Did you find Oliver? We found an orange tabby in Phoenixville tonight. Without seeing Oliver’s face it’s hard to tell if it’s him. The cat we found has distinctive double paws!

Put out unwashed laundry around the home, never the litter! Cats that escape are usually close but scared (or trapped in someone’s shed or garage). Go out very late at night and call softly and calmly. Then listen carefully. Shake treats, tap a can, whatever normally makes them come running to you. Use a flashlight to look into bushes and under patios at night. Many cats come back around the house in the middle of the of the night so cameras help! Also, posters! Taped up as well as hand-delivered to neighbours… nothing beats having more eyes out in the area they escaped from! (And not everyone is on Social Media!!) Good luck and don’t give up hope 🍀 🤞🏻💕 Indoor cats that get out go into “survival mode” so don’t be alarmed if they aren’t acting like themselves at first :)

Rent or borrow a humane trap. The SPCA and other animal shelters rent them out for $100. When you return the trap you get your $100 back. Place the trap near where the cat escaped. Put some of the cat's favorite food and treats inside of the trap along with an article of your clothing with your scent on it. This method worked for me on two different occasions. If you trap the wrong cat or some other animal, put a blanket over the trap leaving the door exposed. Stand behind the trap and release the animal. Reset the trap. Time is of the essence so do this asap. Good luck and God bless.

I'm pretty sure I saw him when I was coming home from work last night at about 2:00 am. There was an orange cat around Hodgson & 5th. I made a mental note because I thought it might be one of the strays from a colony a couple blocks over. He seemed fine and healthy. I know that probably doesn't help, though. We will keep an eye out.

Borrow a trap from your Vet and set it close to where cat got out. Put food in the trap and put worn Tshirt for your scent. Cover the trap with a towel or cat’s blanket.

Missing outdoor access cats I would ask neighbors if they would open their sheds/garages that they don’t use every day to see if your cat accidentally got shut inside. Displacement for outdoor-access cats happens when the cat is chased out of their known territory (i.e. beat up by another cat, chased by a dog, or even panicked by fireworks where the cat bolts in fear and ends up in a yard he has never been in before). It’s possible your cat got pushed further away from your home than normal & he’s now in unfamiliar territory, not able to find his way home. You should make flyers with a couple pictures of your cat, along with your contact information, & ask neighbors to watch for your cat & check their outside security camera footage for sightings. I would hand these out within a 3-4 block radius of your home. When an outdoor cat disappears, it can mean that something has happened to interfere with the cat returning home, such as someone taking the cat in because they thought it was abandoned, the cat is injured, or the cat is trapped somewhere, unable to get out. If you haven’t gone to your neighbors & asked to look under their decks, porches, sheds, etc., I would do that because your neighbors aren’t going to get on their bellies & crawl under places to look for your cat.
