Cats are attracted to the smell of their owners. Grab anything that smells strongly of you like used socks, used undershirts used bedding and get them outside. If you don't have a lot that smells like you, I suggest you grab paper towels and rub them on your body and scalp, armpits (with no deodorant) and even your feet. Spread the paper towels/used clothing as far out as you can and start concentrating them closer to a trap or whatever door or window the kitty escaped from. Also, change these out frequently as freezing temperatures can odors. If you decide to use a trap cover the trap with your used bedding and place dry food and water inside the trap. Check the Trap frequently as cats can dehydrate, overheat or get very cold with wide the temperature swings in the desert. Make sure to leave no stone unturned inside your house before opening your door. I mean, look in even the most obscure places you don't think a cat could possibly hide. I found one of my cats hiding literally between the wall and the dresser. I looked under the dresser and didn't see any feet. She parkoured her way up the wall and stayed like that for a couple of hours. It was crazy.

From SPCA on how to find a lost cat: look around for the closest hiding places. Bring a flashlight look in storm drains; in the heavy brush; up in trees, inside or under sheds; inside garages; under decks; and inside basement crawl spaces – any place where your cat can hide. Stay close by – newly adopted or indoor-only cats are often found within a 3-house radius of their home. Remember your cat may not meow back when you call even though your cat is most likely close by. Your cat is most likely hunkered down to the ground and ready to dart away from any perceived threat – even from you! A cat’s instinct is to hide, stay put, and NOT meow. Put Food, Water, Litter Box, and Bedding Outside: place near the point of escape or close to a good hiding spot nearby. Use strong-smelling canned cat food that your cat can smell from a distance, so your cat knows where to go for food a can of tuna or sardines works wonders. Go out extremely late at night and early mornings with a flashlight and can of tuna, keep your garage door or patio door open a little so the cat can get in. LEAVE YOUR DOOR OPEN SLIGHTLY DURING THE TIME YOUR HOME SO IT CAN GET BACK IN, MAYBE EVEN PUT SOME FOOD BY THE DOOR. Talk to Neighbors: Immediately start talking to your closest neighbors. and ask them to actively search their own property for your cat. Put signs up in your immediate neighborhood with large print saying, “LOSS CAT.” Include a photo, date lost, and phone number where you can be reached 24/7. It could take days, or longer, to get your cat back inside. Do not give up if your cat fails to show up after a day or so. And do not just wait for your cat to come back. You need to actively search how much time has passed, your cat may be moving from one hiding spot to another. Also, try new spots and enlarge your search area step by step, house by house. Post on "Next-door" app for your area, go out looking for your fur baby and when found keep the cat inside. check https://www.pawboost.com/lost-found-pets?status=101..I would also check the Nevada Humane Society and look at pictures of cats up for adoption, in case kitty was found and not claimed in 5 days and sent there for adoption. Have you asked neighbors to check inside their sheds, garages and under decks? Maybe give them some food to put in these places for few days to see it it gets eaten, also water. There was a loss cat found locked in a shed for 2 weeks alive but skinny, so it's possible. Are you sure kitty got out could be hiding in house, check under, in and behind all furniture and appliances, check in all drawers and cabinets, under mattress and in all vents if you live in an apartment community, ask the office if they can send out a mass email to all the residents so they can watch for the cat, include a picture .
