If you haven't already done so, post to Nextdoor, Felines 209 (there is a duplicate group so make sure you are posting to the Felines 209 group with 23k+ members), the Ring app, Lostmykitty, and 24Petconnect (they will contact all shelters in the area) to cover all your bases as not everyone is on social media. If cat is microchipped, contact microchip company and also update your address with them, if needed. Talk to your neighbors to see if they saw your cat, if they would look at security camera video to see which direction he wandered off, and for them to check their garage/shed in case your cat got locked inside. Put up brightly colored flyers in the neighborhood and extend out to 1.5 miles as cats travel. Indoor-outdoor cats travel up to a 17-house radius, from home. If safe, go out late at night/very early morning and rattle the cat's favorite food/treats. Use a flashlight as cats eyes are reflective in the dark when a light is aimed at them. If your cat is an inside cat, they normally do not wander off too far so chances are it is nearby so check under bushes and up in trees. Indoor only cats tend to only travel 54 yards, or roughly a 2.5-house radius, from their homes. People expect that if they call for the cat, the cat’s going to come to them, but they won’t because they’re terrified. Also, if safe, leave garage door open just enough for the cat to squeeze through if he tries to get in. If your cat escaped from a window, leave that window open as your cat may try getting back in the same way it escaped. You can also leave some of your worn clothing outside as cats have a keen sense of smell. Praying your cat returns home soon.
