Get some of his/her used cat litter ( not the whole box just a small pile,you may need later) put in a safe dry place near house , doorways where it will not get damaged or disturbed, if you have predators don’t leave it out all night even though small amounts could attract them , put a blanket he sleeps on or you sleep on , shirt you wear that has not been washed etc out where he has a chance to catch the scent , they can smell a good distance, if have access to a trap large enough for him and can set it put food for him in it........ now.... not being familiar with the outside he’s gonna be really scared and unless he was chased is probably closer than you think ..... they hunker down first safe hole or small area they feel halfway safe in and stay there.... even if you call they too scared to move...this said make sure they are not trapped inside a shed or crawl space within your household or a neighbors property you AND your neighbors need to take a flashlight look under , over , in between whatever and everything even smallest of places, flashlight will reflect the eyes so look for that…..the cat doesn’t know a stranger so most likely won’t just stroll out to them so must find the eyes to know they are actually in there ….go out late evening ( let neighbors know you will be out looking late so they are not startled call baby gently calmly ..warm smelly food to entice its hunger ....if threatened they may climb very high in a tree so also don’t forget to check them....get signs up immediately... even if handwritten in ziploc gallon bags with the zipper down to protect flyer from rain Etc make sure it can be EASILY READ from the road!! People will not stop to read it.... but if they can easily read from the road or see a picture if they know something they will get out of their car to get the phone number..... if they can’t read it and they do know something you just lost your contact to your baby.... do this quickly....🙏🙏 Do NOT GIVE UP!!!!….. I am also going to add here that in this day and time it’s beyond disheartening that scam artist are trying to play on innocent owners missing their babies and their hearts are aching for ant clue on getting their loved ones back home… I’ve been there… I’ve gotten text from people saying I’ve found your pet so and so… I need you to prove you are real owners… or I work with vets I’ll keep eyes open, then text later want more privacy info…. BEWARE… these are scams…. If they say they have your pet , ok send me a picture of the animal you think is mine and if it is I’ll prove I’m the owner with more pictures or vet records, do not do the google code , or buy gift cards ,text this weird number for a tracker , call a vet or a rescue ask for legit recommendations of a tracker and most actually have a website already and can be validated by one call to a rescue, things that scam artist would use…. I’m the first to want to make sure the baby truly goes to the right owners, just be careful 🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏
