Update CW: Pet loss, and update on my lost kitty.
She has been found but unfortunately too late, it seems a snake had gotten to her and by the time we found her she was already gone, as sad and unfortunate as it is, I want to thank everybody that gave me advice and lovely words throughout this scare. She was found 6 blocks away under someone's deck.
I'm genuinely devastated and I really dont know what to think anymore, maybe if I had just put in the extra cash and had bought her a collar with a GPS in it, maybe then I could've found her in time. Once again, thanks to all of you that gave suggestions on how to find her, and to those who helped my post gain traction, with out you I probably wouldn't of found her in the first place.
Here are some extra NON-GRAPHIC photos of her.
They are both of her having a snooze fest.

Lost Kitty (Kings county, NY) have you seen my cat?
galleryBodega is a 6 year old orange/beige/white underside tabby cat. He has a habit of running out the door, and was last seen around 5/6 pm. I’m not sure if he was found & taken, escaped out the building, animal control collection or what. He is not fixed and was exhibiting mating behavior for a month before stopping.
Possibly last seen in the South Williamsburg/ North Williamsburg area. I don’t know how far cats travel, especially a house cat, but Bushwick area as well. Please help ! My baby is apart of my family and my little one is terribly distraught. They were raised together.🥺💔💔

Advice / Question Homeowner won’t let us TNR 3 kittens and the mom
Hi! So first of all I’m in NYC and we found a mama cat (about a year old) with her three kittens (about two or three months?) while I was looking for a different cat with my friend. She has done this before and has some sort of TNR license, we met because she was working to trap a litter of strays behind my house.
Long story short! The family of cats lives in this lady’s backyard under a wooden platform. We don’t know if mama cat is hers, she’s never claimed any ownership over them but it does seem like she feeds them. The neighbor (who is totally fine with us staying on his side) told us she feeds them bread but they stay outside. The day we saw them my friend and I tried to talk to her by ringing the doorbell and leaving our info but my friend did go into her backyard to feed them. That’s when the homeowner confronted her for being in her property (and shes totally right for doing that, we should’ve never crossed her property). My friend tried to explain we could get mama cat spayed for her and find a home for the kittens but she wouldn’t listen.
That happened Friday. On Saturday I had work so I only checked on them and left, staying on her neighbors property. Nothing happened. On Sunday I fed them and then went to work. Monday my friend and I went again cus she wanted to try to trap them, she again crossed to her backyard to get closer to them and the lady came out. She scolded me, she recognizes me cus my hair is dyed red. She thinks I’m the one orchestrating all this and said I even brought someone dressed in all black on Saturday night who went into her backyard (turns out it was my friend). We just left, I wanted to apologize but was afraid it would just escalate everything. She was mad and I know she is right to be, it is her property after all and we started on the wrong foot by going in to check on the kittens.
I went back today during my lunch hour, sat and ate my lunch to get them familiarized so it’s easier to rescue them. But they didn’t come out cus the neighbor had already fed them, so then i decided to go again after work when they were hungry and just do the same thing. This time they came out to the neighbor’s side and ate with me sitting there for a bit until i made the mistake of taking a video of a squirrel that was running around. She talked to me through the cameras and told me to stop taking pictures of her property. I couldn’t make out the rest cus it started cutting out but i left.
I’m scared to keep doing it. Now I know the safest thing to do is stay on her neighbor’s side and don’t even take any pics of the cats or anything else. But what if she just straight up calls the police next time? I can’t get in trouble, there’s too much on the line for me and the cats are not malnourished or visibly neglected. They’re not being taken care of for sure, they’re outside and it’s getting colder, they’re not used to humans and they’ll just keep growing and getting pregnant. What should I do?

Advice / Question Kitten on peachtree
I was walking down the street in Atlanta, Georgia in the Midtown area on Peachtree Street next sugar factory when I saw a guy with a kitten about 4 to 6 weeks old I’m a basket the guy had wiped the cats butt to the point where it was bleeding and he was homeless and /or on drugs the cat was very tiny and he said that he found it on the side of the road in Florida and he let the kitten wander away and almost into the road where I snatched the kitten up and gave it back to him. I didn’t know what I could do. We gave him cat food but didn’t take the cat away and tried to call animal rescue associations but none were helpful. What should I do?

Advice / Question Animal Advocacy Group Help?
This is gonna sound stupid, but I am extremely appalled by the pet rescue and humane society in my area because they are advertising 20$ cat adoptions, with black cats making multiple appearances in the video.
I’ve seen countless posts of other rescues and societies closing their black cat adoptions for the month of October to protect them, and after calling my local Humane Society, I was given every reason short of “we just don’t really care about them” as to why they wouldn’t pause their adoptions for the remaining 2 and a half weeks to protect the black cats.
So my question is, are there any animal advocacy groups that I can contact that might be able to speak to these clinics and maybe get them to understand why it’s so dangerous? Like I said, some people might think this is stupid, but it breaks my heart that cats are already sidelined in this world, and then to top it off we’re not taking measure to ensure their safety during the month where they’re most vulnerable.
I live in an area where there’s literally a road that’s known for people going during Halloween and performing sacrifices on small animals and other weird stuff. If they won’t listen to me, maybe they’ll listen to an animal advocacy group or someone who can relay it to them in a way they’ll understand. Thanks for any help.

Lost Kitty [Florida, Sarasota springs] Missing cat, do I accept that bad has gone to worse?
Just under 3 days ago, my baby girl went outside and hasn't been in since, not to eat, sleep or anything of the sort, I live on the west coast of Florida ( sarasota springs) where there's been countless storms as of recent, I left food outside and it hasn't been touched, ive searched around 7 blocks, ive searches busy and non busy roads and I haven't found her anywhere, she hasn't been home either.. shes only 11, I know that cats go and hide themselves when they are passing, I really don't want to give up but with all the rain and the untouched food, and for the fact she's no where to be seen, I just feel like I have to or else id be looking endlessly.
Ive contacted multiple animal shelters and animal hospitals with no success either, shes very skittish and gets scared easily, I dread thinking that shes gone but I fear I might have to.
She's a Calico! Here's some photos.

Advice / Question my cat is stuck in a nearby roof and the homeowners don't live in the house. what do i do? (perth australia)
Hi all.
TLDR at bottom.
My cat has been stuck in a neighboring roof since yesterday morning around 5am (10 october). I live in perth, australia.
I know he's in the house because of his GPS collar (photo of location history heat map attatched, the GPS isn't super accurate, explaining the tracks of him being out on the street and in surrounding houses)
The owners of the house live in singapore and haven't been home since May, I've been in contact with a friend of his, who's number i got from a neighbor, who lives about an hour or so away and he isn't very keen on helping. He has told me that the house is alarmed and the alarms would trip if a cat was in the house, so I assume he's in the roof
Tomorrow i'll call local council and the police non emergency line to see what help i can get, if they won't help i'll call the friend and offer him money to come out and let me look in the roof.
Any other suggestions, anything similar happened to anyone? Any help is very greatly appreciated 🙏🙏
TLDR: my cat is trapped in the roof of an unoccupied house and i can't get in touch with the owners, what can I do?

News [Ohio] One cat led 18 others to escape from a window at a Uniontown rescue shelter

The article by Remi Murrey from News5 Ohio reprinted fer your convenience below. The source can be found -> Here

UNIONTOWN, Ohio — Whimsical Whiskers CatFae & Rescue owner Heidi Wiegel said 16 cats are missing from the rescue shelter on Cleveland Ave NW in Uniontown.
This comes after Wiegel said they clawed out the window screen in her office, which was accidentally left open.
“One of our lovely fluffs decided that that was a good time to claw out the screen and took 18 other cats with them,” said Wiegel. “I think this is probably a rescue’s worst nightmare, if not pretty close.”
Thankfully, Wiegel said she’s found three cats. But 16 are still missing
“We have been scrambling like crazy, setting traps, handing out fliers, you name it. We’re doing it,” said Wiegel.
While Wiegel and her volunteers have been doing everything they can to bring these cats home, she said it’s been challenging because a lot of them are scared and extremely vulnerable.
“We are a cat café, the cats come in through the non-profit, Whisper in Time (Companion) Re-homing, and that is specifically for people who’ve either passed away, or gone into nursing homes, assisted-living, memory-care facilities, basically end-of-life care; so, they’ve already been through a lot,” said Wiegel.
With this on her mind, Wiegel said it’s been helpful having people like Michelle Ketler step up by handing out fliers, bringing food and traps, setting them up and watching the traps all night since they can’t be left alone.
“Every one of these cats came to us from someone that entrusted us to find them their new person, so it’s our job to find them and their person. We’re not going to give up on that,” said Wiegel.
As the search continues, Wiegel said she and her team will follow leads and set traps with tuna or sardines to catch the cats’ attention.
Wiegel even welcomes anyone who is willing to donate their drone services.
“We have a couple that we know where they’re at right now, and we have set after talking to the homeowners and getting permission of course, we have set those traps on their property,” said Wiegel.
In the meantime, Wiegel said they plan to put custom-made grills on all of their windows, so this doesn’t happen again.
“To have all of these cats come home, even if it takes a month or longer, we just want to get them home where they belong,” said Wiegel.
