?

If true , you must have boat loads of $$$$ and time on your hands .

Ok that is hilarious !!!!

That is too effin funny !!!!

And how much coyote , wolf and domesticated dog are you ?

Hahahahahaha !!!!!!!

The chip goes on the upper shoulder by the neck. As I said the coyote gutted Roscoe, left the head, limbs and back. We were pretty sure it was our cat and just wanted to confirm. There was no cost to scan for the chip.

A house cat could kill a squirrel??

When Europeans first settled Colorado, they negotiated with the Utes. As part of the settlement for taking the Ute land, the chief told them of his lost son--a boy named Falling Rock. In the treaty, there was a provision that the white men would place signs all over the state saying "Watch for Falling Rock," in the desperate hope that the boy would one day be found. About the time the Interstates were built, the Utes realized that their missing man was long gone-so they renegotiated with the white man, and changed the signs to a simple "Falling Rock" to memorialize their brother.

What came first...cats or hate?

It had to be the same day.

Best videos on YouTube are cats being trapped.

There might be. I had a cat that lived outside and sometimes wandered off for days at a time. Turned out one of the neighbors thought it was a stray and invited it in for a bowl of milk.

Lost pet posters are good indicators that the low men are nearby...

Um, why not?

I've always wondered about people who go out of their way to profess cat hatred. Animal hatred of any kind is a distinct mark of antisocial personality disorder.

I put up lost cat signs twice and both times got my cats back. Someone called and said my cat was on their porch and it was still chilling there when I got there to pick him up.

Praying won't try to suffocate you in the middle of the night.
