Michelle was told today that a customer in her local sandwich shop is feeding two stray cats, we are hoping Louie could be one of them, the shop now has a poster and the local area is being postered too. Fingers crossed. Louie is now registered with the National Pet Register, My Moggy.com and Animal Search. xxx

We have a lead on a cat very like Louie, even have photo's which aren't very clear but seems to be very like Louie and worth a closer look, but the woman who is feeding it about 7 mins drive away from where he went missing, won't let Louie's owner have a look at it. Very strange, she has even blocked everyone from her facebook page so we can't get intouch with her anymore. Not sure where Louie's owner stands on this one? Any advice please?

Dont know where the posters are being taken down in this case but if it is on Council trees ,posts etc,I found it helps to actually ask people on roads you want the posters on to put one on either their gate or a post in front garden.Most people are quite helpful and will also put one in their car.

Thank you for the links skippy, I will certainly look into them. I have registered Louie on Animal Search and My Moggy. I have emailed our local Metro Newspaper to see if they will do a story too following on from Megan's story about her condition. I have contacted the local vets and rescues and left his details. We have a couple of people postering but the posters are getting taken down as soon as they are put up. xxx

Catchat website has a great action plan of things you canshould do. Many of these will be the same as for finding a lost dog, - but link is here if there is anything you haven't thought of yet - http://www.catchat.org/lost.html

They also have a list of local resuces all of who might be contacted if a cat is found - http://www.catchat.org/adoption/tynewear.html

I also assume you have contacted all your local vets - make sure they all get his details. Cats tend to travel a little less than dogs so lots of fliers through local doors can be really effective. Encourage neighbours to check garages and sheds to make sure he hasn't got himself shut in somewhere. Keep an eye on windowsills of any empty houses or houses where neighbours may be on holiday.

Good luck with your hunt - you are doing all the right things! He might just waltz in again at any time. They can be little monkeys when then want to be!

Michelle, Megan's mam is printing posters to put up in the local shops, library, community centre, pet shop etc incase someone has picked Louie up and is unaware he is a much loved family pet. I am sending her some laminated posters to use in her surrounding streets so they won't get damaged with the rain. xxx

Please help us find Louie, who is one and a half years old and went missing on 14th October 2012 from his home in Willington Quay.

He is a neutered, tabby tom with white feet, chin and belly, and his tail has 2 distinctive black bumble bee like rings on the end.

Louie is a very friendly, very cuddly with fluffy tail.

Unfortunately he isn't microchipped and wasn't wearing a collar or tag when he went missing as he normally stays in the house.

His young owner Megan, who is allergic to sunlight, daylight, and certain interior lighting is devastated that Louie hasn’t returned home. For Megan’s sake please help us find Louie, please contact us with information you might have not matter how small on 07427508622.

Sorry to see that LOUIE is missing.

• If your dog is microchipped please let the microchip company know that your dog is missing and check that all details are up to date.
• Owners targeted by a malicious hoaxer demanding money for the return of their dog should phone the police on 101 immediately and contact admin@doglost.co.uk
• A photograph of your dog is essential for the website. If you have not already uploaded one, please do so by clicking on Update details. Alternatively you can email it to admin@doglost.co.uk quoting the dog's DogLost ID number: (44129)
• Obtain a missing poster by clicking on View poster above. Posters are very important so start postering now!
• You will need to be logged in to upload photos, edit your dog's details, or add comments. You can add comments by clicking on Click here to add a comment.
• Contact dog wardens, vets and local rescue centres, and in Scotland, the Police. Give a detailed description with any distinguishing marks/scars or send them a copy of your DogLost poster. You can find vets in your area here.
• If your dog has been stolen inform the police immediately and obtain a crime reference number (CRN). Send an email to stolen@doglost.co.uk.
• If your dog is picked up and taken to rescue kennels, it can be legally re-homed after seven days. Visit rescue centres in person and do not rely on checking by phone alone. Other people may not recognise your dog by your description, so give them a DogLost poster.
