I am out and about for street work 4 mornings each week and have been keeping an eye out--in Southwest Vienna. I'm sad for you. Will keep watch.

This makes me sad. I hope he is found soon. Our cat recently went missing for 5 days in a friend's neighborhood far away from us. Don't stop looking. Odds are he is close. Our kitty wasn't far from where he ran off. Prayers.

I am not an expert, but after ours went briefly missing I have a few tips to share. 🐈‍⬛✔️ Look in storm drains. Bend down and look, dont assume they can hear you calling for them. Even if you are next to it calling out, they may not hear. 🐈‍⬛✔️ Walk the surrounding areas during quite times of the day, especially in late at night and early mornings. Take treats to shake or cans of food to tap. Cats are most likely to be active and venturing out of hiding during those times. Cats are naturally more active during dusk and dawn, and may be less likely to be seen during the day. Additionally, many cats will attempt to return home within the first week, often in the middle of the night. 🐈‍⬛✔️ Don't put out their litter, but do put out a load of your laundry. Your baby knows your scent. Litter might attract territorial aggressive strays or ferals that might fight or chase away your baby. They won't care about your laundry though. 🐈‍⬛✔️ Tell your neighbors. Ask the delivery people, garbage & recycling people to keep an eye out. 🐈‍⬛✔️ Notify the microchip company and make sure they are still in their system 🐈‍⬛✔️ Use free online sources like Canva to make flyers to put up. 🐈‍⬛✔️ Contact the local shelters to alert them. They will check the pets that came in and will be on the look out for yours when new ones come in. They also have resources/suggestions, and can loan you traps. **if you use a trap, check it often as raccoons will injure trapped cats. Do not leave it alone over night. ⚠️ Set your alarm to wake up to check it 🐈‍⬛✔️ Contact the vets in the surrounding area. Someone might take your pet in to see if they have a chip. Leave your info with them just in case someone does. 🐈‍⬛✔️Reach out to local rescues to alert them. 🐈‍⬛✔️ Register them on websites like Petco Lost Love and PawBoost. One will create a flyer for you to print out and both can be used to share on social media. 🐈‍⬛✔️ Check out websites like 24PetConnection , nextdoor neighbors, and the shelters periodically to see if they have been listed as found. 🐈‍⬛✔️ Don't give up.

Cats enter sheds and garages and often get stuck in sheds and garages for days or longer when the people don’t return. Make and distribute fliers to all neighbors asking them on the flyer to please check their shed and garage. Offer a reward if possible. Cats can survive a long time on insects if locked in a shed/ garage. The cat will likely return to your home. Look for the cat after dusk. That’s when the cat will be coming out of hiding after sleeping all day. (Our cat climbed on the roof and fell down the chimney.) Please avoid putting a collar on a cat. If you insist on a collar make absolutely sure it’s a breakaway collar. Predators grasp the collar. Cats climb and jump. The collar snags on things and the cat gets injured or dies. -Sometimes even a breakaway collar fails to release.
