Called my cat Trooper to my room, when he jumped on the bed I was under my blankets with just my phone out so I started recording him meowing. He spots me at the end though.
This is my cat Trooper, we got him in 2010. I shot this video back in 2014, and had posted it in 2016 when my phone needed space.
I thought I’d edit this into a comment and the description in case anyone was curious on how we got him.
We don’t really know for sure which breed he is, as him and his litter-mates were found in the middle of a road near our old house 10 years ago. Nearby a puppy/cat mill was shutdown later on, so we believe they were abandoned. They were very friendly when discovered despite having no mother and being very skinny and covered in fleas.
The runt of the group had a enlarged dead eyeball that couldn’t be shut when it closed its eyes. After about a month or two we were able to adopt out the siblings but the runt was very small and that eye was not very appealing to some.
After a vet visit they said that he had a bad infection in his eye that would cause it to eventually burst and kill him. So our family put in some money for a surgery and he came out just fine minus one eye.
I got to name him Trooper and he grew into a big fluffy cat from a kitten that could fit in your hand.
From what we’ve searched on the internet he may be a Turkish Van/Angora, which can a expensive breed to purchase, I think that he and his 3 siblings may have been a failed batch that were thrown out, as they all had patches of white fur in their colour schemes. As the Turkish cat breeds when all white, can sell for very high.
Just this last November (2019), A guest had come over late at night and forgot to lock the front door and shut it fully, that night it was very windy and the front door managed to blow open a bit. Trooper’s litter box is downstairs so when he went to the bathroom he must have seen the door open, so he got curious and ventured outside and we haven’t found him.
If you see new uploads of Trooper, they will be old videos saved on my phone of him.
This October (2020) we got a black kitten, after the house seemed empty without a cat chatting. May post videos of him in the future, after I add some of the remaining videos I have of Trooper.
Update (Dec 2020) Wow! This video has gotten lots of attention.
I unfortunately don’t have any good news to share for Trooper coming home, other people in our area also couldn’t find their lost kitties during these time, We had many posters for him, walked along while calling out for him during the first weeks. Called shelters and Animal control had no luck. Left his litter box outside with food, posted his disappearance in a neighborhood app, offered a reward. Nothing.
And yes Trooper is microchipped and fixed. He would be 10 years old right now. He is 4 years old in the video.
Also we all see the Duck dynasty poster in the background (It’s not framed haha), I do get a chuckle from all the comments on it, it’s either loved or hated. This video was recorded in 2014, at my mothers place in Canada. I don’t live there anymore.
Thank you for all the kind words about Trooper and the condolences, I’m sorry I haven’t been responding to them all.
Some have asked where he went missing to try and help, I thank you for the offers. It was Texas .
I’ve created an Instagram to post his old photos, everyday till I’ve run out or until I’ve got him back. It’s called troopers_memory for anyone curious.
