Go out with a flashlight and call for her. Look under decks, in backyards that may be locked, in sheds, and under porches. Also look up trees, she may feel safer there. Go out tonight, especially because it is snowing, and bring some treats and something to secure her with if you do see her. Bring a treat jar and call softly and if you see her crouch/sit on the ground because she would be more likely to come to you if you are not standing. Don't chase her if you see her, she is probably afraid and will run even though she knows you. Put flyers up all over the place including in front of your house and on your car. Put out some stinky food near your house and (if you can) leave a door to your house open just enough so she could slip through and get inside. If you have a garage, leave the door open about 6 inches so it can at least have shelter and stay inside. Check with neighbors to ask if they have seen her. Bring a photo with her name, your name and phone number on it to BOTH the Humane Association AND High Country Humane in case someone brought her in and they will identify her as yours. Go there and check for yourself also, they will hold her for 72 hours (by AZ law) but then she can be placed up for adoption. Don't give up hope, she knows you need her home, and she feels your energy. Sending positive energy to both of you.
