Might be loved and lost:
Please door knock ...
If no success, asap distribute found posters and leaflets (as not everyone is on Facebook).
Request proof of ownership (eg photos of cat and owner together not AI generated, microchip papers, or unique, unobvious distinguishing features). Also ID which matches physical address. For safety reasons (to protect from cat hating psychopaths) 😞 ...
Call a rescue for a microchip scan.
Last resort (as stressful for cat, could escape, end up at pound, or worse), take to vet for microchip scan and health check.
If owner located, please explain that most cats need to be locked in for 3+ weeks to bond to a new (or old) home, otherwise sooner or later might try to head back to previous territory and become hopelessly lost ...
Also, most cats are escape artists until bonded to new home (eg breaking through mosquito netting and forcing sliding doors / windows open. Best use a piece of dowell in door / window tracts to prevent opening more than 2cm). To be extra vigilant!
Thanks for caring 🙏Read More
