❤️ I've reunited over 100 LOST cats - please read my long comments and follow as best as possible. Do not rely on ONLINE. During the day flyer and talk to neighbors door to door - at night CALL for kitty CALMLY at the escape point and spend time there … shine flashlight under parked cars and/or bushes, under stairs, decks …AND LURE TO WET FOOD BOWL with (mini) blink camera aimed ...if no camera yet, start with wet food bowl tonight (prevent ant from invading the food by placing wet food bowl inside a larger bowl and fill the outer bowl with water) ❤️ You will find your sweet furry baby - be patient - stay determined - continue to take action in person - don't let anyone discourage you. Kitty is nearby hiding or stuck - either way kitty is scared and in survival mode and will hide from ALL humans..GAIN access to your nextdoor neighbors from all sides - ask to go out there ALONE bring a flashlight to shine under the decks to catch the reflection of kitty’s eyes. they are the best hiders. When My own cat Sophie (who used to be allowed on our backyard patio) went missing, I called and searched and because of her AIRTAG I found her 2 backyards over (I hopped fences and asked for forgiveness of my neighbors who know me) and found her under a dense shrub she was not budging and acted like I was a predator she was so scared. I brought my carrier sat down for an hour and was able to get her inside my carrier and get her home….SHE WAS TERRIFIED HIDING FROM ME!! EVEn though she was used to the backyard, because she left the backyard she went into SURVIVAL MODE ,terrified and HID in silence. ❤️. Buy a motion activated camera ($29 mini blink camera on amazon works great and you can overnight it) to aim at the wet food bowl you will put by the escape point at sunset (and ongoing sunsets if you don't find kitty tonight). It took 4 nights for Beanie baby cat to go to the food at night then the guardian set my trap the next night and watched from inside and kitty was trapped night 5. It took 6 nights to spot lost cat Marmalade coming to the wet food at midnight caught on camera! And because she is skittish we had to humanely trap her. It took several tries as she was scared of the trap. We had to get her used to the trap being there.....so we placed the wet food inside the UN-SET trap to get her to go into the trap for 1 night and once she went in THEN we SET the trap and did a STAKEOUT where we watched closely out the window with the lights off until she came. The next night we used a baby monitor so we could see close up and also to scare off possoms that kept coming. (scare them without making noise just by opening the door and shushhing or squirt bottle) . Watch the training video from previous post before EVEN thinking to trap. It's SO helpful. *** place kitty's known WATER bowl outside too ❤️ Don’t rely on online forums 🙏 talk to your immediate neighbors, gain access to yards - FLYER. ask to go into your neighbor's yard ALONE and bring a flashlight to shine under stairs/ decks or inside sheds , in garages, under crawl space....don't give up. You can get kitty HOME ❤️

Ingrid McKenney Dear Ingrid - she's there hiding. Did she escape from the front or back? Leave the escape door open 4 inches. Place your other kitty in your bedroom with litter box food and water so you can leave the escape door open 4 inches. She is terrified and in survival mode HIDING VERY CLOSE to the escape point - that's what they do - they don't leave they hide - you will want to spend time outside the escape door TONIGHT starting as the sun is setting calling for her CALMLY so CALMLY over and over and Lure her to wet food left at the escape point - and order a camera NOW to arrive by tomorrow - amazon's mini blink: https://a.co/d/0j8La4rt it will be delivered by tomorrow so you can set it up aimed at the wet food by tomorrow night - but tonight start with the wet food in HER bowl - if she hides from you ongoing BUT you see her comign to the food on camera - THEN it's time to go into trapping mode- you will do a stakeout once you set a humane trap. waiting for her ...making sure no other animal comes near the trap...be very calm and quiet if you have to scare away a possom for exampel because she COULD be watching. NO DRY FOOD - only wet food so raccoons dont come and devour the food and place the bowl on a plate or in a larger bowl and add wwater to the plate/outer bowl to prevent ants from swarming the food as shown in this photo...i'll post details next

Help us find our little one! This was her first time outdoors and she is probably terrified, potentially hiding in a dark space. Because she's so dark, she's also hard to see. Please keep an eye out for our loved one and ping us with any news!
