Report it to ANIMAL CONTROL as well as Vets and SHELTERS with a picture in case they are brought in injured or for a chip check. Include Groomers and Pet Stores Put up lots and lots of FLYERS!!! Give to neighbors, attach to mailboxes, put up at stores, library, grocery stores everywhere! Give to your postal carrier as they see animals all the time! Sit outside and read a book out loud, the sound of your voice can lure him/her back if he’s close by. Drag his/her bedding around the area of your home. Please create a free account at Petfbi.org This account will send out an alert that s/he is missing, and send you an alert if anyone were to report a cat found near that location. That account could help get your cat back home too. Put on Facebook lost pets page in your town/state etc..and on your local town page!! Check trees, under, in and behind things in your yard and others often. Make your neighbors aware. Please check yours and neighbor’s garages, sheds, porches, barns, basements and under and in vehicles, Cats like to come out @ night so leave A LIGHT ON THE PORCH WITH FOOD and IT'S BEDDING near a CRACKED OPENED DOOR OR WINDOW FOR ENTRY.... NEVER put out litter boxes as it could be used by another cat which could DETER return or attract predators. Use a camera or baby monitor to watch for his /her return, using a havaheart trap with tuna to catch them as well as an unlaundered piece of your laundry. If u put food out be very careful and monitor very closely as it can attract predators. You can borrow a trap from animal control or cat rescue. The ACO or a rescue can help u on how to trap a cat. U must never leave trap unattended. If there are sightings set up a feeding station and camera at sighting area, then when he is spotted on camera you can trap him. It can be helpful to use a flashlight at night to spot its eyes! Look around shrubs, under cars, decks, porches, in garages, sheds, up in trees, in yours and neighbor’s yards. Calling for it several times a day and shaking treats, indoor cats can become disoriented. Calling out helps in RECOGNIZING YOUR VOICE AND DIRECTION! Your cat is in survival mode and may not act as they usually did, he is afraid. Please DO NOT give up! Continue to check & recheck EVERYWHERE. Monitor Facebook, Craigslist and Nextdoor sites for found cats. Cats have been found several years after. Don’t give up, keep the faith and keep looking!!! Put cameras outside, leave door open at night, and contact a cat rescue or www.wanderingpawsk9.com a reputable pet tracker to help you.

Can you contact one of the rescues or ask animal control to come out and set up a trap? If you have any kind of cat bed or blanket or anything with her sent on it and set a trap up so you can catch her would probably be the best thing the last place she was she’s not gonna go far. She’s probably right around the area.

Indoor only kitties usually only go five houses away. Put something with your scent on it ( unwashed clothes) outside. If you have any other cats put something with their scent on it too. Check under your porch if you have one. Check under grills, sheds, in garages, and I’m basements. Check your drawers. They may sound silly but it happens. The cat could've gotten stuck in your neighbors shed. Check yours as well as your neighbors. Also check up in trees in case the cat got treed. Go door-to-door and ask if anyone has seen the kitty, even put flyers in people's mailboxes. Leave bowls of stinky food, such as mackerel or sardines. Shake a bag of treats or cat food while calling their name.If there are any abandoned houses or for sqale houses, with no one living in them check there. Also check down sewer drains just in case. Some cats go in sewer pipes and they can't find their way out. Also look around at night under bushes and in shrubs with a bright flashlight. It may catch on the kitty's eyes. Looking at night when it's quieter is better. You can also set a trap to see if you can catch the kitty. The trap will have to be monitored because you may catch other cats and critters as well. Most indoor cats don’t go more than five or six houses away in either direction. It is very likely that he is near. He was probably seeking warmth so ask your neighbors to check their garages, under their porches and ring cameras if they have them. I can speak from personal experience that shining a flashlight into bushes is extremely helpful, especially at night. That’s how I found my parents’ cat. I hope this helps and that your kitty comes home quickly. Shared. 🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🐾
