Have you tried calling the owner of the apartment? Something similar happened to my friend and 3 weeks later they discovered that the tenants abandoned their pet cat.

Wow! Hmm, they have been in the apartment since the tenants left. I’ve brought it up to them and they said they have no idea what it could be but they would listen for it from their unit when they are back in town. Problem is they live in another state so it may be a little while 😣

Hopefully it is not that ....I mean my friend did contact the previous tenants but they never mentioned the cat....then a neighbor saw the cat from a window and called the fire department!.

Poor little kitty, I can’t believe someone would abandon their pet!

It happens more often than people think… When a person is arrested or something else happens to them, it’s not necessarily the business of the police to check for pets, so they’re often left to starvation and/or dehydration, extreme depression, ultimately a long sad death.

Also, pet animals can make very different sounds depending on their ability to signal need of care.

Please check with SPCA and local animal welfare groups.

Look if there’s a possibility that a pet was left behind, is trapped there..please be a great human and investigate.
