TIPS TO HELP FIND LOST PET:✅Place his/her bedding, your shoes, a piece of your unwashed clothing (such as a sweatshirt, blanket, pillowcases) and food/water outside *if there is coyotes in the area bring the food in at night*.🚫Do not put litter box outside. Putting the litter box outside can attract predators and other cats which might keep your cat from returning home🚫*Putting out the other items listed above, are scents only your cat will recognize* ‼️ They might be nearby and can’t figure out how to get inside ***IF you have a garage or door/sliding door that can be left open*** Leave the garage/ or door cracked for them and place the shoes, bedding, jand unwashed clothing in the garage‼️ ✅Walk around the area calling them calmly early morning and late evening when it’s quiet & shake a bag of treats or a squeaky toy, something they would recognize. ✅If he/she is microchipped contact the microchip company to report him/her lost and make sure your contact info is up to date. ✅Hang flyers (use a bright color board or paper) with picture in your neighborhood, surrounding areas, local shopping centers, businesses, vet's offices, groomers, etc. within a five mile radius from your home. ✅Go door to door with the flyers as well and try to speak with people when handing out flyers. ✅Make a sign with his/her picture and put it in your front yard stating he/she is missing. ✅File a lost report with the shelters in your area and surrounding area shelters ✅Check shelters in person, daily if possible. Ask to see the animals in isolation too. ✅Check shelter websites daily (as it is updated hourly) ✅Check shelter found reports for found postings but not at the shelter. ✅Take a flyer to the shelters. ✅File online with petharbor, pawboost ✅Post on area lost and found pet and community Facebook pages, area shelter Facebook pages, newspapers, nextdoor and Craigslist under "pets" and "Lost and Found". Cats usually are close to home. Hang clothes with your scent out. Ask your neighbors if they would look in their yard or garage or storage sheds to see if he is there or check their Ring camera to see if he was spotted on camera. Make sure you post fliers with your contact information on it so if he is spotted they can call you and tell his location. Keep an access point open for him to slip back in your home. Look in bushes or hiding spots around your home as if he is scared he will make himself safe by finding a hiding spot. Sometimes the best time to find your cat is when the noise level is low - after hours - or early morning hours. Take a flashlight and shine and look for the eyes under cars up trees in bushes. Good luck!

Keep looking now when less noise out and less traffic. Look closer to home and work your way out. Look under and behind everything. Cars, bushes, hedges, ac units, dumpsters. Hopefully he's microchipped and has I'd tags on. Make sure that the contact information is current with the microchip company. Look in garage and closets. Be careful when you get him. Too many predators out there. Go you local shelters. They only hold 2 to 3 days. 😥

Keep looking now late into evening and early morning when less traffic and less people. Put out clothes and shoes with your scent and their food and water. ( watch for others). Open garage a little if safe in Case they return. Start looking closer to home and work your way out. Look under and behind everything. Cars, bushes, hedges. Behind AC units. Look between homes and on porches. Look over in open garages. Alert neighbors. Ask them to look at video surveillance. When looking take their favorite bell toy and they will recognize sound. Look up in trees and on roof tops. Go to local shelters especially shelters. LOOK here every day 24petconnect.com Post a flyer with her picture and your contact information on every neighbor's door step. Hopefully someone is keeping him safe and will call you. 🙏
