Message from Owner

My friend roommate unexpectedly let him escape on the 13th or 14th. My friend found him by her apmt the night of the 14th but he saw another cat and jumped from her arms before she could get him inside. Her roommate saw him again the next night but he ran before he could grab him. He lost his collar sometime after he got out. He is microchiped. He is not neutered so he may be wondering around with other cats in the area at night. He has not been seen or heard since the night of the 15th. If seen or found please text me

From SPCA on how to find a lost cat: look around for the closest hiding places. Bring a flashlight look in storm drains; in the heavy brush; up in trees, inside or under sheds; inside garages; under decks; and inside bat crawl spaces – any place where your cat can hide. Stay close by – newly adopted or indoor-only cats are often found within a 3-house radius of their home. Remember your cat may not meow back when you call even though your cat is most likely close by. Your cat is most likely hunkered down to the ground and ready to dart away from any perceived threat – even from you! A cat’s instinct is to hide, stay put, and NOT meow. Put Food, Water, Litter Box, and Bedding Outside: place near the point of escape or close to a good hiding spot nearby. Use strong-smelling canned cat food that your cat can smell from a distance, so your cat knows where to go for food a can of tuna or sardines works wonders. Go out extremely late at night and early mornings with a flashlight and can of tuna, keep your garage door or patio door open a little so the cat can get in. LEAVE YOUR DOOR OPEN SLIGHTLY DURING THE TIME YOUR HOME SO IT CAN GET BACK IN, MAYBE EVEN PUT SOME FOOD BY THE DOOR. Talk to Neighbors: Immediately start talking to your closest neighbors. and ask them to actively search their own property for your cat. Put signs up in your immediate neighborhood with large print saying, “LOSS CAT.” Include a photo, date lost, and phone number where you can be reached 24/7. It could take days, or longer, to get your cat back inside. Do not give up if your cat fails to show up after a day or so. And do not just wait for your cat to come back. You need to actively search for and lure your cat back home. Keep looking in those same old hiding spots – depending on how much time has passed, your cat may be moving from one hiding spot to another. Also, try new spots and enlarge your search area step by step, house by house. Post on "Next-door" app for your area, go out looking for your fur baby and when found keep the cat inside. check https://www.pawboost.com/lost-found-pets?status=101..I would also check the Nevada Humane Society and look at pictures of cats up for adoption, in case kitty was found and not claimed in 5 days and sent there for adoption. Have you asked neighbors to check inside their sheds, garages and under decks? Maybe give them some food to put in these places for few days to see it it gets eaten, also water. There was a loss cat found locked in a shed for 2 weeks alive but skinny, so it's possible. Are you sure kitty got out could be hiding in house, check under, in and behind all furniture and appliances, check in all drawers and cabinets, under mattress and in all vents if you live in an apartment community, ask the office if they can send out a mass email to all the residents so they can watch for the cat, include a picture .

Lost Cat Go outside and call for your cat like every five or 10 minutes relentlessly. If you have a can of treats, I would shake that every five or 10 minutes as well. A lot of times cats are scared and hiding close by. I say this from experience with my own cat I really hope you find your kitty.🙏🐈‍⬛🐈‍⬛🙏

I'm the one that did this submittal but its not my cat its my friends. I'm not sure if my friend has tried putting food out since the 1st night or not. But I gave her one of my hoodies a couple nights ago that I've been wearing all week that also smells of his sisters whom I own and told her to put it outside. Shes working on saving up the money to, she had just moved from living with me a couple weeks ago and got a job shortly before that so her funds are tight at the moment. He's been being kept as an indoor cat because of not being fixed yet so shes been trying to be responsible with that. It's her roommate that accidentally let him escape out of his open window.

I don’t know how you can leave food out for him cause I don’t know where your apartment is like if you have an outdoor area. When you find them, please get him neutered.
