The Stones are missing their cat, but also confess that they're not holding out much hope to find her.
Noel is a blackish tortoiseshell older female cat, last seen in their front yard at Calavaras/Midwick and Allen Avenue. Has a distinctive throaty meow and only four teeth left.
And, they say:
Also, we would love to hear comments from residents who may have lost pets to coyotes in the past. Has anyone actually witnessed a coyote snatch a small animal and run off with it? We are so curious because we have no physical evidence whatsoever; no fur, paw prints, or any signs of a struggle. Neither did we hear anything. It was between 6:00 and 7:00 A.M. on Friday morning, September 6 that Noel disappeared from our front yard.
Any comments or info on the act of pet snatching by coyotes would be greatly appreciated.
