We have lost K.C., our KittyCat. Been gone two weeks now -- we think coyotes took him from us.
K.C. — Blades of April grass.

I was certain he had been taken by a coyote. I cried more over that cat than any animal I had lost. And he was a feral. Apparently he’d been trapped in some storage space or something probably not too far from where I was looking for him. He was skinny and dehydrated but he bounced back and lived another eight or 10 years, at least, he’s still with me, at least as of last night. I really feel for you, it’s terrible, and I dread every evening that Tiger won’t come to my back door. 
have had that happen a couple times. Chickens, too.
Regrets, George. 
I've had barn cats disappear for a month, and then show up for breakfast.
I'm afraid I have to give up on my little Rio though. One of my favorites, and she's been gone three months now. She's one that has been gone for weeks at a time previously, but would stroll in at some point. Her mom is still here. I brought both with me from Calif. Breaks my heart, but we've lost a few others to mystery too. I would so love to see Rio's bouncy little trot coming toward me, with her black tail crooked up over her back.
Its harder not knowing what became of them, not being able to say goodbye. But I would not give up on KC yet, by any means, George.
My former wife lost her cat, Honey, to coyotes under her bedroom window in a major metropolitan area.
He's such a beauty.
