Please help!

posted by Kris Ardent @ 7:10 PM

If anyone can help look for The Cheat this weekend, please let us know. We have a pet detective, but she won't bring her cat-sniffing dog around until we have put up signs, checked shelters, and talked to the neighbors about letting the pet detective check out their yards.

He could be hurt and hiding somewhere, and I would really hate to wait until Tuesday (when Vanessa gets back into town) before the hound could start looking. But we're on the other side of world, so we're really pretty helpless in this situation.

I think the most important thing is for someone to talk to Vanessa's neighbors 2 or 3 doors on either side, ask them if they've seen The Cheat, and if they'd be willing to let a pet detective and dog sniff around for him in their back yards. Vanessa's apartment is at 144 Highland Avenue, 94110 (south of the mission), between Mission and Holly Park (I think he's in the park: that's where I'd be).

Here's our Craigslist ad for more information:

And pictures, because The Cheat is handsome:

Hey homies.

I am very sad about The Cheat. I am trying to manifest the supernatural yogic powers we were promised last week by Bikram in order to contact The Cheat and guide him home. However, I'm reasonably certain I have to be able to sit indian style before those abilities become fully manifest. I'm probably telling the Cheat to go to Hoboken at the moment. Foolish, foolish pseudo-yogi.

Perhaps The Cheat, knowing how Joe wishes to share the Cheat's adventures, has gone to find his cat-guru in order to learn how to mind-meld with Joe. The cat-guru presumably lives in a cave in the Himalayas, so the Cheat is currently stowed away on a passenger vessel of some kind to Nepal. It will be an arduous journey, probably taking several cat lives in the process, but will undoubtably result in a triumphant reunion and the realization of a feline superbeing.

Ideally, the Cheat's return will somehow involve Ray and Airwolf.

People, don't forget to check NEPAL, in addition to any place a cat might be between here and NEPAL. Unless you think it's wrong to interfere with the creation of a feline superbeing.

Thanks for looking for him Nikhila! And you're right: The Cheat is downright sexy. I wonder if he's had to turn to prostitution yet, for survival. It might be hard to pull him away from his new life.

A brilliant idea! We could have photos of The Cheat broadcast on the traffic alert signs on the 101 through SF! I'll write to City Hall and see if I can get the ball rolling. Thanks Kim! :D

You guys really are having an adventure out there! Burittos, nose art, Chocolate Breasts, folding videos, re-making dirty dancing, tobacco pipes, car thefts, missing cat..

Nekeela 's right, us Americans can hardly keep up! I am so sorry to hear about the Cheat disappearance. I had a dream that the Cheat knew sign language and he was trying to tell us where he is hiding out. It was difficult though, because sign language is very quiet.

May be the Cheat and the Sneak had a riff and the Cheat went to go cool off. My money's on the park. Eventhough I have visions of him hanging out with other vagabonds by the dock and it seems damn cute thinking of the Cheat like the kitty in Homeward Bound on his way to find the Ardents, I am gonna have to say I don't think he has gone too far. May be Neekeela can go to the park and lay down on the grass with your sheepskin rug. I think it could be very tempting and could lure the Cheat out from hiding. Hey who has your couches? May be we could borrow them and recreate the Ardents living room in the middle of the park. Come on people! The Cheat needs some familar landmarks to find his way home!

Whew. Good thing we didn't end up having to buy those couches back from Dan. Although maybe he would have loaned them to us, just for Operation "Make The Cheat Think Holly Park is the Ft. Awesome Living Room."
