Why does it need a microchip when you could sing it back?
96,975,360 in a Leap Year.
There’s one crazy cat lady out there with enough money and space for all of these.
Very likely not subtracting those that come back.
Theyre not lost. They’re just 3 doors down having 2nd breakfast.
tbf there’s a million weekly offenders coming and going as they please, so that accounts for over half.
This obviously includes those idiots who are putting up missing posters when they haven’t seen Felix for 14 minutes. It’s a cat, it’s round the corner being a dick.
Tiddles getting shut in the wardrobe, perhaps
Some go missing for a few hours maybe?
Is like your looking around for five minutes and then it turns out to be under the bed or something?
A quick Google suggests 100,000/year or approx. 274 a day. Sounds like they can’t do maths. What does the citation say?
I expect the ones that do go missing either get run over or just piss off to somewhere they like the look of better.
It’s the same 184 cats.
There’s a little number 1 after that statistic, suggesting that they have given a source for that data. What does it say?
Also, cool name for the cat
It’s from the perspective of babies that haven’t yet got object permanence
Moloko is a great name, hope he doesn’t commit too much ultraviolence.
Do what they want, mate.
Where are all these tens of millions of missing cats hiding out?
I have all the cats. They asked me to tell you this is cool they like it here and not to contact them again goodbye.
My cats are house cats and some days they go missing in the house. Usually they’ve just fallen asleep in a corner somewhere and not bothered me for a few hours so I have to go find them and check on them lol
“average minute sees 184 cats lost in UK” factoid actualy just statistical error. average cat goes missing 0.3 times per year. Directionless Georg, who lives in non-euclidean space & gets lost over 10,000 times each day, is an outlier adn should not have been counted
Gangs use them as bait for dog fighting
Tbf my cat is pure black and she does go missing several times a day when she hides in the darkest corners of my house so maybe us black cat owners are skewing the numbers

“Have you seen the cat?”
“Yeah, he’s upstairs on the bed.”
“Oh, right.”
