Division is a very long road. So, PLEASE edit your post to include the cross streets. This important information will help you get better assistance . ⚠️ Time is of the essence so getting outside ASAP is crucial.(Seriously. Like now.) ➡️ Go out OFTEN, several times, at various times of day. 🌙 Especially during the quiet hours late at night. Cats often venture out between dusk and dawn/early morning. 🔶️ BUT ANYTIME IS THE RIGHT TIME TO LOOK! ❗️ ➡️ STAY OUT for as long as you can each time. Search in ALL directions from your home. EXPAND your search area each time. 🐈‍⬛ Calmly call for or talk to him, so he doesn't hear the anxiety in your voice and stay hidden. 🟡 Use a flashlight to check for eye shine. ↪️ Look under and inside EVERYTHING. Under decks, in sheds or garages,etc. 🍤 Bring treats, tuna, toys, or a friend. 🗣 Record any other pet or favorite family to play while you search. ☑️ Pause. Listen a lot. And listen long. ➡️ Go door to door. Talk to EVERYONE. Leave a detailed note (or better yet, a flyer w/photo) on EVERY door. Ask people to check security footage.👀 💦 Put out water (and food if monitored) ✅️ Hang out his bedding and some of your unwashed items for a scent trail. Create a trail of small items leading towards home. ✅️ Post on Nextdoor, Pawboost, Petco and the county website. ✅️ Check Facebook for your neighborhood/area's chat group (s), there may be several. Join and post there. ✅️ Alert local veterinarians too. ✴️ Make BIG BRIGHT POSTERS for your yard and streets so passersby can be on the lookout. 💟 Being outside is key. So please spend as much time as possible out in you yard and that area. ☑️☑️Double check that the microchip has your current information. 🏠 If possible, please leave away for him to get back inside. *Also consider contacting an agency for a live trap if necessary. Prayers for your kitty's safe return.🐈‍⬛
