Lost Catsโ€ผ๏ธ Indoor only cats and limited outdoor access cats never go far. They go into survival mode and hide in silence. Most of them will not respond when they are in survival mode. 3 AM is the best time to find a missing indoor only cat. This is the time they become most active and responsive. Sit and quietly call for your kitty. Try to stay low, standing is intimidating to cats. Place some dirty socks and pillow cases outside. Your scent will attract your kitty. If you have a garage, place the items near the garage door and crack the door enough for her to get in. DO NOT leave food or litter box outside, it can attract predators and aggressive Tom cats. Because indoor only cats hide so well they are not as likely to be killed by a predator. Don't give up, it can take months to find a missing indoor only cat. Use a flashlight as late at night as you can to look in trees, under cars and in bushes. Try to look for the glow of her eyes. The best chance of you being reunited with your cat is to do a methodical search of the area. Most indoor only cats will be within 160 feet of your home. Survival mode lasts 5 to 14 days but can last longer. Once their hunger gets to a maximum they can snap out of it but this is a dangerous time because they come out of hiding. The majority of cats will try to make a break for home on the 5th night. In addition to posted flyers, make mini flyers and hand them out to your neighbors. Some people don't pay attention to posted flyers. It's VERY VERY important that you look for her as late at night as you can. If you have other cats, watch them. If they are spending a lot of time looking out a certain window, thatโ€™s a good indication the missing cat is in that area. Wildlife and motion activated cameras are also helpful. a lot of people are successful trapping their indoor only cats. If you decide to trap, you must watch the trap closely, predators can a cat in a trap.

Check in bushes and under cars near that area, and on the next street over, especially in the evening with a flashlight, calling out to her and making a familiar sound. Ask residents there if they might have seen her, and when they last did and which direction she headed if they have. If they have security cameras, video footage would help. The vet may have ideas & resources to help and may even help look since she got lost from their office. I hope she is found soon๐Ÿ™๐Ÿป

Owners - Go back to the location where the cat went missing as the cat will usually circle back to the location where they first went missing eventually. Stay there - in one localized area and set up a scent station using a scent that the cat is familiar with - worn clothing or shoes from the owner. Hang that scent out high so that it can travel and guide the cat back to that area. Post fliers with your contact information and cats picture in the location that the cat went missing --especially for those not on social media. If the cat is spotted the information can help provide what direction it was traveling. Check with local animal shelters in case he was picked up. Prayers your cat is found safely.
