I hope you find your baby dont be afraid to pester the shelter and resend flyers remember they can get far from home also given the weather someone could have picked baby up to save it or just taken it before to check with anyone who might have an issue with you because you never know many blessings you could look up a lost pet prayer and pray it I lost a cat once for over 20 days I started the prayer and within 12 days he was found a black cat in the desert for 30 plus days was found on Camp Pendleton what are the odds. People say it was luck I dont but that's me.

Lost Cats‼️ Indoor only cats and limited outdoor access cats never go far. They go into survival mode and hide in silence. Most of them will not respond when they are in survival mode. 3 AM is the best time to find a missing indoor only cat. This is the time they become most active and responsive. Sit and quietly call for your kitty. Try to stay low, standing is intimidating to cats. Place some dirty socks and pillow cases outside. Your scent will attract your kitty. If you have a garage, place the items near the garage door and crack the door enough for her to get in. DO NOT leave food or litter box outside, it can attract predators and aggressive Tom cats. Because indoor only cats hide so well they are not as likely to be killed by a predator. Don't give up, it can take months to find a missing indoor only cat. Use a flashlight as late at night as you can to look in trees, under cars and in bushes. Try to look for the glow of her eyes. The best chance of you being reunited with your cat is to do a methodical search of the area. Most indoor only cats will be within 160 feet of your home. Survival mode lasts 5 to 14 days but can last longer. Once their hunger gets to a maximum they can snap out of it but this is a dangerous time because they come out of hiding. The majority of cats will try to make a break for home on the 5th night. In addition to posted flyers, make mini flyers and hand them out to your neighbors. Some people don't pay attention to posted flyers. It's VERY VERY important that you look for her as late at night as you can. If you have other cats, watch them. If they are spending a lot of time looking out a certain window, that’s a good indication the missing cat is in that area. Wildlife and motion activated cameras are also helpful. a lot of people are successful trapping their indoor only cats. If you decide to trap, you must watch the trap closely, predators can a cat in a trap.

Don't put her litter box outside that will invite other cats and predators which will muddle her scent. I've had some experience with this and actually read an articlethat said that the safer way is to put out something with your scent you are her safe place your scent will carry on the air.or her blanket you can change it if you think it has lost its scent

Ask the delivery drivers and mail personnel to keep am eye out check the shelter make sure they are aware of him so if he gets brought in they don't accidentally put him down chk shelters within a 2.5 to 5 mile radius yes he could get that far but if he was taken that's about how far someone usually travels away before dumping. If you had problems or if thier is a particular person in neighborhood who hates cats I'd keep eye out same goes for someone who shows to much attention not liking or thinking it's safe for him to be out . Keep the search fresh in people's minds and check with local vets if he was hit or someone yook him they may might take him in for medical care.

If you can put out something heavy with your scent he will smell it your scent travels further will be more familiar and is a comforting scent which should draw him back home. Put it in a safe but accessible place near the area he disappeared from or usually hangs out in. He will probably be near it hiding in not to long a time. I've read recently in several rescues that this technique works. And the scent will last even if it rains and you can change the item every couple days. Putting Flyers in mail boxes and local vets and businesses doesn't hurt. Ask delivery people and mail personnel if they would take a flyer and keep an eye out they are in neighborhood and might see him. Check shelters and vets let them know your looking and that way if he's brought in they are aware he's lost . Good luck don't be afraid to call every couple of days. If you see him do not run after him he might be scared call to him let him know it's you carry his favorite toy treat or blanket to help reassure him.
