Mabel is still missing. She may be hiding under or in someone’s shed. Please keep an eye out. She is not likely to come to a stranger. If you see her please comment here so we can attempt to reunite. Our family is worried sick.

Sharing again that she has never been outdoors and never tried to go outdoors even when the weather was beautiful. We are devastated and at a complete loss. We have followed all guidance and continue to call for her in late and early hours. I don’t know what else to do and I’m scared we will never see her again.

I just want to share this with you. My cat Snoopy got out on a Friday night and I immediately set a trap. On Sunday, I bought a second trap. I checked the two traps after 6 am Monday morning. No luck. Monday night for the first time, I left the garage door open slightly enough for my cat Snoopy to get in and I left the cellar door open. I left the lights off in the garage and cellar, except for a light in a separate room. I put 2 blankets by the garage door entrance that Snoopy slept on. I kept all my other cats upstairs. After checking the traps with no luck, I went downstairs and I heard something and then found Snoopy in the cellar. My other cats went down to greet him. I am so grateful that Snoopy is home.

Some time ago, my young cat snuck out late. I called him and put out a trap, but he didn't come. In the morning, I went out and made cat sounds like he does because he doesn't meow. I then heard him respond and found him hunkered down beside the air conditioner. He must have been very scared all night. He was only about 20-25 feet from my back door. I copied the following messages from other people giving advice on finding lost cats. If Indoor Fixed Kitties: Indoor fixed kitties rarely go far and are usually found hiding scared nearby. Look under everything...porches, decks, sheds, cars, bushes, etc. Look at night and into the wee hours of the morning with a flashlight to see eyes glowing. Ask/tell neighbors. Flyers = sightings. Consider using a humane trap ASAP. Please no litter box outside because it can attract predators and potentially keep your kitty from returning. Prayers for a safe return. If you're able you can also try leaving a door, garage door or window cracked open to let kitty come back in. A video doorbell or trail camera can be helpful to see if kitty is coming around when you're sleeping. Honestly - the magic time is 11pm-6am in spring/summer (8pm-6am in fall/winter) - when no humans are outside. That is when they feel comfortable coming out of hiding. Sit on steps/porch by where cat escaped - talk softly. Let cat come to you. Avoid eye contact. Lost pets will not act "normally" - they are in survival mode.

try leaving the exit point open a little tonight at dark. Secure any other pets in another room if necessary. Keep lights off & house quiet. If you have a video doorbell, use it to alert you if there’s motion. Do not go outside once you leave the door open at dark. Very often they will wait until it’s dark & then they return to exactly where they got out & they’ll try to get back in. Put some of your dirty laundry outside the exit point for scent. Do not put the litter box outside as it will attract other male cats who will prevent your cat from returning. If you can’t leave the exit point open after dark, you’ll need to set a humane trap there at dark & monitor it by camera or from an inside window. Do not go outside once you set the trap so your cat feels comfortable approaching. The chances of your cat approaching a stranger, approaching you, or being seen during daylight hours is very low. Your cat is in survival mode if it’s indoor only.
