If you can, leave a door or window cracked open, or garage in case kitty comes back. Cats may return on their own.
Put some items with your scent outside- you’re dirty sheets or unwashed, laundry.
Cannes cat food or tuna fish and water. Put a trail of cat treats to your door.
Place your kitty's bed, cat tree & litter box outside.
Indoor cats that get out are usually no further than 3 houses away. Watch video which shows his they hide.
Ask neighbors if you can look for your cat on their property such as garage is, sheds, or backyards .
Sometimes cats will try to come back inside very late when it's dark and quiet when they feel it's safe to come out. Cats generally stay close by, so look under bushes, cars, up trees.. Most indoor cats go into survival mode and hide. Most will not respond when in "survival mode." Call your cat's name softly, listen for a meow, and look for eyes with a flashlight. They still may not come out if they hear your voice softly since they are hiding and scared. Best time is the middle of the night/ super early morning. Ask your neighbors to check their garages.
File a lost pet report with the Humane Society. Check daily online for found stray cats photos on the San Diego Humane Society's website.
