The couple and their son were enjoying their break when they found out.
The 52-year-old said black puss Bertie somehow was able to sneak out.
He hasn’t been seen since.
Sharon told What’s The Jam: “I just want my boy back.
“I think he managed to get out through two doors which were left open.”
Bertie vanished from Woodlands Pet Care on Sunbridge Road, Durton Green, near Sevenoaks, Kent.
He went missing while the family were 170 miles away in Lyme Regis, Dorset.
The family have now launched an appeal to get him back.
“We’ve been searching for him, putting up posters and appealing on social media ever since,” she added.
“But there is no sign of Bertie.
Sharon, who lives five miles away in the village of Ive Hill, added: “I’m angry and disappointed.
“We got Bertie five years ago when he was a kitten, but we don’t know if we will ever see him again.
“It’s heartbreaking.”
She added: “We have walked miles searching for him.
“He is very much loved, he’s chipped and neutered.”
Berte has a white patch on his tummy and a V-shaped nick at the top of his right ear.
The Woodlands Pet Care said on social media: “Please keep an eye out for Bertie.”
Local Michelle Smith said, “Hope you find him.”
Belinda Murray added: “Have you tried leaving unwashed laundry outside?
“That can help them get home, apparently.”
The cattery has been approached for further comment.
