Beautiful Cat. If chipped, be sure to inform the chip company that kitty is lost!...hope these suggestions help:. Many lost cats have been found using the suggestions from both these websites. Please take the time to read through the sites, it might bring you your kitty! Please visit the website of: communitycatcoalitionwa.org....this is a professional rescue site that offers valuable information about finding lost cats. Go to the main menu for the drop down box and open 2 different tabs: Finding Lost Cats and Happy Endings for this info.this www.missinganimalresponse.com....this also is a professional rescue site that offers valuable information about finding lost cats. Again, go to the main menu for appropriate tabs to open... Be sure to open and read Lost Cat Behavior as this has unusual data about lost cat behavior that you wouldn't guess and may assist your search.....especially for indoor only cats! 💙Additionally, file a Lost Cat report with your local county humane society ( often done online) as found cats can be surrendered there, reported as found there or chip checked there!💙 in Thurston County its petcolovelost.org ❤And check your local county humane society for their books of " found" or " reported seen" cats that are either at the shelter or at the finders' home. Many local shelters are full and ask the finders to hold the found cats. There will be photos and contact information!❤ Another site to file you cat as lost is phshelter.com....and ....lostmykitty.com....which cross references shelters' surrendered, found cats! Best wishes😿💖 PS...most indoor only cats are pretty scared of being outside and can be probably pretty close by! Go out at night with a flashlight and look under the house, deck, cars, shrubs and bushes, in outbuildings, up in trees and in all small crawlspaces. Her eyes will shine in the dark! During the day, just walk around the property and converse with her like you're talking to a baby ( in that baby talk voice)....doesn't matter what you say....just talk.....scaredy cats often don't respond to their names but will respond to your voice in talk! Also post on your local NEXTDOOR APP. page and local PAWBOOST APP. page which gets the most lost and found post views! PS...50% of folks don't use social media! Go to your neighborhood, knock on doors, leave your name and number and show photos! Keep checking the shelters every other day. Surrenders are usually held for 3 days before being put up for adoption. Another tip: make Lost Cat posters,with photo, put them onto bright colored card stock ( dollar store) with a contact#, put into clear plastic bags or tape clear plastic or Saran Wrap to it and staple to telephone polls near your areas. Best wishes in finding your kitty.😔 Also : petFBI.org PS....Beware of posts suggesting "business " that offer pet finding/tracking services originating from Instagram, Twitter or unnamed phone numbers. They are well known scams and will take your money and mine your personal data including banking/credit cards. 3Retrievers.com is one of the only legit pet finder organizations that I'm aware is real.

Post on Nextdoor and Ring apps. Ask neighbors to check car hoods, garages and sheds immediately. Make sure to tap hoods of the car around. Keep an entryway open for cat to get in. Buy or loan a live cat trap from online stores or local tnr groups. Leave your garage open with cat to enter. Put some food and your clothing there for smell. Get a motion sensor camera to detect when cat is around your property

The best time to look for a cat is late at night after the daytime sounds settle down. Go for a walk and take a flashlite scan into the trees and under bushes. A cat can fit in any hole that they can fit their head thru they have collapsible shoulder blades. Most indoor cats stay close to home but come out at night. Most important is to make your presence known. Go out every half hour after 9pm and call for them and stop and listen it's amazing what you can hear late at night. Get your voice and scent out there. They are looking for you also. Look for glowing eyes at night. If there is a dog sibling that the cat likes take the dog on the walk. If you open canned cat food or shake treats do so on your walk. If the cat has a noisy toy shake it on your walk. Make posters and put in every business within a mile of the home. Let your mail carrier know. If there are teenagers in the neighborhood let them know they love reward money and being a hero. Check all local shelters. Let local veterinarians know your info. If there is a feral colony near you check it out. If you can find the feeder of the colony give them your info. Make large signs and put in neighbors yards at least a mile radius of the home. This ensures that everyone in the area has the info. Put post it notes on your neighbors doors to look in sheds and garages. Post on every Facebook forum in your area. Post on Pawboost and For the love of Louie. Check Humane Society. So important to make your presence known every half hour after 9pm. Make a bed out of the cats carrier and put soiled clothes from inside the home around the bed. Put it as close to the house as you can. Leave a shed or garage open check them often. Camp in your yard. Most indoor cats are found late at night. Don't give up. Do not put food out or litter it attracts every animal in the area including raccoon opossum feral cats and coyotes. Your cat will know that there is food inside and that is incentive to keep them close to the house. If you are outside that's OK but take it in when you go back in. If your cat sees a predator eating their food it might make them retreat further. Most important is to let them know you are looking for them. Hope you find your baby
