A friendly big cat that got outside. He is probably very scared. I rescue cats and he is one of the best!

I copy and paste my tips so I realize some of this might not apply. If you have a garage crack it enough so he can get in and out. Put out some food and water so he doesn’t go searching for it. Heated bowls if it’s getting cold. You can try shaking a bag of food or snapping a tab on a can, if he’s hungry enough he may come running. If you’re searching at night make sure you have a good flashlight. The light will make his eyes glow. Keep in mind cats like to stay in the shadows so they will walk close to or hug against buildings, homes, garages, bush lines etc to avoid being seen. If he’s never been out before he won’t go far. You can try putting out cat nip and a bell toy. If he finds it you may just hear the bell. Make sure to let your neighbors know and pass out flyers with all the information they need to get in touch with you including his picture. He’ll know your voice compared to others so keep that in mind as well. You should also get a trap and see if you can catch him that way. Some of the rescue shelters will loan them out. If you’re worried about the cold, you can build a cat shelter out of a tote or foam cooler. Just make sure you fill the shelter with straw not hay. Hay holds moisture. Also, ask your neighbors to check their garages and sheds to make sure he didn’t get stuck in there by mistake. I hope this helps and he comes home soon. cats are most active at dawn and dusk. 9pm or so and around 5:30am. Also, someone in another post recommended a cat chum line. You can look it up on google. As there is more to it, But here’s a bit of it. "Cat chum line" likely refers to a method used to attract cats, particularly lost or stray cats, using a scent trail or line of chum. This involves creating a path of strong-smelling substances like tuna, sardines, or even cat litter, leading back to a trap or a familiar area. The goal is to guide the cat back to safety or a place where it can be captured and returned home.

If chipped contact your microchip company and make sure your information is updated and file a lost cat report there If all else fails put out a HUMANE trap then with wet food or tuna and cover with a towel to keep calm and warm if caught and check it out every 2hours and don't leave overnight unattended You can face the entrance of the trap towards a window or door to keep a better eye on it Prayers sent Some people suggest leaving a door open alittle bit may come home on there own Put something with scent there also Bedding your unwashed clothing Litter box anything that has your cats scent Cats are night creatures May try to come home early morning while dark and try to get back inside This works well Also Go outside early morning while dark and sit down on the ground so she can see your face not feet and calmly call name If likes treats shake bag and listen for meowing could be stuck in a garage or shed or under porches

get a live trap, they are fairly cheap, my Jane wanted to come back but was too overwhelmed and scared, she had made a home under a backyard shed across the street. Eventually she was found eating a cheeseburger in the trap on my front porch. Tuna in oil also makes a lot of scent. I believe in Jane's case, the live trap was her only chance. Best of luck and a swift resolve for you I hope

I recommend food. All cats that wonder off , will eventually look for food. We use cooked chicken pieces. The smell brings the cat home. Also open a side or back door and set a plate of chicken pieces there with cat nip. If you sitting outside, keep the treats handy
