"Cat is looking for. Long, black and white hair. He has yellow eyes. And chip. Reward: 300 euros ." This says, in great lines, the announcement that Alexander, a 62-year-old man of Russian nationality and based in Sigüenza (Guadalajara), published this Monday in the print edition of EL MUNDO in order to find his pet , disappeared one month.

The announcement, which can be seen on the pages of Madrid, is news curious, striking and rare. Because who looks for their cat in a newspaper? And because? The answer to the first question is that its owner and relatives have been trying to find "posters and searches" for the area in which they disappeared since August 21, between the urbanization of La Lastra and El Campamento in Sigüenza, unsuccessfully. And the reason, for "older people to see it", because these people "do not usually use the Internet."

Who picks up the contact phone that appears in the advertising and speaks is Yuri , an employee of Alexander who assumes the roles of representative of the man, who only speaks Russian . She says she has managed the ad and made her phone number available to find the animal.

He says that the "dear cat , " as Alexander likes to call her and not by name (which he prefers not to publish), "came out one day and did not return." And did he often leave the house? We asked him. "I didn't usually do it, I just looked out the window, but one day it came out and it didn't come back," says Yuri. " She is very fond of her, like someone in the family . She bought it in the US, where he lived before, and they brought her here. They have been together for about 4 or 5 years," the woman adds to the story.

Its owner wants to make a final attempt to find it, although he "does not trust" to appear. So far, they have only received a call from a person "interested in money" but no real news from the cat. So, from these lines, refrain from treasure hunters. And good luck, Alexander.
