if it’s an indoor cat, it hasn’t gone far go outside with a flashlight call your cats name you’ll be able to see its eyes look under everything, and please keep us posted.Read More
Walk around calling your cat as you always do. Look under bushes and in hiding places. Look at dawn and dusk with a flashlight to catch the glare of your cat's eyes.
Leave garage door and lanai partially open if possible. Your cat will try to get back inside
..most likely at night.
Use a trap...The only way to find his way home.or to the trap is by smell. Use some of your used clothes, put them outside and around the trap. A friend of mine used her shirt and dragged it through the neighborhood. Her cat found the smell and followed it home. It is all about the smell. You can also cut a shirt of yours into small small pieces and leave a scent trail back to the trap. I read a few days ago that a lady put out a trace with the old litter throughout the neighborhood. It worked. Her cat came home! Use the litter to lead your cat to the trap.
Also try to distribute flyers throughout that neighborhood...as many as you can ( 3 miles radius at least). Check shelters in person...don't just call.
Put battery operated trail cameras outside. Your cat might show up in the middle of the night. When you know the time you can wait for for your cat and slow blink to make contact.
NEVER GIVE UP!
I read once that you can put a chair outside and cover it up with a blanket and the cat can jump up and hide under the blanket and feels safe. They said you should put one of your shirts under the blanket and food and water next to the chair. It might be worth a try to put up a chairRead More
Check all rescues, shelters, humane society & animal control IN PERSON! Posters everywhere and in front of home; let neighbors know & ask for help! 🙏Read More
All the above advice + Make sure you go to the shelters, animal control, humane societies & every rescue you can think of in person and check for your dog or cat as often as you can. Don’t rely on just calling to check for them. The shelters are understaffed and overwhelmed; they may not recognize your dog or cat from a description over the phone. Also, put up flers & post on Love of Louie, Pawboost, next door, Ring App, etc., etcRead More
🔻 🔻 Can you or Have you set a Humane live trap? MUST BE MONITORED CLOSELY
Cover the trap to block wind, rain, snow, sun. An old throw rug or towel with the scent of home is helpful. Large paper leaf bags work as well,trap fits in nicely 🐾
Alert all neighbors and ask to check sheds,garages, under decks, bushes, even old dog houses. If possible place pets bed in garage with
food and something that smells like home. Leave garage door up just enough to allow entry for kitty. 🐾

Yes he is. He is a feral kitten. We have his mom, she's almost domesticated already. Just skittish a little from loud sounds or fast movements. They are both fixed and chipped. We've never had him in our home, but want to give him a chance.Read More
