Message from Owner

We are desperately looking for our cat, Charles. He is our beloved 2½-year-old gray tabby. He was spooked with it being his first time in our RV and ran away sometime between 2-4am the morning of August 8th. We are here temporary due to being in the middle of moving cross country in the next couple of weeks. Please let us know if you all have seen him or know what area he might be. He is friendly but is a fast runner. Any help is appreciated.

I am so sorry. The hints about leaving clothing with your scent on them and putting the litter box and food bowl outside work for many owners. PRAYING & SHARING

Missing Cats Hopefully this might help you find your cat~ Know that lost cats are frightened and skittish and will usually hide during daylight hours. Make sure to search the inside of your house throughly. They can hide in unlikely places. Under your bed frames has been a favorite hiding place. Try shaking their cat dish or treat bag. At night they will start looking for home and usually move very slowly exploring areas and looking for familiar sounds or sights. Take a flashlight at night and look under bushes, cars, and in gutters. They tend to move in circles and don’t tend to move quickly or run from home. Another possibility is that they may be near home close to someone’s door, hoping to get inside. Someone’s garage perhaps. Some people have had luck leaving their door cracked open a little, same goes for your garage door. Always personally check your nearest shelter and file a report. Focus your search during times when your neighborhood is quieter. Early mornings (dawn & dusk). Cats will tend to go to more quiet places than busy noisy places, so if there are parks, or wooded lawns, check there. Always take a flashlight even in the daylight. Check under bushes, porches, window wells, up trees, storm drains, UNDER CARS etc. Important!!--- Remember she is probably not very far from home, she is frightened, she is getting more hungry and thirsty as the days go on and will be more motivated to overcome her fear and answer you. Set out stinky food, such as tuna or sardines. If heated every few hours it will enhance the aroma. After a few days setting a baited trap near your house is a good idea. Stay determined, stay hopeful and stay persistent. Some have had luck taking their favorite treats and shaking the can or bag. **Put a piece of clothing outside that has your scent on it (dirty) or a piece of bedding such as a blanket that has its fur on it. *Do not put its litter box outside. It could possibly attract predators. Maybe a pillow case that you have slept on recently. Just recently someone had set a trail of cat nip out, it helped get her cat. DON’T GIVE UP! Pass out flyers to everyone in the area including vet offices. Not everyone is on Facebook. Hang large neon colorful posters with picture and large contact information which can see from a car. Make sure you visit your local shelter to see if anyone has turned it in. Angie Yewell

Put some clothes or blankets with your scent on them outside...also dirty litterbox. Look up in trees. Search outside at night with bright flashlights and call for him. His eyes will glow when the light is on them. Put some lost cat signs in the area. Hope you find your kitty soon 🙏
