It’s absolutely Vital if you haven’t already to do this ASAP! Especially with the hot weather now! Also check behind fences, outhouses, in bushes etc in case she is injured or become unwell and are hiding somewhere!! Most cats are found by doing this!!

You’ve probably done lots of the following but just Hoping to help you find your gorgeous cat ❤️ I copied and paste from a lady’s great advice from a post on here.. Don’t give up and really hope your gorgeous cat is reunited with you very soon 🙏 ❤️ FAMILIAR smells leave outside used cat litter sprinkled around the garden, never a litter tray or other cats will use it and stop your cat coming home Trainers,, Insoles,, Slippers,Socks, Stinky cat blanket not on the ground maybe pegged on line away from other cats CONSIDER WHY THEY ARE MISSING A CAT USED TO GOING OUTSIDE: something has happened to interrupt the cat’s behaviour of coming home. Cats are territorial and do not just run away from home. Something will have spooked the cat and it has bolted out of its familiar territory and ended up in a garden it has never been in before. Cats just hide mostly when scared. They don’t just wander around. 1. A SOUND - Cats have extremely acute hearing and are naturally terrified of loud noises such as thunder, a car horn, a dog barking, a refuse lorry coming down the road emptying bins. The younger the cat the more easily they are scared by noises and bolt. 2. A LOCAL BOLD and DOMINANT CAT – will size up to a more timid cat to exert control over the territory. 4. An UN-NEUTERED MALE CAT will scare off all local cats in his endless searching over miles seeking a female. His instinct is to dominate in all territories and intimidate and fight with all local cats. INDOOR ONLY cat who has escaped is very different, it will be MUCH CLOSER to home in the first hiding space it can find. It will be terrified finding itself suddenly outside. It will hide immediately very nearby but too panicked to respond to being called. A cat NEW TO AN AREA through moving house or being re-homed will also find being outside frightening and will hide away • The majority of cats 75% were found within 500 metres (1/3 of a mile) of their home (or escape point). Indoor only cats were closest to home often up to 10 houses distance. INDOOR CATS will stay very close by hiding it is important that they have access to be able to get back in the house or a shed with bedding and food all on this list also apply CONTACT Vets within 20 mile radius, if microchipped advise company they may supply you with free posters *check details are up to date* KNOCK ON DOORS 200M radius of home ask if you can do the search of garden and outbuildings and garage look in/under behind everything lots of cats are trapped and will not come out for strangers Search Google maps where in 200m area can a cat hide or visit buildings warehouses graveyards, businesses shops building sites play areas search and poster these areas A lot of cats are eventually found within 2/3 streets away from home CHECK in Gardens/under Decking/Outbuildings under Cars Hedges up Trees Between Houses Sheds etc Cats can get wedged there and frightened cats do not make a sound Check if any neighbours have Ring or CCTV Check if any Vacant properties have they managed to get shut in Check if you or neighbours have had any deliveries has cat got into van? SEARCH late at night Early morning proven best time 3-4am it is a time of night cats feel safe and will hear you, only call and shake treats when walking back towards home so as to not drive further away Take a torch to shine on you and not your cat take something familiar to shake, biscuits, toy with a bell SIT in your garden in the early hours when quiet and open a tin of something smelly sardines, tuna put house light on sit and call softly and wait they may hear you and smell food ANY cats missing for more than 6 days will be in a state of panic ALSO He/she may be trapped …when posting flyers through doors ask people To really search in sheds, garages, summerhouses etc and behind crates, pallets, boxes, anything stashed against the walls. WARN them a frightened cat may keep still and quiet and not dash out when the door is opened ARE there clumps of brambles or scrub nearby where cat maybe stuck? Call when quiet and wait for a response RENOVATIONS OR BUILDING DEVELOPMENTS nearby Ask the site foreman or someone there to check onsite and in homes cats have been found under floorboards and trapped in part and finished houses CREATE some posters with picture detailed description when and area/road missing from and phone number but NOT actual address Put through doors and posters up near to schools, nurseries, Drs surgeries and Surrounding roads 200m to start with CONTACT local council to see if they have picked up cat from roadside better to know councils should keep records of cats picked up SOCIAL Media your timeline/Groups/Pages make sure your cat is visible to Everyone & remember not everyone uses social media ADVERTS POSTERS and FLYERS are a MUST ALSO contact Local CATS PROTECTION , ANIMAL WELFARE ANIMALSEARCH UK ALSO CHECK SELLING SITES GUMTREE ETC

**ADVICE FOR MISSING HOUSE/INDOOR/DISPLACED CATS** An escaped house cat will behave very differently from an outdoor cat. For the first 3 days it will likely stay within a 5 house radius. They tend to run out and very quickly become afraid and freeze (the exception would be an unneutered cat who could be chased away fighting or mating). These first 3 days it is vital to follow this advice. Normal advice from lost and found is to put out used litter tray. PLEASE IGNORE THIS ADVICE - I shall explain why... Now your housecat is out of the house, he/she is out of their territory and in others cats territory. Your cat will be afraid and hiding very close. By putting out litter with their pheromones in, you are alerting other cats (maybe feral, aggressive un-neutered toms, or just dominant cats) to your cats presence in their turf. They will automatically react with prepared aggression to see it off. This is the last thing your hiding cat needs. Instead use your own scent or the scent of the home. Something like a pair of owner’s worn socks and used bedding or towels. You want the scent to draw/guide them home. It may sound distasteful but ..pee in a bottle and pour/spray it at cat spray height INSIDE your garden boundary. This is a scent cats know well and, again, can draw them home, it has the added bonus of repelling other cats. The contents of your vacuum are also very goodtered in the garden. When searching, it is useless to call your cat. Your voice will be full of anxiety and they will not recognise it. Besides, a frightened cat could have you stood next to them and not respond due to fear. Instead, grab a mobile and walk round making boring telephone calls or chat with a friend while searching. This normalises your voice to one your cat will recognise. Listen carefully for faint meows all the time. When searching, go out late at night when traffic noise has subsided. This is when they are most likely to calm a little and respond. Take a torch and search under hedges, in little gaps, anywhere a cat can squeeze to hide. Also look high, trees, garage roofs etc. Cats can go high when threatened or frightened. The torch light will reflect in their eyes making it easy for you to see them. Ask all neighbours to check sheds, garages, outbuildings and greenhouses. Do not be shy, offer to wait while they check! Even better, offer to check for yourself with their supervision. The most important advice is this...In the evening and through the night, leave a door open (of course for security be in the next room). Keep the entrance as quiet and dark as possible. Make their path home the least frightening as you can. Only when they are in the home and familiar with the surroundings again will they relax. The majority of missing house cats make their way home in the early hours of the morning when they feel it is safest. Do not be surprised if your cat comes in the garden but still will not come to you. This is fear and nothing personal. Back away and leave an entrance to the house clear. If this happens try to have the loan of a trap on standby from a local rescue or the RSPCA but please NEVER leave a trap unattended. Inform your chip company if chipped and email a picture and description to all local rescue centres and vets (including out of hours). Most of all try to stay calm and go over this advice.
