Put a piece of your clothing and/or your cat's bed and toys outside. Cats can smell their scent from long distances and find their way home using their noses. Also, put up flyers at all major intersections near you, local grocery stores, veterinary clinics and Starbucks. Post Lost Cat notices on PawBoost.com, 24PetConnect.com, Colorado Lost or Found Pets (a Facebook page), Nextdoor and Craigslist. If your cat has been missing for more than five days, it may have been taken to a shelter. After five days, the shelter may put your cat up for adoption via Petfinder.com, so be sure to check that site as well. Talk to your neighbors and ask them to be on the lookout for your kitty. And don't forget to call the animal shelter nearest you every day. Cats typically don’t stray far and often are hiding out in bushes or under a porch nearby. The best time to look for your lost kitty is after dark—around midnight or later when they feel comfortable coming out of hiding. Good luck!
