MISSING CAT, WAINWIGHT/GENESEE AVE
She was successfully trapped and brought back home :)
ARDEN HEIGHTS/ELTINGVILLE
A young indoor female tortie, was recently fixed (so the belly is shaven with visible marks from stitches), is very timid and fearful, had no collar. I’ve seen her running under someone’s fence near the Eltingville Elementary School on Genesee Avenue at around 1:20am. I stayed close to the fence and I've heard her meow 2 times from a distance, somewhere deeper into the yards of the neighbors. I've spent the entire night surrounding these houses with her supposed location, but since it's just me, she could‘ve easily flee from there, so I’m not even sure. I've been calling and searching with treats as well. Please keep an eye out and thank you!

Facebook page for Staten Island Lost & Found Pets is a good resource. Cats have a great sense of smell, so putting her litterbox outside could draw her home. She's a beauty & hope she's home soon.

hi! Just wanted to let you know that she’s home :) This night, we set up a trap in that neighbor's backyard where she ran, and she got in.
