Her beloved cat River has been missing from Torbay on Auckland's North Shore since November 28.
"It just cut me right up," Stout said after her micro-chipped pet vanished from Cliff Rd.
Stout is offering a $1000 reward for information leading to the safe return of the cat which she bred and raised for six years.
She describes the blue point Siamese as a character which is "more like a dog."
"I'd go to bed, he'd cuddle up to me and put his paw on my chest. He's just really, really special."
Stout has plastered posters and delivered pamphlets around Auckland in search of the cherished pet.
Torbay residents helped her scour the cliff with drones incase the cat had become stuck.
River's disappearance comes as a crushing blow after "a hell of a year," she said.
Stout's daughter, 50, has been battling cancer for the past three years and endured major surgery to remove cancer just before Christmas.
"It's like I live with a time bomb," Stout said. " You wonder each month,' is my daughter going to be here next year?'
"On top of it all, I ended up with breast cancer. I lost my brother as well."
Stout suspects River may have moved out of the area because he is partial to tradies' vans, she said.
"He liked to get in and rip up all the paper (bills) that they have inside.
"I just want him home."
Email roseken@xtra.co.nz if you have any information about River's whereabouts.

Our meeting has two topics.
First is a demonstration of how to make DNA using the ordinary kitchen equipment you can find in a church kitchen. While we are making the DNA - it is a fascinating demonstration - we will discuss some of the current ethical issues and concerns around genetic engineering.

He has just retired from lecturing on General Pathology in the Dept of Molecular Medicine and Pathology, Auckland. He also has an interest in theology with a BTh from the University of South Africa.
Second is a short presentation of the A1 and A2 poster prints by David Bell for the upcoming video on Herman Hesse's poem The Glass Bead Game.

A selection is being prepared for publication in the SMN journal Paradigm Explorer.

Auckland Council is forecast to take a 1 billion dollar revenue hit because of COVID-19.
This 10-year budget aims to find a balance between investing in our city and not overburdening our residents.
It will provide for our city’s future while keeping our rates increases low compared to other growth cities in New Zealand, will help Auckland’s economy recover, support our communities, build water and housing infrastructure and improve our transport network.
We need your feedback on these issues and how we pay for them.
