Get a picture out to all delivery drivers in your area. UPS, FEDEX, AMAZON, BUS DRIVERS and MAIL CARRIERS. ASK THEM TO PUT THEM UP IN THE BREAK ROOMS. They have eyes 👀 all over the place. Might be able to give a sighting location. GO TO and leave a picture and all local shelters, vet clinics, and police departments. Good luck getting your baby home 🏠 And when you get your baby home please put a collar on with your phone number even if an indoor pet. MICROCHIP AND REGISTERED AND KEEP YOUR INFORMATION CURRENT!!! PLEASE UPDATE YOUR POST IF FOUND!

It would be good if you can focus on a one to two block radius of your location and walk that area and Don 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 bring a flashlight with you to help catch a glimpse of your cat's eyes if it's nearby. A worn piece of clothing often works well on your porch as well as just inside the garage. Like I mentioned previously to help attract your cat if it is near it would also be good to post on neighbor's ring app which covers the 3 mile radius of your location and alerts people that have the app. It can be risky for the cat to try relocating it. It's not familiar with the new area and most tnr are hopefully kept in the same area and not relocated unless absolutely necessary. Which probably makes it even harder for this cat since you just got it!Good luck on a safe return.....

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.....
