Here are a few things you can try. Cats usually don’t go far. They just hide well. Cats are very active at dusk and dawn. So first of all you can go out and call for him. You can put his food/water, and lots of cat nip outside your house to help draw him back. Also, put your cat's bedding that has your cat's scent on it outside to attract your cat back to your home. Also putting your own unwashed clothes or bedding out . Cats run on scent and this is highly effective in luring your cat back home .PetMD backs this up, can help lure the cat back home, as it's a comfortable and familiar smell. Shake the treat/food container outside. Check garages, especially under porches and decks,dense bushes, etc. Get one of those strong flashlights they will catch a cat's reflective eyes two blocks away and save you tons of time!!! Do not leave the food out overnight as it will attract other animals that can scare the kitty away. Go to your neighbors and let them know your kitty got out and give them your contact info. Walk your neighborhood and talk to people as you can. Take a flyer TO your local vets office and shelter a face is better than a thousand words of description and check every couple of days in person if possible Sometimes it can take weeks or months to find your kitty. Also post with Pawboost and Sam the Parrot about your missing cat. Many times cats are found within a couple hundred feet of their homes. Post fliers around your neighborhood with your phone number that people can call day or night. And talk to your mail carrier. They see lots of animals. If they see a strange kitty around, they may recognize it as yours. Make sure you call local animal shelters, etc Best time to look is between 1-6AM Get a humane trap ASAP! This it's the best chance at retrieving your cat. Line it with newspaper. The ONLY food you leave out should be in that trap. Do not leave the trap set for long periods of time unattended, especially overnight. The most importantly do not give up hope! Open your garage door a little. Don’t put the litter box out. 🙏🏻Also take a flashlight out at night and look in and under things to see if you can see the kitty’s eyes.

Awww, he is so cute. Don't give up!! My cat was lost for seven weeks last summer and I got him back!! Cats that are not used to being outside become very fearful and skittish, so it's more challenging to catch them. He's probably scared and hiding/seeking shelter nearby. Be sure to let the employees at Dollar General know so they can be on the lookout for him. A couple of things helped me get my cat back. The first was putting fishy canned cat food on my front porch in late afternoon/early evening. I did it before dark because I was worried about other animals and I wanted to watch for him. He came back around as soon as I put the fishy food outside. It's important because they can smell it from farther away. I also ended up setting a humane trap because he wouldn't let me approach him. I caught him almost immediately after setting the trap. I believe you can borrow a humane trap from Humane Ohio on Alexis Road. Put flyers up in the area. Post on Sylvania/Toledo Lost and Found Pet page and Toledo and Surrounding Area Lost and Found Pet page to get the word out. Sending prayers for sweet little Paco to be safe and home very soon. Please get him neutered as soon as he's back home. It could be why he's not coming back, because he's out looking for female cats. Humane Ohio and Toledo Humane Society Community Pet Care Clinic offer low cost spay/neuter programs.
