Talk softly when calling late night and during the night to early morning when it quite out .. Might wait in between to see if you hear them meow nearby .... For indoor cats if there is any way you could leave your door garage door or window slightly ajar if possible they know where they got out and will often come back in on their own .. If you didn't see them get out check deep dresser drawers, kitchen and bathroom cabinets, under beds in box springs, behind the frig, the stove, behind or under the sofa, under or in the recliner the washer/dryer or inside if left open .. basement crawl space .. attic .. anywhere small or behind a cat can hide they will! If out cats will hide during the day and are more active late evening near dark to early morning , daybreak ... have a spot light to shine to see eyes in the dark .. they are usually close by and will often come back to the door .. or hide under bushes or decks to feel safe ! Also check crawl spaces under houses , garages, sheds of neighbors nearby ...No food out after dark it will attract area strays and wildlife to the area ... check culvert pipes .. storm drains .. up trees .. and colder weather they will get under car hoods for warmth and on tires also ...this can happen and they could be miles from home . Cats in a new home need at least 30 days to adjust to a new area and may and will travel to get back to their old home .. In some cases a set trap may be needed and monitored! A Trail cam or night vision goggles can help to monitor the areas outside! Post to Nextdoor Ask neighbors to check their Ring Doorbells... Beware of loose and roaming dogs in the area as they will chase and your cats! For automatic garage doors please place a 6x6 block or cinder block so that the door will not come all the way down and trap your pet as they can be injured! Check with area Shelters, Animal Control, and Vets offices also put flyers ... Am sure you have tried most all of these! Don't give up!!

Is this the missing cat? Howdy neighbors… We stumbled on this gentleman last night. Possibly he was trying to adopt us? He had been frequenting Center Point Pkwy, between Market Center Dr and Brandermill Parkway (Midlothian). He’d been interacting with people, they had been feeding and someone even put up a makeshift shelter. After sitting with him for 30 minutes, he let us pick him up and take him home. This was a very spur of the moment decision. Here’s the deal: we already have 3 cats, and we are going on vacation in less than 2 weeks. Setting aside whether or not he could get along with our existing family, there is no time for us to properly introduce him. He is extremely affectionate, but also prone to spontaneous hissing when he gets a little overstimulated. When he hears our curious kitties from behind the door, he does emit a low growl…sometimes while loving on us. He goes quiet when in the carrier and transporting him in and out of the room. Does not resist being picked up, put in the carrier - pretty pliable guy. Tends to hide in the room but is easily coaxed out for pets. Doesn’t seem to display any food aggression, at least not with people. Strangely doesn’t seem to care for Churrus 🤷🏼‍♂️ He appears to be neutered, no microchip. About 13 lbs. Overall seems to be in good shape. It looks like someone painted one nail on his left forepaw with pink lacquer?? We are treating him for fleas as a precaution, and we are taking him to a Vetco popup so get him the ‘outdoor cat’ package, pretty robust suite of tests and vax. All of that said, he can’t stay here. In some hypothetical reality, I wouldn’t rule out trying to keep him…but there isn’t time to work through that before we have to head out of town. Animal Control won’t take him, we were advised to keep, transfer to an accepting foster, or return to where we found him. I still have to submit a ‘found pet’ form for him, as required. Busy day. I have emailed Purring Hearts, RAL, Richardson Rescue and Richmond SPCA. Just this morning, so I may hear something back, but I believe these places are always bursting with cats. Putting this out there to the local community, in case there is any interest in him, or if you have personal connections to local Fosters. We may even consider adopting him from those Fosters…but we can’t commit to that. If we don’t find a satisfactory option in the next ~5-10 days (I’m making that timeline up right now), we will likely have to return him to his life of crime. He’ll be much healthier for his time with us, but that’s the extent of what we can do Edit: since we had to give him a name for the Vetco appt, we are calling him Apollo

Ask neighbors to check sheds, crawl spaces, garages, under decks, bushes, and anywhere else he could be trapped or hiding. Put up flyers, post on NextDoor, and notify and visit animal control. Best of luck!
