When I was younger our cats would routinely disapear for weeks at a time, but always came back. Now, I always keep mine indoors. There are too many things that could happen to them out there in the big wide world. Coyotes being one of them.
Outside cats, particularly ones that have not been spayed or neutered, like to patrol their territory. Its normal for them to wander off for a few days, then check back in with you.
Be very, very careful, however. Coyote's are an extreemely dangerous animal to a cat, and are very smart. When she comes back keep her indoors.

Well my cat has been gone for 4 days once. If there are coyotes around you probably shouldn't have trained her to be an out door cat but you did and now she probably loves it so no changing that. Cats ussually come home after a couple of days but I once read an article about a cat that disapeared for 3 months and then came home. That's unussual though. When you get another cat, (hopefully this won't be for a long time) keep them indoors if you don't like thier adventures.

It's always scary when cat's do that, this is why I always recommend having your cat an inside cat only. There are a lot of things outside that can hard your cat. I had a cat once that was gone for a month. We thought he was dead for sure and then all of a sudden one day he comes back up to the house and he was all beat up like he got attacked by something. So cat's can be gone quite a while but again I recommend making her an inside cat. Good luck!

That's a LOT of subject to hide! If it had been me I could throw out SeaWorld, no longer considering the fact that it is not a fine park, however considering the fact that I've been there so usually besides and I have extra a laugh at Disney World. Since you're already considering the fact that it then I doubt it could trouble you too unhealthy to only omit approximately it altogether (except there's anything there that you simply particularly MUST do). To be totally sincere I could mainly simply spend the complete 5 days at Disney World, maybe throwing in a few leisure time. For what you are short of I feel 3 days at Disney World and 2 days at Universal Orlando could paintings, even though I could mainly do 4 days at Disney World and best sooner or later at Universal Orlando (deciding upon simply a type of 2 parks). There are 4 subject matter parks in Disney World and 2 at Universal. If you particularly desire to discuss with each Universal parks and reduce out one Disney World park, then I could go away out Animal Kingdom. If you make a decision to discuss with all 4 Disney World parks and simply discuss with one Universal park then I could opt for to discuss with Islands of Adventure.

I've seen cats turn back up again after being away for weeks or even months. But I wouldn't give any odds for your kitty's survival among coyotes. And I'm surprised she got back home the first time.
IF she comes home again, you may want to consider making her an indoors cat, or at least fencing the yard- preferably with some kind of topping on it that she can't climb out of.

I live in the western part of Maine, a few years back my female cat had kittens and We kept the male of the litter. He was spoiled and very much taken care of and cared for. One sunny day he whined to be let out and we obliged.I suppose he decided freedom was great and did not return. Day after day I called for him , drove around and looked for him....even if he was hit by a car, he was part of our family. One year later , I let my cats in for the night and low and behold, there was a familiar face among the group... My missing cat! At first he was loving and acted like he had never missed a day. Next thing I know he is growling and getting mean. I had to let him back out into the world , but felt relief that nothing bad became of him! Now he is eight years old and from time to time he pays us a visit, never anymore to come in and allow us to make of him. I did ask our Vet about this and he said, " sometimes the natural wild in them just makes them that way". I wish you luck and hope that this story helps!

First off, I hope your cat is spayed and properly vaccinated. Secondly, if your cat is mostly an indoor cat, I suggest you keep her indoors. Thirdly, she is exposed to an enormous amount of danger. Not only can she pick up a disease but she can also be killed by another animal or a vehicle. Pertaining to your question, pets have been known to show up years later after their families have moved away. So really, your cat's adventure can last as long as she wants it to assuming she remains safe.
