most of the advice you're going to get is going to mostly be applicable to indoor cats that get out. scent stations and all of that work for a cat that's LOST. A cat that is allowed outside and doesn't come home, isn't not coming home because he's lost. He's not coming home because he can't. Maybe he's stuck in someone's garage. Maybe he got into someone's car and went for an adventure. Maybe he got hit by a car and he's injured somewhere. Or maybe a coyote made off with him. there are still some things here you can do: https://www.jelliclecatsrescuefoundation.com/lost-kitty-advice most importantly, make sure you do a lost pet alert on the microchip, and please please please make sure that the microchip has your current information; a microchip is useless without the contact info being updated. Also flyers. do 4 up on a sheet and leave them with all of your neighbors and even your delivery and postal teams. uber eats amd grubhub drivers. local vets offices. If you find him, keep him inside

Regina Tran and if a coyotes chasing them, I'm pretty sure they'll go more than three houses Maybe I'm just a little hypersensitive from having to remove a half of a cat from my neighbor's driveway the other day It was the front half, the part that presumably would've had a microchip. I scanned it, it didn't have one. he was likely a community cat. Which is even worse because there was nobody to keep him safely in the house.

Suzanne Pijloo I appreciate your concern, and thank you for trying to make an already worried owner feel more horrible. I've lived in my neighborhood all my life and never saw a coyote come to my area. My cat also usually doesn't travel more than 3 houses down alone, and spends most of his time indoors anyway. I dote on every one of my animals and would never intentionally put them into harm's way.

I can’t believe you were completely unaware that you are in a coyote infested community? . I pray you find your kitty, but stop letting your kitties outside.

If s/he is not accustomed to being outside, s/he is probably close to home. Most indoor only cats don't go more than about a 5 to 6 house radius from where they got out. S/he is probably hunkered down, hiding somewhere close by. Search low and high, go search under cars, in the bushes, at night with a flashlight and look for her/his eyes. Ask your neighbors to look in their garages and sheds. Go out very late at night or very very early morning, stand in one place near home and call her/his name in a calm voice. If you have another pet such as a dog or cat that is friends with the missing cat, bring it along with you and see if they smell or call the missing cat. Be sure to have the dog on a leash. Be sure to have the cat in a carrier. Bring an extra carrier with you. Don't put out the litter box, it will draw predators. You can create a scent station - put out her/his favorite bed, blanket, toy, or your worn clothing. If it is safe to do so, you can also try securing your other pets and leaving a door open a few inches and see if your cat comes back in. If you have confirmed sightings but the cat is skittish, you can rent a humane trap, set & bait it with her/his favorite food and put your used bed sheets over it. NEVER LEAVE THE TRAP UNATTENDED. Be sure to check it every every 30 minutes or so. Post everywhere you can (Pawboost, Lostmykitty, Lost & Found Pets pages for your city & county, Nextdoor, the Buzz page for your city, etc.) and be sure to put up flyers in the neighborhood, and in everyones' mailboxes or under door mats, in a several block radius. Not everyone is on social media. Be sure to include the cross streets, City, time and date the cat went missing on all flyers and posts. This is critical information! People can check their cameras. People may recall seeing the cat in the area around that time/date. Also check your local animal shelters to see if s/he was found and turned in as a stray. Many of them have websites with photos of the cats. If they have a deceased pets page, check there too. There won't be photos. The color, & approximate age will be listed, as well as city & nearest cross streets. Don't give up. A neighbor's cat escaped 30 minutes after he was brought home after being adopted. They did many of these actions, and a few people reported seeing the cat, but when they went to look, no sign of the cat. The cat was found exactly 3 months later, across the street, 5 doors down. He came into the neighbor's garage and she had kept the flyer, so she was able to call my neighbor and the kitty got home safely. Also check your house very thoroughly. If cats aren't feeling well, they often hide. Check every closet, cupboard, drawer, washer, dryer, piece of furniture a cat could crawl into, even spaces that seem unlikely. My friend's cat went missing. She found her 3 days later hiding in a kitchen cupboard behind some pots & pans. I hope you find her/him safe and sound really soon!!
