My vet told me that if ever my 2 boys got out, I should put articles of family clothing outside. Cats have a terrific sense of smell and if they smell something familiar, they will come home. He also told me that cats will not just run like a dog might, they will more than likely find a safe, secure hiding place usually close to home because they're scared. If you try this, I hope he'll come home sooner than later. I've also been told to be sure to check storm drains because they have a tendency to go there too. ***per Stanley Animal Control, If you put their litter box outside, a cat can smell their own litter box up to a mile away and come home. On a personal note, I'd be leery of putting food out now because the bobcats and coyotes seem to be a big presence again in the neighborhoods. I'd stick with clothing vs the food.
