(SOMEONE didn't think my idea of keeping the cats in overnight the night before to stop this from happening was a good idea so one cat fucked off at the earliest opportunity)
cats can be so smart/funny about stuff like this. growing up with burmilla/burmese cats we couldnt get suitcases out (to pack for going on holidays) without making sure the catflap was locked as the cats would immediately disappear because they knew they would shortly be heading to the cattery for 1-2 weeks :--) cunts

It happens. Even with our meticulous planning around packing. On moving day, ms_com had to stay at the old flat to try and wrangle a missing cat (SOMEONE didn't think my idea of keeping the cats in overnight the night before to stop this from happening was a good idea so one cat fucked off at the earliest opportunity). So she was not at the new place to direct the movers as to where to put what box. Turns out labelling boxes means fuck all if they're stacked 5 high and 5 deep in two different rooms on two different floors.
Label all sides of boxes when packing in future is the only lesson I learned. And trap any pets at the earliest opportunity.
