Ask your local mailman if they've seen your kitty or if they can keep an eye out.

Call and visit your shelters and pounds. Someone could have picked your baby up. Also they can note that your kitty is missing and if she is turned in they will call you. It also doesn't hurt to call them often just in case.

I'm so sorry about your kitty. Here are some tips that helped me find my little guy when he got out. My kitty got out in the middle of winter for 11 days. I put flyers out everywhere and some very nice friends of a friend of mine saw my flyers and said he was living under their outside stairs. Flyers work. Also I was told to go out at night when it's quiet and call your kitty calmly. They are scared when outside even if it's your voice they hear so shouting or calling loudly isn't recommended. Also using a flashlight while looking in garages and bushes helps. Cats eyes glow when a light beams on them. Shaking treat bags can help too. Don't do a litterbox that can attract dangerous animals that could hurt Kitty. You can do a piece of dirty laundry of yours that they can be attached too. One more thing also is to get a humane trap from a local shelter and put the smelliest food inside. Believe it or not KFC chicken has helped attract cats more than any food lol. Also cameras can help also to see if your baby comes around when you're not home. I wish you the best of luck and hope. 💜💜💜💜🍀

Flyers are most important and best put in an upside down zip gallon bag to help protect from the elements. A worn piece of clothing often works well on your porch or just inside a garage. Which door is open about 5 in and placed inside the garage near the opening to help attract your cat. If it's nearby. It also would be good to focus on a 122 black radius of your location several times a day, especially at Dawn dusk and feeding time, shaking a bag of cat treats or cat food, very grossly to help attract your cats attention. If it is nearby and bring a flashlight with you to help catch a glimpse of your cat's eyes if it's nearby. Make sure you check local animal control in person at least twice a week to see if your fur baby has arrived and make sure you contact them. If you adopted from a rescue. They always like to know if a former animal is missing. If your cat has a microchip, make sure your contact information is up to date so you can be contacted. If your cat is found. It would also be good to post on neighbor's ring app which covers a 3-mile radius of your location and alerts. People that have the app. Make sure you check in shrubbery under decks and porches and trees in window Wells and ask your neighbors to check their shed and garage, especially in a one to two block radius of your home. Wishing a quick and safe return. Good luck!

You might try a live trap, they are fairly cheap, my Jane wanted to come back but was too overwhelmed and scared, she had made a home under a backyard shed across the street. Eventually she was found eating hamburger in the trap on my front porch and all was right again. It took about 3 weeks for her to show up and i did have to release squirrels and possums along the way which were easy. Tuna in oil also makes a lot of scent. Make sure there's water too. If its cold out, wrap the trap in a blanket and make sure to check it often, check it often no matter what the weather is. In fact, best to keep a camera on it. I believe in Jane's case, the live trap was her only chance. Best of luck and a swift resolve for you I hope
