Prayer sent and please post it on Nextdoor app🙏 LOST PET TIPS Things to do ASAP if you have lost your pet: • BEWARE OF SCAMS! Do not send money or google codes. Report or block scam phone numbers. • Place scent items & a food station near escape point. • Instruct everyone to not call out to or chase. • File Reports with Police, shelters that cover your area • If microchipped - report to chip company that your pet is lost & verify your information is up-to-date • If you have an electric fence - turn it off • If lost from a fenced yard - secure other pets & open gate • Spread the word: use social media, lostmydoggie, nextdoor, pawboost • Create a simple flyer • Notify neighbors, ask them to check cameras, sheds, garages • Check Shelters in person • Record all sightings in a notebook - date, time, location, direction of travel.

🐾Place some dirty laundry outsid to e, go out shake it I treats, crack a can of catfood and tap it. Look at night with flashlight because their eyes glow. Check in sheds and under porches, decks ect. Talk to neighbors too, make sure they check their shelters . Might have to set a hav a heart trap if he's that skittish. 🔴VERY IMPORTANT!! DO NOT Set a trap in extreme temperatures if trap cannot be constantly monitored and watched. Animals can die quickly left in traps in cold and hot conditions. 🔴Might only come out at night. Sometimes if you leave part of your garage open they will sneak back in. Not sure if that's possible or if you have other animals. I've heard where the cat jumps back in a window. Flyers are VERY important too, someone may have taken him in or seen him. Not everyone is on Facebook-Let your post office delivery person know too in case they hear of someone or see him on the local route- check with neighbors, someone may have brought him in. It's a good idea to hang a sign from your mailbox "LOST CaT" in case they are looking for an owner. You can buy a cheap tasco game camera at wal mart with an SD card and set it up to see if you catch him near by. It surprisingly takes good pictures and is easy to set up- definitely do the dirty laundry and definitely do the tapping of the cat food can. These things really do help🐾🐾🐾don't lose hope. I've had strays remain elusive for over a year before they learn to trust again. They go into survival mode. Be vigilant about flyers, ask neighbors. Sometimes the cat is hanging out at a neighbors close by ***also check with pAw bo0st neXt do0r and find toBy
