Sharing💕 Please set up a live trap (nearest where your cat escaped the home) baited with Sardines in water...very smelly so scent will carry far and hopefully your cat will follow it back home and into the trap. Make sure trap is monitored by someone! Also go out with a flash light when the sun sets...look under cars, decks, porches, bushes, in sheds/garages, beneath hanging branches and up trees (in case cat was chased). Post on Next Door App, and other Facebook community pages…the more eye keeping a look out the better! Give flyers to local businesses, groomers, pet stores, vet clinics, and mail carriers since they are in the area daily and may see your cat. Displaced indoor cats tend to hunker down nearby where they exited the home. They only move farther away to search for food or get spooked. Hand out flyers to at least 7 houses in each direction, including houses the next streets over (backyard neighbors). Find out who feeds the community cats in your neighborhood/community because if your cat found that person’s feeding area he will be less likely to keep wandering because it is a known food source. At night, when it’s quiet, sit outside close to where the cat escaped and read a book/magazine out loud, your cat may hear your familiar voice and follow it back home. Don’t get discouraged, keep looking!!!! Hope your cat is found safe and sound soon💕 Also like to share this information regarding litter boxes: https://www.missinganimalresponse.com/lost-pet-behaviors/kitty-litter-myth/

You’re probably getting a lot of advice, but I hope some or all of these tips help you bring your baby home quickly. Most importantly, don’t just wait for your cat to show up, even if they’ve escaped before and come home on their own. Be very active in your efforts: put up flyers, knock on neighbors’ doors, and go out at night with a flashlight to search. Leave food close to the entrance of your house or apartment to encourage your cat to stay nearby rather than wandering farther away looking for resources. If you’re unsure whether your cat is still close by, I highly recommend setting up an outdoor camera and pointing it toward the food. It’s a great way to find out if your cat is coming back when no one is around. It doesn’t have to be an expensive Ring camera or require a subscription. I have an indoor/outdoor Wyze camera that I bought on Amazon for less than $40. I did have to purchase an outdoor power cable separately, but it was inexpensive. I have the camera set to alert me whenever it detects movement, so a notification immediately pops up on my phone. If it’s safe and possible, leave a door or window to the house, apartment, or garage cracked open. Cats will sometimes quietly wander back up and simply walk inside, especially when things are calm and quiet. I really hope your baby is home safe very soon. ❤️

Do NOT put out the litter box. Putting the litter box outside is NOT recommended. ONLY put out unwashed items of cat and owners like clothing and bedding, things that smell like home. Cats instinctively bury their waste to keep predators away. By putting the litter box out you are attracting predators and aggressive strays keeping your cat hiding and possibly running further away from the area. I told this to one woman who confirmed that she saw stray cats using Her cat’s litter box claiming it as theirs and marking territory. It made her cat leave the area. Luckily someone saw her cat blocks away at an abandoned house and there were NEON Posters at intersections with info that I put up for owner. Coyote hunters actually put out used cat litter to lure in coyotes. Never give up cats have been found months and even years later but you have to be proactive 🙏🏻❤️

Be Proactive and Aggressive in your search. Act Fast. Sometimes people wait, mistakenly thinking cat will just come home on their own. Don’t give up. Cats usually stay within a 5 House Radius. Indoor cats don’t usually go far. They get scared and try to be quiet. They could be hunkering down in nearby bushes, under decks/porches, crawlspaces etc. Go out before dusk, dawn and again in the quiet middle of the night hours. Loudly crack open a can of cat food. Look in garages/sheds, rafters, trees and drainage pipes in ditches. Look in the same places you already did again and again because cats will move to different nearby places if spooked. I’ve had people say they found their cat in a place they looked at a few times. Place a humane trap with stinky food in it on your property or ask neighbors if you can put one on theirs. If you have a dog, use their strong sense of smell taking them for a walk around the neighborhood and your home. Alert neighbors and ask to look on their property and garages/sheds, under sheds too if obvious holes dug by animals. Go out in the quiet of night with a High Lumens Tactical LED flashlight looking for glowing eyes. Sit out in the quiet of night and read a book out loud in a calm and soothing voice. Shake noisy cat toy or treats. Keep garage slightly open with cats bed/blanket and articles of owners unwashed items. Also check thoroughly indoors, dresser drawers, linen closets, totes, under couches lining, cupboards, basement etc.. Large Neon posters at intersections with limited writing so passing vehicles can read quickly otherwise how would someone who isn’t on social media and might have seen or taken in your cat know some is looking. Physically go to shelters and leave info every couple days. Leave info at local veterinarian offices. Also post on Facebook pages, For The Love Of Louie Michigan Lost Pet Lookers & Local Facebook groups. Also post on your local Nextdoor app and the Pawboost app, they will send out email alerts to members and will also post on local Facebook Lost and Found Pets groups. Good Luck. Get home safe and Sound Rylie 🙏🏻❤️
