Mike is a very friendly, affectionate and curious cat. He lives in an area of terraced housing and is very home loving and it is very out of character for him to go off. I think he could have been looking into someone's car or a removal van and been driven somewhere. Or he might be shut into a garage or shed.

He has a sister who looks nearly identical and they are very close. They always curl up to sleep together and they wash each other. She is subdued since he has gone and she keeps miaowing at me as though asking where he is.
