I hope and pray for your cat to be home safe. Please call ACCTPHILLY at 267-385-3800 and ask them about your missing cat. I saw a fella with a humane trap who trap a cat at 12002 Millbrook Road, Philadelphia ,Pa. 19154. I saw two fellas both white and in their 20's, has a white car ( it's doesn't have a LOGO on it) The driver took picture of a cat in a trap and put the trap in the back seat of his car. He got in and turned the car around, properly head back to ACCTPHILLY in Huntington Park. Please do it now by calling them because I don't like them and it's NOT A NO -SHELTER. P.S. They spent too much money on animals conbtrol team, not enough for helping the dogs and cats yet they killed them with a lethal injection.

Indoor only? Unfortunately, the chances of someone seeing your indoor cat outside during the day are very slim. I’ve been in this situation with an indoor cat escaping outside. Everything you think should work to find them is probably the opposite of what is likely to help. They’re likely in survival mode because they’re completely out of their element being outdoors. So you would think they’d come running to you as soon as they hear your voice or hear treats shaking, but that’s not how they’re thinking. They’re likely thinking if they come out of their hiding place, they’ll be extremely vulnerable to predators. You & I think, we’re standing right there, why don’t they come to me, but they’re seeing everything as a potential threat so they’re likely not going to leave their hiding place, especially during the day. If they’re indoor only & spayed/neutered, then they’re not outside having fun exploring & it’s normal for them not to respond to you when you’re outside calling them. They won’t approach strangers & will possibly even run from you if you stumble across their hiding place. You can still search for your cat’s hiding place, but don’t be surprised if you don’t find it. If you see your cat outside, do not approach, sit down & try coaxing your cat to you. Do not chase if you see them. If your cat is indoor only, then I recommend setting a motion activated camera up right outside your cat’s point of exit so you can see if it returns during the night, which is what they often do, trying to get back in under cover of darkness. Put some of your dirty laundry out there as well for scent. Do not put the litter box outside, as it will attract other neighborhood cats who will prevent your cat from returning. Only your cat will recognize your scent on your dirty laundry. You can also set up a humane trap outside the point of exit & have it ready at dark. If you do the motion activated camera first & do see your cat on it, then absolutely get a humane trap set up there the following night. Once you set a trap, do not go outside & keep the outside lights off. Monitor the trap with a camera or from an inside window. You can buy a humane trap at Tractor Supply or sporting goods/hardware stores. A trap is how I successfully caught my indoor cat. He returned in the middle of the night to where he originally got out. If you don’t have a motion activated camera, then get a humane trap set up where your cat exited your house asap & have it ready at dark. Some cats will come back inside if you leave their point of exit open after dark. If you try this, make sure other pets are secured in another room. Indoor only cats often return after dark to the exact spot where they exited your house, so a humane trap set there is important & monitoring from an inside window or by camera. If you have been going outside after dark searching for your cat, then that’s likely the problem. Your cat will not feel safe approaching your house if you’re outside walking around after dark when they’re most likely to move from their hiding place. Let motion activated cameras do the work for sightings outside your home & leave the door ajar for them to come back in. Otherwise, you need to set a humane trap outside the exit point at dark & stay inside your house once the trap is set. For tonight, try leaving the exit point open a little at dark & into the night if possible. Secure other pets inanother room if necessary. Leave inside & outside lights off & keep house quiet. If your cat walks back in, wait until they’re well inside before slowly walking to the door to close it. Use a motion activated camera if possible to alert you of movement approaching.

*Start asap* all these tips from all of us are really great tips... they really do work... pleaseeee keep repeating...check with your neighbors for any sightings and ask if they have cameras..go out really late at night or really early in am... middle of the night with flashlight and call for him/her and then quietly listen he/she may be hiding scared injured or stuck somewhere ...shine the flashlight around his/her eyes will reflect off of it...keep checking the shelters go in person make sure you're going to correct shelter where animal control would bring a cat from your area... they are too busy to contact you and check all the pets coming in...set up trail cameras near ur home ..they only take pics when something is in front of it moving ..so you don't have to look thru 24 hours of camera everyday... (there are great ppl out there to lend one to you and so many ppl in the community will help you look for him/her) if you can monitor, set a humane trap with really strong smell food to attract and make sure that’s the only food out for him/her…all the tips to find lost cats really really do work please follow them.keep posting and we'll keep sharing and hang lots of fliers talk to as many ppl and hand them fliers...it'Il keep him/her on everyone's mind so they are always on the lookout…concentrate on putting up fliers especially in ur area they really don't go far at all. If they do go outside or are not neutered/spayed may travel further. No litter box please it may attract predators. Prayers for your kitty out there and you find him/her asap.
