Put out some things that smells like their favorite or familiar people. Do not use a litter box as this may be a beacon to predators as much as the kitty. Don't forget to change out the articles of things so the scent is refreshed. Ask your immediate neighbors and surrounding streets by 5 to 10 miles out to keep an eye out in garages, sheds, crawlspaces, porches, basements, and if possible under any places. Kitties can fit into some very small areas

The best thing to do is to talk to your neighbors during the day to see if they have seen your cat. Do NOT rely on social media. The best way to find your cat is on foot by talking to people during the day and looking outside very LATE at night. See if your neighbors can leave their garages and sheds open for a few hours. Your cat may not come out right away once the doors are opened. This is because when cats are in survival mode, they typically do not act normal. Your cat may be scared to come out when others are around. You can also print mini flyers and attach them to your neighbors' doors if they are not home. You can use painter's tape so that it is easy for the homeowner to remove. Also, post on Nextdoor to alert neighbors. Please make sure that your cat has a way to get back into your house 24/7. You want to leave open a garage door (including the door that goes from the garage to the house) sliding glass door, or window that they exited from as well as some of your recently worn clothing outside of the entry way. ***Do NOT put your cat's litter box outside as it can attract predators.*** You will have the best chance to find your cat from 11 PM until 6 AM. Cats become most active at 3 AM. Use a flashlight and shake a bag of their favorite treats while CALMLY talking (in a normal voice) to your cat.

Beautiful Cat. If chipped, be sure to inform the chip company that kitty is lost!...hope these suggestions help:. Many lost cats have been found using the suggestions from both these websites. Please take the time to read through the sites, it might bring you your kitty! Please visit the website of: communitycatcoalitionwa.org....this is a professional rescue site that offers valuable information about finding lost cats. Go to the main menu for the drop down box and open 2 different tabs: Finding Lost Cats and Happy Endings for this info.this www.missinganimalresponse.com....this also is a professional rescue site that offers valuable information about finding lost cats. Again, go to the main menu for appropriate tabs to open... Be sure to open and read Lost Cat Behavior as this has unusual data about lost cat behavior that you wouldn't guess and may assist your search.....especially for indoor only cats! 💙Additionally, file a Lost Cat report with your local county humane society ( often done online) as found cats can be surrendered there, reported as found there or chip checked there!💙 in Thurston County its petcolovelost.org ❤And check your local county humane society for their books of " found" or " reported seen" cats that are either at the shelter or at the finders' home. Many local shelters are full and ask the finders to hold the found cats. There will be photos and contact information!❤ Another site to file you cat as lost is phshelter.com....and ....lostmykitty.com....which cross references shelters' surrendered, found cats! Best wishes😿💖 PS...most indoor only cats are pretty scared of being outside and can be probably pretty close by! Go out at night with a flashlight and look under the house, deck, cars, shrubs and bushes, in outbuildings, up in trees and in all small crawlspaces. Her eyes will shine in the dark! During the day, just walk around the property and converse with her like you're talking to a baby ( in that baby talk voice)....doesn't matter what you say....just talk.....scaredy cats often don't respond to their names but will respond to your voice in talk! Also post on your local NEXTDOOR APP. page and local PAWBOOST APP. page which gets the most lost and found post views! PS...50% of folks don't use social media! Go to your neighborhood, knock on doors, leave your name and number and show photos! Keep checking the shelters every other day. Surrenders are usually held for 3 days before being put up for adoption. Another tip: make Lost Cat posters,with photo, put them onto bright colored card stock ( dollar store) with a contact#, put into clear plastic bags or tape clear plastic or Saran Wrap to it and staple to telephone polls near your areas. Best wishes in finding your kitty.😔 Also : petFBI.org PS....Beware of posts suggesting "business " that offer pet finding/tracking services originating from Instagram, Twitter or unnamed phone numbers. They are well known scams and will take your money and mine your personal data including banking/credit cards. 3Retrievers.com is one of the only legit pet finder organizations that I'm aware is real.
