Hey, I just saw your post on PawBoost. I haven’t spotted your cat, but I wanted to share a few tips because I lost my cat before too. Try leaving food and water near the area where your cat was last seen, especially wet food they recognize. You can also leave something familiar that smells like home, like their blanket, bed, or a piece of clothing. Cats often stay much closer than people think when they’re scared. When I lost my cat, she was missing for two weeks and ended up being within about 10 feet of where she got lost. Nighttime or very early morning is usually the best time to look because it’s quieter. Check bushes, porches, garages, under decks, and small hiding spots nearby. Also, don’t get discouraged if your cat doesn’t come out when you call. They may recognize your voice but still be too scared to move. Keep checking every day and don’t give up. I really hope you find them soon.

Put tuna or sardines and shoes with your scent on the porch or backyard right away also go out late at night and call quietly and shake a bag of treats. Fingers crossed. Probably close by and scared Make sure to report missing to area shelters. Post flyers all around the neighborhood. Ask neighbors to check their yards, garages, under decks and bushes. Prayers 🙏 you find your cat

Your Missing Cat will try to re-enter the home when the neighborhood is quiet. If it all possible, leave the door ajar that the kitty escaped from and secure other companion animals to a separate room of the home. He/she will try to re-enter when the neighborhood is quiet in the evening and overnight hours. Make sure you physically check underneath and in the engine compartment of your vehicles prior to starting in the morning. Litter box WILL attract community cats and predators, potentially pushing your lost cat out of the area. Clothing/bedding that smell like him/her and his/her family outside the home immediately. If you have a garage, leave the door open enough for him/her to get in. If you live in a mobile home community look under yours and your neighbors homes. Check around your home: bushes, up in trees, deck, porch etc. If their head fits their body will too! Door knock neighbors and ask them to check outbuildings, sheds, garages and ring cam footage. Go out periodically through out the night shaking his/her treats or opening a can of wet food and call to him/her. Renting/borrowing/buying a live trap and setting within the first 24 hours your cat has been missing is a good idea. Live traps need to be monitored frequently. Be prepared to release wildlife. Posting flyers in your neighborhood as well as getting a flyer to rescues, shelters and animal control services is very essential to the recovery of your lost pet.
