Tall, chonky gray/brown tabby

Message from Owner

Bolt escaped while I was moving out and has not been back to the (now empty) home since. He went into the backyards of the block bordered by Andover, Ogden, Moultrie, and Tompkins and may be hiding there still. He is very skittish so best to contact me rather than try to catch him, tho he might be tempted by a tube of cat treat

You must talk to neighbors /FLYER circling your block and add flyers outside of your block if you stopped putting out food - I was helping a lady whose tabby got out from the back door - she not only placed food and camera in her yard but also in 3 other neighbor's yards - either she would or they would nightly - and her cat found one of the food sources after 42 days and she was able to trap her from that location 4 houses away! Linda's cat Fin was missing in the backyards for 6 weeks - she was losing hope but kept talking to neighbors - kept flyering in case kitty left the block - 6 weeks later a neighbor spotted the cat in their backyard 10 doors away with their RING camera and the guardian ran there was able to lure kitty (alone) she let hte cat smell her hand then she slowly started petting his cheeck then head then he fully engaged and started purring and she pick him up held him close and hard against her puffy jacket and got him home

I pray you are continuing to put out wet food for your poor scared cat before sunset nightly (or are having one of your old neighbor do this for you - with camera aimed - he is there - if you stopped you MUST start again - he needs food and a way to lure him to a camera. This can be in a neighbor's yard since they likekly don't have access to your old yard - unless the new tenants allow it . Don't give up feeding him in front of a camera - this is critical. Lost cat George finally was spotted going to the food the guardian was putting out after 1 month of worry!!! She then trapped him from her neighbor's yard because a family had moved into her old home - it worked without issues - luring the cat to food then setting a trap the next night and watching the trap from inside the neighbor's home - 3 hours later George was trapped and finally home after 1 month!! Don't rely on online - your old neighbors on the block are KEY - replace flyers that are worn on lampposts circling your entire block and IN CASE he escaped the block also flyer 1 block out in all directions - knock on doors /FLYER 1 hour a day - this is doable no matter how busy and living 30 minutes away. Praying you don't give up on taking action in person....

Every apt in every building circling your block must be flyered, asking neighbors to check their backyard cameras for night activity and if anyone with a security camera in the backyard to call/text you...that way you can ask them OVER THE PHONE ONLY about helping to put out food for your cat in their yard (since they have a camera) don't put that on the flyer because you don't want anyone putting out food unless they have a camera and unless you know about it because whereever your cat shows up for food - THAT is the location where you would then plan to trap him...and just because someone SAYS they will put out food nightly it doens't mean they will...so I would bring them food and bowls AND ask if you can aim a mini blink at the food /water moat spot facing away from the house so it's not a privacy issue at all....mini blinks are on sale right now $15.99 on amazon: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0F3BC8661?ref_=cm_sw_r_cp_ud_dp_TQ6A9YM5UPAQ9GL7KM2P

He IS there - you must continue to lure him - Do you have a CAMERA AIMED at where you are putting WET FOOD nightly? You MUST continue to do this along with FRESH WATER - it's so hot for th enext several days. Another cat that escaped the backyards was JUST spotted on camera after 3 weeks !!! the guardian stopped putting out food after 2 weeks I told him to NOT skip any night and he started again and 5 nights later Larry came! He was able to trap him the next night!! You can do this - I know you moved over the bridge but you CAN do this and this is crucial to his survival. Please don't give up on him. ONCE You see him on camera eating THEN I will loan you a trap and baby monitor so you can set the trap and do a stakeout...gotta get him coming to food so you cannot miss a night - perhaps you have a nice neighbor nextdoor that will help put out wet food on nights you cannot due to work etc. WATER MOAT is KEY to prevent ants from swarming. NO DRY FOOD - only wet so the raccoons don't devour the food. Happy To talk anytime 650-339-6619 damia xoxoxoxox

❤️ I've reunited over 100 LOST cats - please read my long comments and follow as best as possible. Do not rely on ONLINE. During the day flyer and talk to neighbors door to door - at night CALL for kitty CALMLY at the escape point and spend time there … shine flashlight under parked cars and/or bushes, under stairs, decks …AND LURE TO WET FOOD BOWL with (mini) blink camera aimed ...if no camera yet, start with wet food bowl tonight (prevent ant from invading the food by placing wet food bowl inside a larger bowl and fill the outer bowl with water) ❤️ You will find your sweet furry baby - be patient - stay determined - continue to take action in person - don't let anyone discourage you. Kitty is nearby hiding in survival mode ..When My own cat Sophie (who used to be allowed on our backyard patio) went missing, I called and searched and because of her AIRTAG I found her 2 backyards over (I hopped fences and asked for forgiveness of my neighbors who know me) and found her under a dense shrub she was not budging and acted like I was a predator she was so scared. I brought my carrier sat down for an hour and was able to get her inside my carrier and get her home….SHE WAS TERRIFIED HIDING FROM ME!! EVEn though she was used to the backyard, because she left the backyard she went into SURVIVAL MODE ,terrified and HID in silence. ❤️. Buy a motion activated camera ($29 mini blink camera on amazon works great and you can overnight it) to aim at the wet food bowl you will put by the escape point at sunset (and ongoing sunsets if you don't find kitty tonight). It took 4 nights for Beanie baby cat to go to the food at night THEN the guardian set my trap the next night and watched from inside and kitty was trapped night 5. It took 6 nights to spot lost cat Marmalade coming to the wet food at midnight caught on camera! And because she is skittish we had to humanely trap her. It took several tries as she was scared of the trap. We had to get her used to the trap being there.....so we placed the wet food inside the UN-SET trap to get her to go into the trap for 1 night and once she went in THEN we SET the trap and did a STAKEOUT where we watched closely out the window with the lights off until she came. The next night we used a baby monitor so we could see close up and also to scare off possoms that kept coming. (scare them without making noise just by opening the door and shushhing or squirt bottle) . Watch the training video from previous post before EVEN thinking to trap. It's SO helpful. *** place kitty's known WATER bowl outside too ❤️ Don’t rely on online forums 🙏 talk to your immediate neighbors, gain access to yards - FLYER. ask to go into your neighbor's yard ALONE and bring a flashlight to shine under stairs/ decks or inside sheds , in garages, under crawl space....don't give up. You can get kitty HOME ❤️

💖🐱LURE KITTY WITH WET stinky fish based CAT food placed in bowl near escape point (2 hours before sunset /ongoing) NO DRY food / it attracts raccoons - ONLY WET FOOD and NEVER leave food in the can - it will SLICE the TONGUE and mouths of hungry cats. Get a $29 mini blink camera (order on amazon overnight)aimed at that food bowl - it will send your phone movement notifications and video clips - this is KEY because scared cats HIDE from all humans - even from YOU! the human kitty loves. ——— 💖🐱2 hours before sunset (ONGOING)Place bowl of wet food inside a larger bowl then fill the outer bowl with water to prevent ants from invading the wet food (NO DRY FOOD - you want kitty to smell the food and not attract raccoons who love dry food) 💖🐱 💖🐱INDOOR ONLY cats and LIMITED OUTSIDE ACCESS cats never go far. They go into survival mode and hide in silence. Most of them will not respond when they are in survival mode. 3 AM is the best time to find a missing indoor only cat. This is the time they become most active and responsive. Sit and quietly call for your kitty in your calm normal voice. Try to stay low, standing is intimidating to cats. Be patient. Do your best to remain calm despite the alarming situation. Calling for them at the top of your lungs will scare your already frightened cat. Scared cats are the best hiders. 💥💥 DO NOT LEAVE THE LITTER BOX OUTSIDE💥💥 It will attract Predators that will scare your cat away 💖🐱Put Your Scent Outside —.Place your shoes / dirty laundry - Tshirt, socks, pillow case or blanket you’ve used - place near the escape point. If you have a garage (and that’s the side kitty got out) place the items just inside the garage door left cracked open 5” - just enough for kitty to get in. 💖🐱Most INDOOR ONLY cats will be within 150 feet of your home HIDING (or stuck) . INDOOR cats that get out are immediately terrified and find the 1st place to hide and HUNKER DOWN sometimes for days at a time. DO a methodical search of the area. Check the house thoroughly. Check nearby bushes, underneath cars, in the car engine area, wheel wells and around the bumpers, check under your building, crawl space, drain pipe area. It's VERY VERY important that you look for kitty as late at night as you can.. Use a flashlight as late at night as you can to look in trees, under cars and in bushes, under porches, in crawl spaces. Try to look for the glow of the cat’s eyes. Because indoor only cats hide so well they are NOT as likely to be killed by a predator. Don't give up, it can take days. weeks or even months to find a missing cat. 💥💥 HUNGER ALWAYS WINS 💥💥 place wet food just inside the escape door and get a camera aimed AT WET FOOD - to receive phone notifications of any movement. Wildlife and motion activated WIFI cameras are extremely helpful in spotting scared cats that come out to eat when no one is around. It can take many nights before hunger takes over enough to come out of hiding (if not stuck) Keep replenishing wet food each sunset…it took 2 weeks for lost cat Reesy Puff to get caught on camera eating the food at night ( we trapped her 2 nights later) It took lost cat Sophie 6 weeks to show up on camera - trapped the next night! Some cats remain at a neighbors to scared or unable to get back - wherever your cat gets sighted get a camera aimed at wet food there asap and rent a trap… Mini Blink camera : https://a.co/d/00x4Gs9H Blink wireless: https://a.co/d/6LnRHNM 💖🐱PRINT flyers and hand them out to all your neighbors. Knock on doors. ASK neighbors to check Ring cameras and allow you to check crawl spaces, basements, sheds.. 💖🐱If kitty is spotted on someone's RING camera or in someone's YARD but STILL HIDING when you call calmly over and over THEN I'd highly recommend setting a trap at the same time kitty was spotted on camera. The trap must be monitored every single second it is ‘set’ to trap. A lot of people are successful trapping their own cats. If you decide to trap, you must watch the trap closely, predators can a cat in a trap. In a recent case, while using a baby monitor to monitor the trap from inside the home, the guardian’s cat came to the front door at 5 AM and she was heard on the baby monitor. 💖🐱RENT/BORROW A HUMANE TRAP - Ask Nextdoor ‘cat owner’ group or other pet groups if someone can loan your a humane trap to lure kitty with stinky wet fish based food. You can rent from your local SPCA/animal shelter though it can take a few days to access so sometimes reaching out to cat groups on nextdoor and facebook will be faster. If you live in San Francisco I am happy to loan you one of my traps. Traps WORK well to lure scared cats out of hiding before Dawn or after sunset. 💖🐱I use a baby monitor → https://a.co/d/bcuK17m as part of the STAKEOUT to monitor the trap door opening non-stop livestream (or you can add your wifi camera to your iPad or mini-ipad and use the pad as your live stream monitor OR SIMPLY watch LIVE FEED from your wifi camera (mini blink works great!). When you set the trap, you place stinky fish based wet cat food as bait at the far back center of the trap BEHIND the ‘trip plate’. I would suggest getting the help with someone experienced. OR watch the training videos below. It’s crucial for you cat’s safety. You must monitor the trap at a close distance and/or watch the baby monitor live feed without distractions. 💖🐱NEVER leave an active trap unattended/unmonitored for even 10 seconds. You don’t want to trap another cat or worse, a raccoon. If you come across any stray cats coming to the food, please find out if kitty belongs to someone else by posting online ‘IS THIS YOUR CAT’ on facebook, nextdoor etc and take the cat to determine if micro-chipped. There are so many lost kitties and you would hope someone would do this for your kitty. *** WARNING: if you don't watch the trap and your cat gets trapped they will thrash around trying to get out and will call on predators that can a cat in a trap. Watch the trap every minute and be ready to cover the trap with a blanket once your cat is trapped - will calm kitty until you can get kitty inside the home. *** 💥💥BEFORE TRAPPING: MUST-WATCH HOW-TO VIDEO Trapper Tips and Tricks!
