This article should also help you 🐾 https://www.dailypaws.com/cats-kittens/cat-safety-tips/how-to-find-a-lost-cat Here is additional info I share with kitty owners who have lost a cat. If he isn’t in someone’s home, he could have been taken to the local shelter, although most people just let cats be, and don’t. Let your local shelter know he is missing. When you go looking for him, you might want to do it just before dusk. Be aware of any nearby coyotes and if there are any, don’t look for him at that time. Try to call him in a quiet voice (and try to sound cheery) while using the same voice tone that you call for him in your home. (So he doesn’t think he’s in trouble.) You literally need to start in your yard & back yard, under bushes, sheds, etc. Be on the lookout for poisonous snakes. Look up too, as he could be in a tree. He probably isn’t that far away. Also, Here are some other suggestions 🐾 ♦️Check your local PawBoost (you can do this on FB,) and look to see if your kitty is posted as FOUND. If not, then post a MISSING post. There is no cost for basic but do include your phone number where it asks for it. NOT in the body of your post. Keep checking back often, and look at new Found cats posted. ♦️I hope 🙏 your kitty is microchipped. If so, make sure his registration info is up to date. ♦️ Alert your area animal shelters, starting with one closest to you. Many of them allow you to do an online LOST PET report and then you’ll be in their database. Check the found databases there, daily. Go, in person if you can. Notify your veterinarian. ♦️Post in other local Facebook Lost & Found pet forums, as well as 24PetConnect, etc. Post on NextDoor, and check CraigsList, or other sales media where a finder may try to “re-home” your pet. ♦️Make MISSING posters & flyers. You can get a free flyer template from PawBoost. Use 8 x 10 neon paper for flyers. Also, use page protectors. For larger signs, use large neon poster board and neon markers too. Most pets are found within a mile of their home, especially cats. Starting from home, walk your neighborhood (not alone!) and speak to neighbors and hand out flyers. Put flyers in empty mailboxes or on front doors. Put up flyers on street corners while you walk the neighborhood up on telephone poles, about 5 ft high. Staple on wood; tape on metal. Share flyers with local stores, veterinarians, pet stores; anywhere you can to let people know about your missing kitty. ♦️You are NOT required to give anybody money to return your pet. The law requires that a finder make “reasonable efforts” to find a pet owner and return a pet. PLEASE watch out for sc@mmers. PawBoost has a page of info on this on their FaceBook pages🐾
