This is Karl. First I have to apologize: I posted and signed in Anastasia's name the last couple of days. I was trying hard not to face the horrible truth:Anastasia is missing since Tuesday, August 21, early afternoon.
The staff is a mess.
We don't know what happened to her, but for her to not show herself in such a long time means she can't.
The maid and the butler hiked the desert for hours, calling for her. Nothing.
She has never done this, even if she stayed out overnight, she would show herself to let us know she's around.
Please pray for a miracle.
I might not be blogging for a while but I will keep you posted.
Lots of crying out here - we will not give up hope, but it looks very bad.
PLEASE send her your purrs.

Oh Karl, I'm so sorry to hear that Anatasia is missing! I will pray for her to come home soon!
But try not to worry too much if she doesn't come back right away. When my mom was growing up, one of their cats, an indoor-only cat named Princess, somehow managed to slip out the door and she went missing. They searched high and low for her (the house was very close to a wooded area), put up signs across the neighbourhood, and spent a lot of time out looking for her. She was gone for weeks and weeks. Finally, about 6 weeks later, she showed up on the doorstep. She was very thin and they immediately took her to the vet. Fortunately, other than weight loss and some dehydration, she was fine.
Her personality changed after that, though. Before, she had always been a very shy, "stand-offish" kind of cat, hiding from people and not very affectionate. After her experience, she became incredibly affectionate and loving.
I will pray for Anatasia's quick return. Sendings hugs and purrs your way.
Oh no Karl! Please come home Ana!! I don't know if you remember Luna's story. Her blog address is Gatubelas=^_^=. She escaped from the vet's office and was missing I think for around 6 weeks too. Her mombean thought she was lost for good and they found Luna! Don't give up hope. Maybe somebody took her in. Just keep posting signs and checking in with Animal Control and SPCA. We will definately be keeping you in our thoughts and purrayers.
If you're interested, Luna's ordeal started August/Agosto 18, 2006. She writes in Spanish 1st then in English so her English amigos can read too.
Oh no Karl. :'( This really is horrible! The truth is that I know how Anatasia is feeling, I took a few days trip myself last April and letting the other cats and our mommies in total horror, loss, fear and disbelief for days.
I've learned from it and we all will purrr very loud for her to be save and come back. We also send purrrrs to you, Karl, and the maid and the butler.
Oh no! We're purrin' as hard as we can for her to come home soon.

Your FL furiends,
Oh Karl! Our purrs are wif you an yur fambly, an poor Anastasia, whereefur she is. This made me fink of Luna, in Spain, too. She was found after a month outside because of her beans puttin lost kitty ads efurrywhere.
We'll be purrayin fur lovely Anastasia! Keep us posted!
Thank you everybody!
The truth is: Anastasia would run away from every human being as far and fast as she can (ex-feral). And she knows her way around here, she IS an outdoor cat, even if we are in at night. SO for her not showing can only mean one thing: something prevents her. She could be injured is all I can think off. I try hard not to think about the bobcat. I feel lost.
Karl
Thank you for your support, we keep purring for her too.
Hey, Karl, don't furget to ask yur naybors to check in their sheds an garages an maybe cars they don't use much. She mite be trapped sumwhere like that! Our naybor's kitty spent a nite in our garage once.
Karl, I wish this were a joke, but I know that it is not. I got out of my house last week, but luckily I was only gone for an hour. I will not stop thinking about Anastasia and praying for her until she is home safe and sound. I hope you are okay, Karl.

Oh purrs and purrs and purrs for a miracle!
Is it possible she explored another garage or something and is locked in? That happened to Momma's cat when she was growing up. The people didn't normally have their garage open and Jet went into explore and was gone for two days. We'll hope that it is something like that and she'll get home and be very hungry
Oh and Jet wasn't a friendly cat either--the people weren't around when she went IN!
I see more and more people suggested she got locked in a garage or something. We live in a very remote part of town, no garages, only a few neighbors and they all know about her, even if they never see her because she is so human avoidance. We would hope it would be something like that - but there is really no human made structure out here where she could have gotten into...
And she ALWAYS stayed fairly close to the house, closer than I do, I just have this bad feeling about it. But I won't give up hope, no I won't. And the staff is very supportive to me, only their faces are wet all the time...
Karl
We will keep our paws crossed for her safe return. Please remember Luna's story...it's a great inspiration.

Don't give up hope! Life is stranger than fiction and you never know what simple, but unbelievable, reason she could be missing - only to come home as if nothing is different! Fingers crossed she'll be back home soon and then you can all breathe a sign of relief! Purrs and prayers coming your way!
Dear Lord bring Anastasia home soon, bring her home safely and well.
Oh no. This is very terrible and upsetting news. I am going to purr and purr and purr for Anastasia to find her way home right away. Please, Anastasia! We are all missing you and want you to come home now.
Yes, we wanted to ask about that too before we offered the locked up suggestion.
But please don't give up hope. That's the most important thing. It is very hard if there seems to be nowhere where she can be and she hasn't come home, but there are always miracles.
Karl... we'z are very sad to hears this. We will keep our paws crossed and will be sending out a bunch of kitty purrayerz that Anatasia to come home soon.
purrs.. and comforting snuggles to youz and your family...Katnippia Crew
Oh Karl, we'll sends lots and lots of purrs and prayers for Anastasia. Mom's old cat Rikki (now livin with Uncle Milty cuz she adopted him later) disappeared for 8 weeks and was found safe. So try not to lose hope!!! And Luna, our blogging cat friend was missing just as long and she gotted found! Try to be nice ot the staff. Wet faces mean they feel sad. So we'll send extra purrs for them.

oh Karl, we are so very sorry to hear this. We are starting the purrs and purrayers right now for Anastasia. Miracles do happen - Luna in Spain was found a couple of months after she ran away from the v-e-t. Please keep us posted when you can. Our mommy's eyes is leaking lots right now.
Anastasia - come home honey!!!
Oh, Karl, I am SO upset to heer this. I will be purring vary vary vary hard that Anastasia comes home rite away.
Oh, no. Anatasia, please come home.
You and your staff have probably already covered this ideas, but just for completeness...
Is there any way Anatasia could have gotten trapped under the house? Are there any rocks, caves, gullies, or the like where she could have gotten trapped? Is there food and water out to keep her going outside?
We suppose the 'good news' is that you haven't found Anastasia body yet, so there is still hope.
Not my Ana, oh I feel faint..Monte
Missy here, Monte has fainted dead away, we will put our heads together and purray real hard that Anastasia returns home quickly and safely.
oh my word! how horrible. i will send purrayers karl, tell the staff honey.
hugs, auntie bee
Oh this is so horrible!!! She has to come home. We will purr and purr and purr very hard. Cats do come home after being gone for a while, they know where home is.

oh dear friends. we're very sorry to hear this.
maybe your beans can leave dirty laundry outside so she can smell it (also vacuum cleaner bag insides cause it smells like your house). i'm sure they looked under bushes and stuff.
my mommy volunteers at a local shelter and they tell people to check shelters in a 20 mile radius because people often take found animals to the shelter closest to where they live, not where the animal was found.
We'll be purring and praying very hard for Anastasia's quick and safe return. Big hugs to you all.
Hendrix & Amy
OH NO! We're gonna do some non-stop purring for her quick, safe return. We've heard lots of stories about kitties coming home after days, weeks, or even months. Come home sweet Anastasia!
Anastasia, please come home!! I am purring very loud for you. We all love you. Come home! Purr. Purr. Purr. Purr. Purr.

Karl,
Mommy so upset over this news her eyes are full of tears as she writes this.Mommy is going to pray and my paws are crossed...Hugs and Purrs Ariel
We heard the news and came over to let you know we are praying for a safe return. Luna was gone for a long time but eventually was spotted and recognized from her lost cat posters. One time Mom's cat when she was a girl got shut in a garage down the street for the weekend.
Many purrs and hopeful prayers for Anastasia's quick and safe return!
Oh no!
This is terrible! We will be sending our thoughts and purrayers your way to help Anastasia come home safely.
Oh I am really, really sad about this...I hope Anastasia comes back soon. I will be thinking about her and all of you.
Your buddy, Jimmy Joe
oh, dear! poor anastasia!! what furry bad news!! we have been offline for a few days--so we'll purrray extra hard to get up to speed. our mom's purrrayin' super extra hard, too, 'cause anastasia's her granma's name, an' she's proud your anastasia has it.
Oh no, oh no! We will be purraying furry hard fer her safe return!
Everyone has given such good advice, we won't try to add more, except to say check with your vet for tips and call all the shelters. Put posters up and leave food out and things that have a strong smell of yourselves or Karl. Our thoughts are with you.
We just discovered this... stopping by to visit today. We are shocked.
We are sending strong purrs.
Anastasia! GO HOME NOW!!!
Love, Caesar and Princess
Oh, Karl, that is very distressing news about Anastasia! We only hope that she was like me. When I was much younger, I ran away from home on two separate occasions a year apart. I stayed away for about two weeks each time and I worried my mom to death. She put up searched the neighborhood, posted signs, and called both the county and city shelters. I returned unharmed both times. I never told anyone where I went. Sometimes a girl just likes some secret adventures. I HOPE that is the case with Ana!
We're purring for her.
~Bathsheba for J&B
Karl,
I'm sending my AireZen your way and plenty of purrs from my catbro Merv. I hope Anastasia has found a tasty stash of something that has totally occupied her time and that she will be home to you soon.
Goober love,
Stanley & Merv
Oh, no! We are definitely purraying and purraying for her safe return. We can definitely attest to the fact that the purrs and purrayers of the cat blogosphere work wonders. Hang in there.
Hugs and purrs.

Oh no, my buddy Karl! I am so sorry to hear this news! I am going to purrrr and purrrrr and purrrrrr and purrrrrrrr with alla my strength for precious Ana to come home -- we all love her so much! Tell yur humans not to let go of hope. Sometimes kitties wander off for a while, then they find their way home -- and alla us Ballicai are sendin' out HUGE "Go Home" vibes" go home, sweet Ana, Go home, sweet Ana!
We love you, Karl buddy, and we'll keep purrin' and purrayin' -- alla us Ballicai and our beans.

Dear Karl and your loving humans, please know that I am praying with all my heart and kittysoul that sweet Ana comes home soon. I was so distressed to hear this news -- but like other kitties have said, sometimes cats wander off for a while then find their way home, and I am shouting with all my heart and kittysoul, "Ana, go home! Ana, go home!" She is loved so much, by you, by your humans, and by the entire cat blogosphere and beans.
Sending love and strength and purrs and snuggles to you and yours -- purrrrr, purrrrr, purrrrrr!

Worried PURRS!!!!!
~napoleon,hunter&belle~
Our momma says she has had a kitty that disappeared too. It was very hard on her, she loved Rajjah very very much...Momma says its your job Karl to be sensitive to the staff and give them lots of gentle attention till Annastasia comes home. Till then, lots of prayers and purrs from our family to yours...
~napoleon,hunter&belle~
oh!
We are crying here with you.
But like others have said, DO NOT GIVE UP!
And when she does come back, get her to a VET ASAP to have her liver watched!
If she is trapped somewhere and can't get home to you, she is not eating. It's so important that you get her medical help to be sure her liver is OK after fasting, OK? (Mosaic Lady has her own story of a friend's cat who disappeared for many days, came back, and then died of liver failure from fasting!)
We will pray for you all during the night tonight.
Oh Karl, we's so sorry to hear this terrible news. Be strong and don't give up hope. We're sending purrrrrrs to you and the maid and butler.
ANA PLEASE COME HOME, YOUR FAMILY NEED YOU.
We at Krasota Castle are purraying and purring for Anastasia to come home safely. Purrs to Karl, and the butler and maid.
It's dreadful that your Anatasia is missing. I'll send up my purr prayers for her. Keep us posted, Karl.
Love to you all....G
Oh No! I will pray for Anastasia's safe return. Sigh.....
We are hopping she returns soon .
Karl, I am so sorry - all our eyes are leaky! We will pray and purr and pray and purr!
Please come home Anastasia!
I know that this sounds very kooky, but I've heard of animal communicators who helps people find their lost pets here is one that I found http://www.calmpet.com/lost_story3.html. I think this is the lady that helped a friend of a friend.
Karl, we're praying so hard that Ana make it home to you all soon. We also are praying for you and your family.
Karl and Staff,
We just came back to check for news and saw Tyler's suggestion. We totally agree.
We went to Lydia Hiby's site (she was one of 3 pet communicators that Mosaic Lady consulted after Walter died), and Lydia links to the same woman that Tyler recommended for lost pets, and there is even a phone number:
http://www.lydiahiby.com/links.shtml
We think it is totally worth a try. What do you have to lose?
Or you might just start googling pet communicators in your area and use your intuition to find the ones you are meant to use right now to help Anastasia and the Staff. That is what ML did in May. It's very, Very Hard. We know that. We are with you. We really, really feel your pain. Let us know if we can do anything at all, even if just listen. You are very blessed to have each other, you three. Hang on to that.
Mosaic Lady and her Cats
Bless your hearts - I just found out about this. I am sending all of you, including Anastasia, my love, and enveloping her in a white light so she might come home safely.
Oh noooo!!! We are so sorry to hear this awful news. The maid and the butler must be absolutely beside themselves with worry. Do not give up. Anastasia will return. Our friend Calvin was gone for several weeks and his daddy was so very sad but he was eventually found and is very happy at home again. We are sending all our love and prayers and purrs to you and the staff and to Anastasia that she comes home soon and safely.
Purrs,
Mr. Chen & Ollie
Karl and family,
You are in our thoughts and prayers! We're praying that Anastasia finds her way back home quickly.

Hi I'm Perfect Tosca and I live with four cats and Mojo is my best friend. I am sorry Anastasia is missing! If I could I would go out there and find her for you and bring her back real gentle like. I help raise kittens and things! I wish I could get a coupla Dog With Blogs hounds and just go find that girl. But you know, Cats are really smart even though us dogs don't like to admit it. So Anastasia could just show up any time now. I am going to pray to Dog for her to come home.
Love, Perfect Tosca
Oh no, this can't be happening! I'm purrin and purrin and thinking the most positive thoughts I can....
Love

Oh that's very sad. I hope you will keep us informed ! I haven't been here lately so I didn't know. But I had this twice, once with Arthur who disappeared for 4 days and my old Max for a whole week ! and then they showed up in good health but with strange behaviour. I hope she will also come back. Don't loose hope !!
Oh Gosh! we're thinking of you here in Wimbledon - hoping and hoping. lots of love FAZ and humans.
Come home soon, Anatasia, there's still lots more fun we have to have.

Oah dear, Please come home safe~!!!
Dear Karl,
I read your post on my blog. I'm so sorry that you all are suffering. I wish I could take away your pain.
I'm so sorry that you were given false hopes by the pet communicator. I'm also very sorry that funds are tight. We're experiencing the same situation for the next month. Otherwise we would be happy to pay the fee for Hilary Renaissance.
We'll continue to pray. Ana, please, please come home.
I just got back from vacation today and found out about this from Caesar and Princess. I really, really hope and pray that Anastasia comes home safe and sound and quickly. Don't give up hope. The strangest things can and do happen all the time.
Karl, we just heard the sad news about Anatasia missing! We are praying so hard for her return and our momma is going to light a candle every night to help her find her way back home to you. Hugs and purrs to you and the staff!
