I live on the fourth floor, and one of my two indoor cats has either made it out of the windows, or off of the balcony in spite of my precautions.
I realised it was missing less than an hour ago. I took a token stroll around the neighbourhood, but a cat has a million places to hide.
He's a year old, and neutered. How do cats typically behave in these situations? He has no way of getting up to the apartment, but can I expect him to show up meowing below the balcony when he gets hungry/bored?
I've put up a Facebook ad for the little guy, but other than that there seems to be very little I can do, and I'm far, far from happy right now.
Any advice?
EDIT: I found him! Crisis averted. I went downstairs to tape a photo and a note to neighbours to the stairwell door, and took one last stroll outside. I caught a glimpse of movement on a neighbour's sundeck, and found him there, cowering under a chair. He was tense, but didn't resist being brought back up.
Now, if only I knew exactly how he pulled this stunt off, I'd feel a lot better.
