Description

Sweet 12- y/o girl, all grey with lovely variation in grey shading. Quiet - has a very soft meow. Loves to cuddle & snuggle. Likes wet cat foot & cat treats. She helped get me through Covid. Unfortunately, she tears any collar off. But she is chipped. Please text or call if you find her. She is greatly missed by me and my 2 other cats. REWARD offered!

Message from Owner

Staying with family who didn’t notice she’d slipped out. Please help me find her. She’s a lover, not a fighter, so I worry for her safety. Thank you all!

Post a sign in your yard. Set up a feeding station with a game camera.

If Lydia is normally an INSIDE cat... then she is definitely scared and hiding and you will need to go out at NIGHT with a flashlight and look for her “glowing” eyes. She is VERY CLOSE to your house… most likely in YOUR OWN YARD. They usually find a hiding spot very quickly and very close to where they escaped. Look up in the trees and check under everything in YOUR YARD first… under decks, under sheds, inside bushes, wood piles and storm drains. Then check your neighbors yards. They are very good at hiding. THE BEST TIME TO FIND HER IS AT NIGHT WITH A FLASHLIGHT AND HER EYES WILL “GLOW” BACK AT YOU. Lydia is so scared, she will NOT respond to you calling her, so you'll have to use your eyes instead of your ears to find her. When cats are suddenly outside, they go into "survival mode" and their entire personality changes. They will NOT wander. They find a hiding spot very close by and are very scared and will not come out for anyone... even their owners. I hope you find your fur-baby very soon!

I'm sorry kitty is missing. The number one piece of advice is to actively work to bring your cat home. Don't just wait for them to show up. Hang fliers--they work. Notify the microchip company that she is missing. Visit local animal controls in person. Notify local veterinarians. Post to the Next Door app for area lost. If kitty is normally indoors only she is likely very close to home. Sit quietly outside at night w a flashlight and look for shining eyes. Put out stinky sardines or mackerel. A trail cam can be helpful. You might need a live trap. Don't lose hope. Best of luck. https://www.missinganimalresponse.com/lost-pet-behaviors/kitty-litter-myth/

If you have a garage, put out a dirty piece of clothing from her favorite person and leave the garage door open enough for her to slip in. If you do not have a garage, put it out where you would see her. Also, Jan Shrum's suggestion to take a flashlight out after dark is a great suggestion. Look under the vehicles nearby. Ask neighbors to check their property, including sheds and garages. Prayers you find her soon.
