Message from Owner

I just found this page. We’ve lost our Smokey. While on vacay he made a hole big enough in our screen and jumped out. When our friend came to check on him he was gone. He had a collar and tag on but sometimes he gets it off. Please help

Cats should not be left outside unattended. That is exactly how they get into trouble. Searching for him is the fastest way to get him back. Sad seeing so many kitties go missing just this week. Poor baby, he must be so scared and hungry out on his own. When a cat goes missing, they can’t easily find their way home using only their scent. You must be proactive and look for them. Look under cars, bushes & hedges, look for glowing eyes w/flashlight, call his name at dusk when it’s quiet and they come out from hiding to eat.Posting is important, but please be proactive and search for him, too.They don’t go far, 3-4 houses away, they stay in one place until they are scared off by dogs, coyotes, or loud noises. The challenge is finding him before he gets further away. Please hang flyers near the area he went missing, it’ll let your neighbors know you’re looking for him and get the immediate attention from pedestrians and drivers. You’re the one that can bring him home safely, he’ll recognize your voice, footsteps and your scent. Post on ND, check SDHS Lost & Found daily. If you’re able to find him, PLEASE, please don’t let him out unattended. Cats have the intelligence of a 3yo, they don’t know the dangers, they face outdoors with coyotes, dogs, cars, and worst of all evil people who taunt or injure cats. It only takes an hour to train a cat on a leash, then he can be outdoors safely with you. 🐈‍⬛ Good luck finding this gorgeous little guy 🐾💙🐾

I keep praying you find your baby i know its been a while but miracles do happen have you looked for a lost pet prayer? I tried it after my cat went missing in the desert he was a black city cat lost on camp Pendleton for 30 days after a move but I found a lost pet prayer and started praying and asked saint Francis of Assis to protect him and within a week he was found. Whether it was luck or divine intervention its all up to how you want to interpret it. I believe God and saint Francis stepped in. Praying never hurts.
