Praying for a safe return. Please contact your local news station and share any security‑camera photos or video of your cat. They can put it on TV so the community can help identify them someone may recognize the cat and report it. Also call shelters, police departments, and local vets. Lost pets are often picked up and taken to shelters in surrounding areas without the owners knowing. A friend’s pet sat in the SPCA for 12 days before being found, so start checking right away. Also, please share this on your Facebook and to the Nextdoor Neighbor and/or Ring apps for your area for more visibility. Not everyone is on fb or on Neighbor and/or Ring apps. Also please share this in lost and found pets organizations in your area and look them up on Facebook they may be able to help you. Praying for a happy reunion.

They usually don’t venture far. It’s probably scared & hiding near by in bushes or an open garage. Most kitties will stay put in their safe hiding spot. ( if they’re not fixed they can wonder further, depends on circumstances) Ask neighbors to check their sheds, decks, garages. They usually venture out at night after 24-48hrs when they start getting hungry. The “witching” hour when they come out is 3am. If you see your pet, don’t try to grab it, it’s still on survival mode and will run. Just sit down maybe with some treats and let your pet come to you. (Remember, never put the litterbox outside. Other cats will mark it & scare your cat away. Just in case, also set some humane traps near by, hide them in the bushes where your pet might hide. Good luck & don’t lose hope. Pray to St Anthony, he hasn’t let me down. 🙏🏻🐾

I’m so sorry to hear that your boy is missing. Bringing a laser pointer outside at dusk/after dark (only if it’s not raining/snowing) and shaking a bag of their favorite treats has helped me find my lost cats in the past. They would most often be right in my back yard hiding in shrubs/landscaping and would come out to investigate the red dot. Sometimes I’d just sit in a chair outside after dark and when it’s quiet & either sit in silence or softly call their name and they would come out anywhere from minutes to the entire night. It may even take several nights. Patience and persistence has helped me find them all (over the years).💙 The humane traps also work very well. If you were putting food outside for him, stop doing so 24 hours before putting the trap out. The best time in my opinion to put the trap out is as it’s getting dark out. Very important to line the bottom of the trap with newspaper (or they won’t enter the trap). Make sure to use a few clothespins to clip the newspaper down so it doesn’t blow up from wind or a breeze. Put no more than half a can of “people tuna” on a small paper plate to bait the trap. Don’t try to trap when it’s raining, very windy or during the day; I’ve had no success during those times. Place trap either near the door your cat escaped from or at the back of your house on a flat surface(very important…if trap is wobbly, cats won’t enter it). Also must be quiet outside. You could place it next to a sliding glass door on a deck or patio if you have one with all outside lights off. Just make sure not to create a lot of movement when looking out at the trap. I have the lights inside off and I place my finger between the vertical blinds to check the trap. If you trap the wrong cat or a raccoon, opossum or skunk, just cover the trap with a blanket, turn the trap entrance away from you, then open the door. Usually they will run right out & away from you. You may be successful trapping your cat in minutes or it may take a few nights or even longer. I had 2 exceptions. It took me 3 months to find my Gabby and it took 8 months 12 days to find my Missy. Both were found at the edge of my own yard near where the woods began. Please don’t give up!💙
