Gisele Oberrich if you read what the owner wrote, a repair man let her cat outside. This woman did not intentionally let her cat outdoors. And, even if she did let her cat outdoors, your comments are not helpful when a person is hurting. Please do better! 🙏

Mike Sattler Thanks for sharing your advice! Cat rescue experts now advise NOT to put the cat litter box outside. This is because it can attract aggressive Tom cats and other predators (dogs, coyotes etc), which can chase the cat that you are trying to find away. The reason that cats bury their waste is so that they cover up their scent to predators. Instead, it is now recommended to put outside the door that the cat exited from some unlaundered clothing from the owner such as socks, shirt or shoes. The owner's scent will attract their cat. In the past, I had also left out my cat's litter box and my cat came home. However, looking back, I think it had more to do with correlation rather than causation. 😊

I'm so glad that you found your cat! Thanks for sharing your advice! Cat rescue experts now advise NOT to put the cat litter box outside.

Your cat is most likely very close to your home. Most indoor only cats are found within 2.5 houses of the house they escaped from. Indoor only cats will be hiding out during the day and typically come out at night when it's dark and quiet as they feel more safe. The best thing to do is to talk to your neighbors during the day to see if they have seen your cat. Do NOT rely on social media. The best way to find your cat is on foot by talking to people during the day and looking outside very LATE at night. See if your neighbors can leave their garages and sheds open for a few hours. Your cat may not come out right away once the doors are opened. This is because when cats are in survival mode, they typically do not act normal. Your cat may be scared to come out when others are around. You can also print mini flyers and attach them to your neighbors' doors if they are not home. You can use painter's tape so that it is easy for the homeowner to remove. Also, post on Nextdoor to alert neighbors. Please make sure that your cat has a way to get back into your house 24/7. You want to leave open a garage door (including the door that goes from the garage to the house) sliding glass door, or window that they exited from as well as some of your recently worn clothing outside of the entry way. ***Do NOT put your cat's litter box outside as it can attract predators.*** You will have the best chance to find your cat from 11 PM until 6 AM. Cats become most active at 3 AM. Use a flashlight and shake a bag of their favorite treats while CALMLY talking (in a normal voice) to your cat.
