''The Lost Cat'' is a rather haunting, surreal podcast written and performed by A.P. Clarke. It tells of its narrator's experiences as he searches for his lost cat. Along the way, he encounters everything from [[EldritchAbomination Lovecraftian entities]] to parallel universes.

''Podcast/WelcomeToNightVale'' was a major influence. Similar to WTNV's "Weather" segment, each episode of ''The Lost Cat'' features one of A.P. Clarke's [[https://soundcloud.com/a-p-clarke original musical pieces]].

!!This series provides examples of:

* AfterTheEnd: Implied in several places. The narrator feels the need to arm himself when he leaves the house, the air quality varies, there are scary shadows at night, and there is a perpetual roaring from the other side of the lake.
* CatsAreMean: In the pilot episode, the narrator travels to a house that has been taken over by cats, trapping the owner inside. They nearly chew off the narrator's foot.
* TheDeterminator: The narrator faces a dangerous house, an EldritchAbomination, journeys into a parallel universe, and [[ItMakesSenseInContext braves a curiosity shop]] all in search of his cat.
* ExactlyWhatItSaysOnTheTin: The series is kicked off by the narrator's cat vanishing. His subsequent search for it is the common string that ties together the rest of the series.
* MajorInjuryUnderreaction: At various points, the narrator gets turned inside out and has his skull removed. Neither fazes him much. [[spoiler: In fact, he's calm enough to outwit the people who stole his skull]].
* NoNameGiven: The narrator.
* SpiderSwarm: In Episode 5, the entire town is literally ''covered'' with spiders that pour out of the toilets and drains. The residents only escape by clustering around the Leviathan's hole while the spiders converge around them so high and thick ''they blot out the sky''.
* TorturedMonster: The Leviathan is essentially paralyzed by its confusion and conflict over its place in the universe.
