I'm so sorry about your baby.🥺💔 Most cats stay close to home so it is critical to stay as proactive, and persistent, as possible. ●Crack your garage door or leave a porch door open so it can get inside. Cats return at night when you're sleeping so you miss them. This also ensures if your cat was chased away, it can sneak back inside when it can. ●Check everywhere outside even in drain pipes and drains, in logs, under bushes and cars, up in trees and anywhere it's collar could get hung. ●Use a flashlight after dark as it will make your cat's eyes glow. ●Check under your house and your neighbor's houses, in sheds, garages, basements, etc. ●Indoor-only or new to the area lost cats tend to not recognize their owners outside because it is a different environment and they are scared. Sit outside every single day especially in the morning and at dusk/night so your cat can get used to you being there. ●Put food in a plastic container with a lid and periodically shake it and call your cat's name. ●Print flyers for neighbors and businesses in the area. ●Put posters in public areas, like on street signs and in your front yard, and offer some type of reward, if you can. ●Put the reward amount on the flyers and posters. A reward will incite people to intentionally be on the lookout for your cat or to return it to you. ●Work with a cat rescue to immediately set a cat trap or you can purchase one at Tractor Supply, Home Depot or on Amazon and set it yourself. You will need to monitor the trap(s) ●Post on the Ring app, on Nextdoor, and Pawboost and visit pet rescues/shelters in person regularly to see if someone has found your cat and has taken it to one. Give them a flyer and report your cat as missing. ●Consistently visit rescues and shelters. They only hold a cat 3 to 5 days before putting it up for adoption. Even if the cat has a microchip, the chip can float and be missed by the scanner. ●Set notification alerts for the Facebook lost and found pets groups in case someone has found your cat.

Great news!! If he isn’t microchipped, PAWS does it at no charge for Floyd Co. residents on M/F 11:30-4:00…

Is Scuttle an indoor cat? *Indoor cats don't usually go far. Take a flashlight and look anywhere he could hide - under houses, porches, steps, behind shrubbery and any OUTBUILDINGS/SHEDS he could have gotten closed up in. The flashlight will reflect his eyes. *Put some recently worn clothing outside the door, something with your scent on it, like dirty socks. Also, something with his scent on it, like a blanket or bed. *Look UP trees in case something chased him. *Check with neighbors, especially those who have cats. Also with any vets in the area, in case he was brought in with an injury or to be scanned for a chip. *Go out early mornings and late evenings when it's quiet to call and LISTEN for him. If he's scared and hiding, he may not respond immediately to being called, but he may 'answer' you *BE SURE TO CHECK YOUR VEHICLES! Cats will seek out the warmth of vehicle engines. Look under the hood and in the wheel wells *Put out BRIGHTLY COLORED signs in the area with his picture and your contact info on them. Not everyone does social media and the signs will be visible to kids, neighbors and delivery people. *Look near sources of water *Check all other Lost/Found sites and Nextdoor. Some people will post on one and not others. *Check any drain pipes, anything he could have fallen into. *Keep a porch or garage door slightly open so he can get in, and check any security cameras you might have to see if he's showing up at night or when you're not home. *Be sure to check at Bartow County Animal Control, IN PERSON and often. They have a short hold time. Don't depend on phone calls. I hope you find him soon!
