A worn piece of clothing often works well if you put on your porch as well as just inside the garage. Like I mentioned previously. It would be good to post on neighbor's ring app which covers a three plus mile radius of your location and alerts people that have the app. It would be good to especially focus on a one to two block radius of your home especially at Dawn dusk and feeding time shaking a bag of cat treats or cat food vigorously to help attract your cat's attention if it's nearby and also bring a flashlight with you to help catch a glimpse of your cat's eyes if it's nearby. When you search this one to two black radius, make sure you also check trees shrubbery window wells under decks and porches where they're often found and ask your neighbors to check their shed and garage where cats also are often. Found. You hear good news soon. Good luck!

Flyers are very important. They are best put in a zip gallon bag that is upside down to protect from the elements. It was just recently that both the dog and a cat were reunited by flyers alone since the people that found the animals did not have social media. If you adopted from a rescue, they usually like to know ASAP that a former animal is missing. If your cat has a microchip, it's good to make sure your contact information is up to date so you can be contacted if your cat is found. Cats tend to stay close to home before they wander so time is of the essence. Make sure your cat is not hiding in the garage in a closet in a dresser, drawer or behind furniture which often happens. I've heard of a few cats returning home the past few years when the owner left their garage open about 5 inches with a worn piece of clothing on the inside of the garage near the opening to help attract the cat if it comes close back to home but not too wide. So you do not attract unwanted animals. It's good if you go check outside on your block around Dawn and dusk with a flashlight looking in shrubbery and under decks and porches to hopefully catch a glimpse of your cat's eyes if it is close by. Usually cats are scared when they first leave home and might not even respond to you. So the flashlight might come in handy to catch a glimpse of the eyes. It's also good to check your local animal control in person daily because things change very often and best in person. It's also good to check local rescues and shelters in your area daily. Hoping for a quick and safe return.....

Go out as much as you can after dusk as that is when he will come back to try to get inside. Also early am. Open garage door and then door leading into the house, she may walk in on own. Open a window at night to listen for meows.

Please place his bedding outside, along with the owner's unwashed clothing front and back door with a can of tuna on each entrance, you can leave your garage door a bit open as well. In case it comes in that way. And leaving food there as well. Also vacuumed home dirt in a stocking hanging it in front and back of home enterence . Show your neighbors a picture of the cat. Ten houses to the left ten house to the right front and back if they spot him to give you a call immediately. Go early in the morning and shake treats calling the cats name when things are quiet.. scare neighbors to check their sheds and garage.Just in case it's trapped.. Also, you can install a camera to monitor and see if the cat is around your house . Best of luck finding your kitty 🙏 ❤️🏡🐾
