First put out a big bowl of water. Then, did you try the kitty litter trick? Take some litter from their box and sprinkle outside leading to your door then call them constantly especially at dawn and dusk and when it's quiet. Kitty will follow its scent and your voice home. It's no doubt scared and hiding. You can also try a stinky can of sardines! Or if kitty is a cuddler, try putting an article of your clothing by your door.
Also check area garages, under car hoods, shelters, Nextdoor and Pawboost for found kitties in and near your zip. Don’t give up. And post flyers around your neighborhood.
Good luck!Read More
Indoor cats usually stay in a 3 to 5 house radius of home
* Will often hide all day and only come out late at night
* Most will come home between 2 and 4 am
* Leave the door or window they escaped from open if possible. If not, leave another door open if you can.
* If you can't leave a door open, get up throughout the night and check outside.
* Around 10 pm set out smelly food like rotisserie chicken
* At night, walk the area and call softly. Listen carefully. Use a flashlight to catch eyeshine.
* You can put the cat's blanket out or your worn clothing, or just make some lines or little piles of your cat’s dirty litter to help guide them back home.
Ask your neighbors with garages/sheds or outdoor bat access to check as cats can be accidentally locked in and neighbors may go away on vacation without realizing a cat is in their bat or garage/shed.
Also very important to look at the trees close by cats often get stuck high up in trees after being startled or chased.
