Indoor only or used to being outside? This difference matters when you’re trying to find them. Indoor only cats rarely will show themselves during the daytime & often will not respond to you calling them. They hide close by, then often return during the night to where they got out of your house, & they try to get back in. If your cat is strictly an indoor cat, then if possible, try leaving the exit point open after dark to see if they will walk back in on their own. Having a camera set up outside the exit point is very helpful to alert you if they’re approaching. If you can’t leave the exit point open after dark, then you still need to set a motion activated camera outside the exit point so you are alerted if your cat approaches during the night, which is what they typically do. If you get a sighting on the camera, then set a humane trap outside the exit point & have it ready at dark. Either way, do not go outside once you leave the exit point open or you’ve set a humane trap. Your cat probably won’t approach if you’re outside walking around. Secure any other pets in another room if you leave the exit point open. Place some of your worn clothes outside the exit point for scent. Do not put the litter box outside as it will attract other neighborhood cats who will prevent your cat from returning. If your cat is used to being outside, here’s a checklist for cats who are used to being outside: https://www.hatsalive.org/wp-content/uploads/2018/01/check-list-for-lost-outdoor-access-cat.pdf

Also message Erie Animal Network to post if you haven't already. Try checking outside after dark, during the night, and early morning. If possible, try putting wet cat food outside by your door when you can watch for her. Notify nearby vet or shelter in case she's found and taken to one for a chip scan
