Can the person who has spotted it, please get it indoors. Any Veterinarian can scan a found kitty for a microchip... Paws crossed for this pretty kitty.

I wrote this and typed it up. I personally have used most of the suggestions in my own kitties' missing events over the years. Hoping that your furry member of the family doesn't stay lost. *please feel to share!! VB It is said that most lost cats don't go very far from home. Here are some tips that might help you to locate your kitty. Make a flyer with a good picture of your cat. Post all over your neighborhood, and the surrounding neighborhoods. And post in nearby Veterinary Practices. Talk to every delivery carrier which serves your neighborhood, UPS, FedEx, Prime, US Postal Service, etc, and any other regular service (such as delivery pizza, etc). Flyers will hopefully develop sightings, and that will help, too. Talk to every neighbor and give them a flyer. Ask them to look in window wells, crawl spaces, in every garage, in lawn buildings and sheds, under all covered equipment like furniture, and grills, and under any covered vehicles. Put food out near your home. Perhaps have some socks with your scent nearby. **A recent personal experience with this in our family helped also reinforce the usefulness of very late at night, and very EARLY in the morning, walking all over your neighborhood with a good flashlight and *SOFTLY* calling your kitty's name. Look in storm drains, under bushes, etc. Not really easy to do, but with almost no traffic, you might hear/ and be heard. There are animal trackers, and social media, and your local animal shelter. Go in person to look at their found animals! Many posts of both LOST and FOUND have no photo! GOOD LUCK!
