Right click the background outside the image window and set it back to your prefered colour.

BTW My cat loves to help me do some typing if it feels ignored.

The image could have been pushed offscreen. Try Ctrl 0 or View > Fit on Screen, and see if it returns. You might not be looking at the canvas, but the dark area that surrounds the canvas, sometimes referred to as the "pasteboard".

Hi

Try resetting your Photoshop preferences

In addition, you can also try looking in these panels for clues:

History
Paths (you are on the Pen tool)
Channels

Show screen shots of each if you don't know what you are seeing.
