    I lost one ( Kitty ) at a shipper. He loved being outside. Got out and didn't notice. Took an Uber back almost 100 miles. Gone.

    Put a $1,000 reward.

    They go into frenzy. They'll ricochet all over the truck for awhile.

    This one is so used to the truck when we get home, I'm like,"We're home!!!"

    She looks at me like "and?"

    Depends on the cat. Some will walk right with you. Get in, get out.

    Lot's of predators though. You better be well aware of where you're letting them out.

    Cause I'm a pretty darn good shot, and to try and hit something wild once it would be going after or grabbed the cat, without hitting the cat, would be very difficult.

    I'd also gather a kitten might be better to start off with.

    That's just payback for all the times you ate the cats supper...
