Description

Tabby, gray green stripes,, thin, 14 yo, on Rx diet for thyroid + heart condition, drinks lots of water for same. 6+1/2#. Left lanai when construction crew left door open. Under vet care, needs to eat frequently, small portions, throughout the day. Sweet boy, playful, no cuddles but likes to be stretched out nearby. Thank you, his litter mate brother misses Ranger.

Message from Owner

Worker left door open, Ranger got out. I'm sure he's happy to be outside for a bit but has health issues affecting dietary and water needs. His eyes appear unusually large due to constant dilation. Small kitty, 6.5#. it's been storming a lot and he's spooked by thunder. Thanks to people who can help his return

Please read till the end..Walk around calling your cat as you always do. Look under bushes and in hiding places. Look at dawn and dusk with a flashlight to catch the glare of your cat's eyes. Leave garage door and lanai partially open if possible. Your cat will try to get back inside ..most likely at night. Use a trap...The only way to find his way home.or to the trap is by smell. Use some of your used clothes, put them outside and around the trap. A friend of mine used her shirt and dragged it through the neighborhood. Her cat found the smell and followed it home. It is all about the smell. You can also cut a shirt of yours into small small pieces and leave a scent trail back to the trap. I read a few days ago that a lady put out a trace with the old litter throughout the neighborhood. It worked. Her cat came home! Use the litter to lead your cat to the trap. Also try to distribute flyers throughout that neighborhood...as many as you can ( 3 miles radius at least). Check shelters in person...don't just call. Put battery operated trail cameras or motion cameras (Amazon for $25) outside. Your cat might show up in the middle of the night. When you know the time you can wait for for your cat and slow blink to make contact. NEVER GIVE UP! I read once that you can put a chair outside and cover it up with a blanket and the cat can jump up and hide under the blanket and feels safe. They said you should put one of your shirts under the blanket and food and water next to the chair. It might be worth a try to put up a chair
