How long can a Cat live for without food and water? I need to know ASAP!... - GoFuckYourself.com

OnTopOfTheWorld · 12-05-2004, 08:33 AM

I truly hope someone can offer some advice or has knowledge about this...

I have a friend who left me the keys to her apartment to feed her cats, she is currently in another city hundreds of miles away and won't be able to return until Tuesday night.

For each day I was suppose to feed them two times. Unfortunately when I went to try and open the door, it turned out she gave me the wrong key.

The cats were last fed on Friday night(exactly at midnight.)
Do you think they will resort to drinking out of the toilet bowl if the situation calls for extreme measures? They have not had a history of ever drinking out of there before though...

I don't know what I should do, I hope my friend doesn't come back home to her cats dead

OnTopOfTheWorld · 12-05-2004, 08:33 AM

There are two cats, I hope they won't resort to cannibilism or anything??? this is really a bummer...........

escorpio · 12-05-2004, 08:35 AM

Break in or call a locksmith.

Mutt · 12-05-2004, 08:38 AM

i'm pretty sure that the cats will survive until Tuesday.

u can't reach her by phone or email?

if you really are worried find the superintendent of the building to let you in. if he doesn't trust you then ask him to go in and feed the cats.

The Apprentice · 12-05-2004, 08:40 AM

one week.

OnTopOfTheWorld · 12-05-2004, 08:41 AM

I hoped they would be able to survivethat long too, when I thought of them as just animals...
but then I imagined them as humans, and even though humans can live for quite some time without food, one can only live for 2 days or so without any water...

chupachups · 12-05-2004, 08:43 AM

DAMN! Just like seinfeld..... insert real small slices of something below the front door. Better still, break a window....

most cats are pretty smart and kind of wild, they will probly drink out of the toilet and survive of some lizards running around the house

Platinumpimp · 12-05-2004, 08:54 AM

Bullshit to ask how long they can last maximum without water. Food won't be a problem that fast, but water will be. Break open the door or have it done by a lock smith.

Nembrionic · 12-05-2004, 08:56 AM

3 weeks, but it's not an option. Get that door open. Ask the concierge or drop by the local fire station or something.

xclusive · 12-05-2004, 08:58 AM

call a locksmith and explain the situation and he might not even charge you...

If its a woman's house the lid of the toilet will be closed !!!!!!!

So stop worrying they are dead already

kiana · 12-05-2004, 09:06 AM

How much food and water did your friend leave them? I'll leave my cat for 2 nights maximum with about 3 bowls of dry food and lots of bowls of water. I would leave her longer but she gets lonely and bored!

Its a bad thing you dont have letter boxes, you could have posted some food thru the letter box!

Rob · 12-05-2004, 09:08 AM

Slide a couple of Quesadillas under the door. They'll be fine!

P.S. If this story is true then please either A, call her and have her overnight you a copy of the real key or B, have her call her landlord to let you in. You said it was an apartment so it shouldn't be any trouble getting the super or property manager to let you in.

That's not very likely. All the water is gone now ofcourse...

StuartD · 12-05-2004, 09:12 AM

I don't understand why this person hasn't tried to call the landlord yet, or building manager.

Anyway, the cats would survive anyhow.. they'd be skinnier, but they'd be ok.

Get a hold of the super and explain the situtation to him. get a big bag of cat food and leave lots of it out for them as well as a big bowl of water and hopefully they'll be ok till then.

You'd think your friend would have gave you the right keys...too bad the cats have to suffer

Dont worry, cats are like snakes. If she feed them a lot before she left, they wont need to eat again for another 1 - 3 months.

Should be okay. They will hate your guts, but should be okay, I think. Aren't there any cracks somewhere that you can slowly insert food little by little?

Vitasoy · 12-05-2004, 10:26 AM

Get a locksmith to open the door.

BVF · 12-05-2004, 10:38 AM

call KRL. He'll whisk in like the wind on his private jet and he will get the keys to that apartment even if he has to buy the building to save those sweet innocent felines.

seer · 12-05-2004, 11:02 AM

im sure a broken window would be better than dead cats

SmokeyTheBear · 12-05-2004, 01:00 PM

cats can die in 2 days with no water.

gigi · 12-05-2004, 01:23 PM

Can you see them through a window? Hopefully the toilet seat is up....but, even so, cats hate water and generally won't risk falling in it....but if they are thirsty enough......

Definitely make plans to get into the house.....if she's gone until the coming friday...that's wayyyy too long.

Good luck!

mastermikex · 12-05-2004, 01:30 PM

weird, my dad was just telling me bout this story where this little kids kitten got stuck on some kinda power pole or something, and nobody could save it cuz the friggin power company wouldn't shut off the power and plus there was a big storm....apparently kittens can climb up things, but can't climb back down unless they got head first or something like that...anyway, the cat survived up there for like 3 days and 3 nights....but since there was a storm, it probably drank water off the ground....so yea...don't take a chance and go feed your friends cats!

LadyMischief · 12-05-2004, 01:32 PM

They will be hungry, but they will make it fine I'm sure.

My dog can survive at least 6 or 7 hours without food.

yeah thats what i think too. cats are independant and dont give a shit if we are even alive. dogs are different. the dog would die because he couldn't find something to eat in the apartment.

those cats will find anything and everything edible in that apartment till she gets back. they're gonna be hungry as i don't know what, but they'll live.

Doctor Dre · 12-05-2004, 02:01 PM

Cats can survive a while ... and they are the mamals on earth that support the most heat and broken bones ...

Really strong animals.

i doubt they'll be gone when she come back, just really happy to see her

KRL · 12-05-2004, 02:03 PM

Pour a bucket of water under the front door. That'll give them enough water to be fine.

Make sure you make some meows to attract their attention or scratch on the door.

I think you should contact your friend as soon as possible. The cats will survive but I don't think it's good for their helth.

I don't remember exactly, but on some site I read that some can was whout water and food for 17 days and it survived.
