Aimee Hennessy thank you Aimee. I appreciate this, this gives me hope! It’s actually my niece’s cat so I’m gonna let her know. I hope we have the same results you did.Read More
Monica Luevano-Hernandez my cat was gone 2 nights and we found him 50 feet up a neighbor's tree, he was too scared to meow. Looking at night with a flashlight might help if she's up high or down low! We will keep our paws crossed!Read More
🤞Tips for FINDING a lost cat. ->->->
Cats that are not used to being outside, OR get spooked by someone or something outside, will find the 1st place to hide and HUNKER DOWN in SILENCE. They tend to remain VERY NEAR. Cats that are scared will often NOT meow/ respond to calls even from their human (at first) ...though Kitty still needs to HEAR you and keep hearing you (until kitty THINKS it’s safe to come forward: that can take several days) - so do NOT stop calling out... Kitty is in survival mode and meowing would give away the hiding spot to predators. Outside is a strange scary place (for indoor cats) with wind & loud noises.
CALL for kitty consistently throughout the day and ESPECIALLY AT NIGHT from 10:30 PM until 6AM (when it’s quiet, dark and cats feel ‘safer’ to move out of hiding). VERY important as this is how most people find their lost cats. Set your alarm for every 1.5 hours...go out and call for kitty in your NORMAL, CALM voice and wait. Shake treats (if that is something kitty normally responds to). I can’t tell you how many kitties come out of hiding during these late hours…(or you can hear meows then if they are trapped in your next door neighbor’s garage, shed or backyard for example.)
Never put out litter box as it may attract other territorial cats or wildlife.
