She is microchipped. The info was just found by the folks who took her!

Anyway, if you haven't already, put up flyers everywhere as many people aren't on social media. Give flyers to every vet clinic, rescue, and shelter in the area in case she turns up. Have all your neighbors (even blocks away) check their cameras, garages, sheds, and crawlspaces. Ask all of them if they had any visitors or contractors doing work on their houses around the time she went missing. If so, call the visitors and businesses and ask them if they had an accidental stowaway. Look up in trees in case she was chased. Walk the neighborhood in the wee hours with a flashlight and look for glowing eyes. Call her in a regular voice (not panicked) and gently shake a treat bag if she likes that kind of stuff. If she's injured or scared, she's probably hunkered down and hiding, but she may not answer you when you call. That's just instinctual, as a vocal cat gives away their location to predators, and an injured cat is prey. Put her beds/ blankets and some of your dirty clothes on your porches and around the perimeter of your yard. When she comes home, take her to a vet to get her checked for a microchip. If she has one, register the chip online with the chip company. If she doesn't have one, get her microchipped and register the chip online. Good luck ❤️

Megan Hinson I volunteer with a TNR group who takes cats in every week - they still microchip the community cats 👍

Suzy Creamcheese I think it was them but not sure she was chipped or not. Their website doesn’t say they chip anymore just “tattoo”

Megan Hinson but you don't know who did it? (If she was TNR'd through Pawmetto Lifeline in the past few years, she's probably microchipped)
