Kitten Puzzle

No sign of Mystery Kitten after the clean up yesterday. Was not hiding behind any sofa I had a panic after patching a hole in one of the walls of the Studio. It was a sticky metal patch and after I applied I thought "what if the kiiten had found it's way in there?" but really the hole is as large as the kitten's head, and I can't see a cat jumping into such a tight space when other possibilities remain. There was a period when Xena and Gabby were in the kitchen staring in the same direction, and Theo was so keen on the back of the DVD cabinet that I pulled everything in front of it away so he could get a better sniff. But I had a look around the back myself and there was no kitten or mouse there. It may be that I titbit I threw at Bobby bounced off into a hidden spot.
I also cleaned up under the kitchen cabinets. Discovered lost kitchenware, lots of wood shavings and two mouse holes in the wall to the bathroom. But no kitten or mice. I also discovered small clumps of dried cat poo (small enough to be made by a kitten). I have a poor sense of smell and may not have spotted these earlier because they were concealed. Evevidence that the kitten's been in my house for at least a week.
So this morning I'm worried about the kitten. Just because I can't find it doesn't mean it's not here, but I guess I have grown to like the idea of a kitten here. It could be dead (of starvation?), in hiding, or run off. And it looks like I won't know until or unless it shows up again.
