Drag scent trails… He may be hiding under a porch, a shed, or a car, behind bushes, or in a wooded area. Go out late at night with a flashlight that might reflect against his eyes, and call him gently. Or shake a bag of treats, sometimes better than your voice to attract a cat that’s scared. Create scent trails on the grass and ground leading up to your home (or to a trap, ideally monitored with a trail cam, so you can respond quickly when the cat is in the trap). Get a towel and rub it with your dirty laundry, blankets, socks, or anything else with the scent of home. (Do not use kitty litter.) Tie a rope to the towel and drag it from the areas where you think the cat might be, creating scent trails leading to your house (or the trap). You won’t smell the scent on the towel or the ground, but the cat will. (If you use a trap, load it with a little cat food, chicken or tuna, enough to attract the cat from the trail that leads up to it. Rely on the scent trails to get your cat to the trap.) Rain and snow will wash away the scent trails, so you’ll have to drag again afterwards. Also, renew the trails every couple days. Try to remain patient and hopeful. Some cats only show up after many days or even weeks. Important: . Never leave a trap unattended, always keep an eye on it, checking it every 1/2 hour in person or with a trail cam. Position the trap close to where the cat escaped or was last seen. . Trail cam photos and videos are marked with time stamps, helpful to know if and when the cat shows up but doesn’t go into the trap. . Post flyers in the area with a picture of your cat and your contact information. . Even if you don’t have a trap or a trail cam, scent trails leading to your home can work.

Go out late at night or pre-dawn when it's quiet. Call out name of kitty softly if kitty eats kibbles bring a bag and shake it. Kitty is probably close by check under bushes and under pouches. Don't give up, it may take several tries.. Good luck!

My God, when will people learn? Cats belong safely indoors. Every time a cat is allowed outside, it risks being hit by a car, attacked by other animals, exposed to diseases, parasites, and fleas—or simply never coming home. Loving your cat means keeping it forever safe Indoors! If you are blessed enough to get him back, please keep him exclusively indoors 🙏 ————— Start walking outside day and night, especially at dusk as he’s probably hiding somewhere near, so check all the hiding spots around your house outside (under deck, sheds, bushes, etc.), and your neighbors yard too and let them know. Call his name out but very calmly and softly & bring a noise that he’s familiar with like shake a bag of hard food & keep calling his name and keep going outside. He’s out there close by hiding as he must be scared. Indoor cats Don’t roam very far.. wherever he left from, leave the door a little bit open and put some familiar scents outside for him like his bedding, your socks, and his most smelly soft foods… keep going outside day & nite & call his name calmly. He’s out there close by so Do Not give up & much good luck🙏
