❗ Please try this ❗ Around sunset, Put a dish,not a can of fishy wet food,or tuna outside near the escape area,put a minicamera pointing at the food dish,so you can observe from your device(s) what animals go up to the food dish, if you see your cat, later,or the next night, set up a humane (Havahart type ) trap nearby,put the food dish inside, and attach the minicamera to the ceiling,inside the trap, pointing down, at an angle,so you can see from your device what animals go inside the trap,put some wet food outside the trap, put a towel over the trap, covering the trap, not the entrance,if possible,use one of your towels,or your cat's unwashed towels.,or throws. You can borrow,or rent a humane trap from your local animal shelter,SPCA,from someone who does TNR and rescue, call veterinary clinics to see if you can borrow their's, you can rent from a feed and tractor supply store, a hardware store, a Lewis Rents,or buy one for $30 from Harbor Freight. Recommended Camera Models (All with Night Vision) 1. Blink Outdoor 4 (Best Overall Wire-Free Option) • Power Type: 100% Wire-Free (Runs completely on 2 AA lithium batteries). • Night Vision: High-definition Infrared (IR) night vision for clear grayscale footage in total darkness. • Trap Deployment: Extremely easy to position inside a larger humane box trap or strap to a nearby tree facing the entrance because there are no cords to manage. • Important Requirement: Must stay within wireless range of its included Sync Module plugged inside your house. 2. Wyze Cam v4 (Best Value If Near a Power Source) • Power Type: Wired (Requires a continuous power cord / USB connection). • Night Vision: Advanced Color Night Vision that reveals full-color details in low-light settings, alongside traditional black-and-white IR mode for pitch blackness. • Trap Deployment: A tiny cube with an IP65 weatherproof rating and a strong magnetic base that can snap onto a metal plate attached to your trap. • Important Requirement: Has no internal battery. It must be plugged into an outdoor outlet or a portable power bank via USB. 3. TP-Link Tapo C113 / 2K (Best for Offline Local Recording) • Power Type: Wired (Requires a continuous power cord / DC adapter). • Night Vision: Crisp 850 nm Infrared night vision providing clear images up to 30 feet away in the dark. • Trap Deployment: Compact mini bullet style that can be easily wire-tied or zipped to the interior frame of a humane trap. • Important Requirement: Has no internal battery. It supports local MicroSD card storage, allowing video to record directly to the device without requiring a monthly cloud subscription. How to Fasten and Position the Camera • Zip Ties / Cable Ties: Run heavy-duty zip ties through the camera's mounting bracket or base, weaving them tightly through the wire mesh at the top ceiling of the humane trap. • Heavy-Duty Magnets: Secure a small metal plate to the top exterior of your trap mesh. This allows cameras with built-in magnetic bases (like Wyze) to snap firmly into place from the inside. • Camera Angle: Point the lens downward and slightly angled toward the bait. This ensures you observe both the food and the animal's face, helping you safely identify if you have caught the target animal, a raccoon, or a neighborhood pet. Essential Deployment Checklist • Enable Night Vision Mode: Ensure the camera's setting is set to 'Auto' or forced 'On' for Night Vision/IR mode before leaving the trap, as target animals are highly nocturnal. • Verify Wi-Fi Signal: For live streaming, test your Wi-Fi connection directly next to the trap setup outside to guarantee the live feed loads cleanly without delay. You can find these minicameras on Amazon or Walmart

Post on Nextdoor in Cat Owner's group, and in Lost and Found Pets group, post on Neighbors app, they're both good resources to notify the community you don't need a Ring camera to post on Neighbors.

Check in bushes and under cars near your home, and on the next street over, especially in the evening with a flashlight to catch the reflection of her eyes, calling out to her and making a familiar sound. Ask neighbors if they might have seen her, and when they last did and which direction she headed if they have. If they have security cameras, video footage would help. Ask them if she might be trapped in their garage or shed. I hope she is found soon🙏🏻
