Please Help my cat Salem has gotten out of the hse, he’s been missing since March 30th of 2026. He’s not chipped and he is not neutered. He won’t have a collar on and he is skiddish but very friendly he will respond to his name Salem. Please contact me if he is seen or found anywhere.

🙏❤️ Leave a door open at night too... big enough for the cat to get back in their home .... it worked for my cat.

Pass out flyers in person to neighbors (not everyone has the internet) and post at local vet offices, grocery/pet stores, police/fire stations, shelters, etc. Distribute flyers everywhere and to all missing pet sites online. Check local shelters daily for new intakes - in person if possible, many times pets are described differently by intake workers than you would really describe them, i.e. wrong breed, etc. Praying that your little one is back home soon!
