Might be loved and lost: Please door knock. If no success finding owner (with proof of ownership), please distribute found posters (& leaflets?), as not everyone on Facebook. Please leave strong smelling food (eg tinned Whiskas cat food, meat and fish flavour, or hot BBQ chicken) out from dusk, in a safe, discrete, level location (eg behind bushes, not visible from street view). Preferably every evening until owner found. If someone claims, please request proof of ownership (eg, photos of cat and owner together not AI generated, microchip papers, or unique, unobvious distinguishing features). Also, ID, which matches physical address. For safety reasons (to protect from cat hating psychopaths) 😞 ... Call a reputable rescue group for a microchip scan (and / or if required, to catch with a cat trap). If no rescue group is available, hire a humane cat trap (not a possum trap) from Kennards Hire. Ask to be shown, or google, how to use. When cat caught, cover trap in a towel, to help it feel safe. Last resort (as stressful for cat, could escape, end up at pound, or worse), take to vet (in a very secure cat carrier, or in cat trap) for a microchip scan and health check. If owner located, please explain that most cats need to be locked in for 3+ weeks to bond to a new (or old) home, otherwise sooner or later might try to head back to previous territory and become hopelessly lost ... Also, most cats are escape artists until they are bonded to new homes (eg, breaking through mosquito netting and forcing sliding doors / windows open. Best use a piece of dowell in door / window tracts to prevent opening more than 2 cm). To be extra vigilant! Thanks for caring 🙏
