Black male shorthair cat. The picture is of his brother but he looks very similar but with a small white spot on his chest. He is skittish. He is also fixed. Might be drawn to canned tuna. Hopefully his microchip is still in. His brother's came out.

Message from Owner

Please share any info you can. We have a few cats but this boy is my wife's favorite. We're both upset but she's taking this hard. I left the door open and I've spent all day looking for a sign of him. I'm so sorry to him and my wife. We just want him back safe. His shaking tail when he's happy means the world to us. He is fixed. First time outside at around 4 years old. I'm sure he is scared and lonely for the first time in his life. The picture is of his attached brother. Dante has a small white spot on his chest. He is a little overweight and slightly on the larger side. I'm sure he is hiding as much as he can. Please check decks, sheds and any covering he can hide in. Especially since a storm is happening. He is skittish so don't engage unless it is feasible to catch him. I'm praying for his safe return.

These are general search tips and not all may apply in your situation. Search at night w/ a flashlight (eyes will glow). Check up in trees and inside/under things in your yard and up to 4 - 5 houses away. Search garages, sheds, under decks and bushes, in crawl spaces, behind AC units - any place the cat might be trapped or hiding. Many cats go into hiding mode for safety and won't come when they hear their owner's voice but try calling and try either shaking a can/bag of treats or carrying an open (smelly) can of cat food or fish. Put something w/ the cat's scent on the porch (cat bed, scratching post, sofa pillows). Keep your garage door up enough to allow entry. Keep fresh bowls of water out. Put up large missing cat posters (neon poster board works well), talk to neighbors (leave info for those not home), post on all local social media groups and make sure to check with local animal control at least once a week (better to go in person but at least call and send them a photo). If not found at night with a flashlight, go out during early morning, before dawn, as many cats are active around that time. If not found in a few days, you can always buy a humane cat trap but traps *must* be checked multiple times each day, every day. If the cat is microchipped, please make sure the chip company has your updated contact information. And even if the cat has a chip, you still need to check with animal control as chips sometimes are overlooked or migrate down. Please search often and don't give up hope.
