Most cats are scared when they get out. They find first safe spot and this is where they stay, this is usually within a half block from your home in any direction. Best time to look is after midnite and up to 3 am when the scarey daytime noises stop. Sit outside your house, near the place kitty escaped from. Stay put for at least an hour, talking in a normal tone so kitty can hear you. Have familiar smells with you, like litter box or favorite food or treats. If weather is mild, consider sleeping on your porch. Do this every night, same time...between midnight and 3 am. You could also try walking around the neighborhood. Take a flashlight and shine it to watch for the glow of cat eyes. Take a can of food or treats to shake. .something your cat loves. Softly call kitty name. You may have to go several nights in row, at same time. Kitty will be cautious, must know it is you before she shows herself. Listen closely for soft meows...she wants to be found. Don't give up, cats are resilient and smart. I would be so bold as to say 95% of lost cats are within a hundred feet of house but are not found because owner gives up. Cats can be missing for weeks and months, being steps from your house. Many good stories of cats coming home, even after much time passes. Hang flyers in neighborhood. ..people need to know she is missing, so they don't assume she is a stray if they see her. I found my cat after putting flyers on house for blocks in my neighborhood. People have seen her, someone may be feeding her...you have to get word out IN YOUR NEIGHBORHOOD! Have neighbors check garages and sheds. She could be trapped in one of those locations. Contact shelters and stay in touch with them. Most importantly, have faith and be consistently persistent in active regular searches AT NIGHT. good luck with getting her back. It will happen. Believe.

'My career as a fighter, I started out, I worked on a wetwash wagon. I was an orphan. My father got kiIIed before I was born. He got kiIIed in an accident. He was working in one of them sweat clothing shops and somebody pushed the elevator and he got crushed to death. We were nine kids. I worked on a wetwash wagon with a fellow by the name of Phil Rosenberg. He was a boxer of some sorts. I was a rough kid in the streets. Like all kids fifty years back were rough kids. We used to deliver wet wash, bundles of wet wash. Used to get a nickel a bundle to bring them up to the fourth floor, fifth floor, carry twenty, twenty-five pounds. I'm talking about 1919, 1920. My right name is Charley Green. This fellow had a fight on a Friday night and he didn't feel good, Phil Rosenberg. I says, 'How much you going to get for the fight?' He says fifteen dollars. I says, 'Gimme your license. I'll fight for fifteen dollars.' It was illegal. I had no license. I was a rough kid in the street. You had to fight to survive at that time. So I went ahead. I could handle myself very well in the street amongst kids my age. I continued with the name of Rosenberg. I got in the ring and they put gloves on me. I said what the good are these? You got to lose with these. You can't pick up a baseball bat or nothing. As I say, I was brought up the hard way, brought up amongst a lot of Irish boys, Italian boys. So I went in there. I got fifteen dollars. I didn't get hurt. I was scared. I was scared of the crowd. The crowd scared me. I went ahead and a couple of weeks later they asked if I'd fight again. I could sell a lot of tickets because I was a neighborhood kid. I was born on the East Side but I was raised in Harlem. So I went ahead and I fought again and got twenty dollars. You know how many bundles I had to deliver for twenty dollars?' - Charley Phil RosenbergRent or borrow a humane trap. The SPCA and other animal shelters rent them out for $100. When you return the trap you get your $100 back. Place the trap near where the cat escaped. Put some of the cat's favorite food and treats inside of the trap along with an article of your clothing with your scent on it. This method worked for me on two different occasions. If you trap the wrong cat or some other animal, put a blanket over the trap leaving the door exposed. Stand behind the trap and release the animal. Reset the trap. Time is of the essence so do this asap. Good luck and God bless.
