Have you seen Lilo? This big-eyed 2-year-old escaped her apartment Monday, while her person was at work. Lilo was last seen near Washington Street at Chilcott Place near the JP/ Roxbury line. Her person, Kiera Blessing, said she's tried all the area shelters but has come up dry so far. Lilo is micro chipped.

Lilo knows her name, pronounced "lee-low," and she will also usually answer to "kitten" or "beeb."

Blessing describes Lilo as friendly and sweet, but she can hiss when she's scared. But the hiss is all talk: "She's never scratched or bitten a person," said Blessing.

Still, between the sound of traffic and her limited experience with being outside, she will likely be pretty freaked out, said Lilo's person in an email.

She likes people so she may be coaxable with treats and pets, but her owner asks that people please don't chase her.

If you see "beeb" email kierablessing19@gmail.com
