Chris was reported missing over the weekend of Feb. 2. Royal Canadian Mounted Police told E! News he hadn’t been seen since Jan. 30 in his hometown of Lacombe, Alberta. He was later found dead on his own property, and while no details have been released about his cause of death, police have said it’s not being considered suspicious.
Earlier Sunday, Cattrall had posted a photo of Chris on Instagram asking for help in finding him.

“His keys, cell phone, & wallet left on the table and his front door unlocked. This is not like Chris. He would never leave his unlocked home without those items nor his 7 beloved dogs,” she wrote. “He’s a one of a kind brother. Help us bring him home safe. Please spread the world. Many thanks for reading this.”
