Message from Owner

Our kitty Zoe was last seen in our yard off college way and forest drive in Mount Vernon Friday night, July 31st. 😭 She's fixed, microchipped, wears a pink collar with bright green tracker. About 3 years old. Pretty small with a thin tail. Usually friendly with strangers. Zoe is an indoor/daytime outdoor cat that doesn't usually leave the vicinity, but the scent dog we hired has her trail end abruptly 3 hses down. We've looked at night in trees (scent dog didn't find any trace there), looked in garages and sheds of neighbors, and put out the word on the neighborhood. Any sightings of her or even the collar/tracker would be appreciated. 🙏

For her people: I hope your kitty is safe and home soon. ❤️ Here are some potentially helpful tips—please forgive if you’ve already tried some or if anything doesn’t apply to your situation. ✅ General Tips for Any Lost Cat: - Search indoors thoroughly first—cats can wedge themselves into incredibly small or strange spots. Use a flashlight to check closets, behind appliances, under furniture, and in tight spaces. - Most indoor-only cats stay very close by—often hiding silently within just 1–2 houses. Even outdoor-savvy cats may not go far when lost. - Avoid calling loudly or chasing—lost cats tend to freeze or hide when scared. Use soft, familiar phrases or gentle talking instead. - Set up a scent station at home or the last known location using your unwashed clothing, their bedding, or items that smell like home. - If safe, leave a door or window cracked open while you're home and watching—many cats return silently when things are quiet and calm. - Avoid leaving food or litter outside unless you're actively monitoring. These can attract other animals that might deter your cat. - Consider setting a humane trap—especially if you're seeing your cat or have a suspected hiding spot. Local shelters or rescues can often loan traps and help with setup. - Post to local lost & found pet groups, neighborhood apps (like Nextdoor), Facebook community groups, and bulletin boards. Include a recent photo, your contact info, and where/when your cat was last seen. - Visit local shelters and animal control in person frequently, and file a lost pet report. Cats are sometimes misidentified or mislabeled. - If your cat is microchipped, make sure your contact info is current and report them as missing to the microchip company. 🏠 If Lost Close to Home: - Ask nearby neighbors to check garages, sheds, porches, crawlspaces, and under decks. Cats often slip into tight spots and stay silent. - Search quietly at dusk, dawn, or nighttime using a flashlight. Check under cars, bushes, decks, and along fences. Look for eye reflection (eyeshine). - Keep your home calm and inviting—many cats return when the environment feels safe and familiar again. 📍 If Lost Away from Home: - Set up a scent station at the last known location with familiar-smelling items. Cats often stay nearby and hide until they feel safe enough to come out. - Don’t search too widely or bring large groups—too much activity can keep a cat in hiding longer. - If you’ve had sightings or suspect they’re nearby, use a trap or feeding station. It may take time for a frightened cat to build up the courage to return. 💛 Lost cats often remain close and hidden for days, even weeks. Many return quietly once things feel calm and safe again. Please don’t give up hope.
