Message from Owner

My indoor only cat got out Tuesday night and after spotting her in a neighbors yard haven’t seen her since. She will run away if you get too close and wouldn’t respond to her name when called.

Is Miwa's guardian following this post? I ask because I have a strategy for getting your beautiful black cat back inside. Please understand she is likely hiding close by, but is too frightened to return in the daylight or respond to your calls -- it's typical for her to run, so instead you'll use her instincts to facilitate her voluntary return -- most escaped cats will attempt to come home on their own, usually within the first few nights if the conditions are just right, so if you know what to expect and how to react, you could have her back inside by morning. I've recovered many escaped cats and have a full set of instructions, but I’ll withhold them for now, hopeful you won’t need them. This is what I suggest you do and when: If you don't see this comment until morning, DURING THE DAYTIME alert nearby neighbors in case Miwa is hiding just beyond your property (under a vehicle, outdoor furniture, shrubs, or in a garage, shed, or carport, etc.), then, if there’s time before dark and you can search SILENTLY without dislodging her from her hiding spot, focus your efforts close to home and tiptoe around in the daylight using a flashlight, but be quiet and discreet so as not to frighten her (shhh! DO NOT CALL or shake treats), check every crack and crevice, look in, under and around sheds, vehicles, furniture, under foundations and porches, into trees etc. but suspend searching when it gets dark to give her the chance to return voluntarily. Note: if you find her hiding spot, DO NOT approach if she appears ready to run -- it's better to leave her where she is than risk scaring her farther away -- and if you do get hold of her, pinch her scruff to calm her and don't let go until she's safely contained (escaped cats have the tendency to struggle). IMMEDIATELY (if you see this comment overnight) or AT DUSK lay a familiar blanket or worn teeshirt flat on the doorstep where she escaped (DO NOT USE a litter box, bedding, trap or anything obvious -- it's there for scent only to give Miwa the confidence to come out of hiding) along with a bowl of food (to calm her and hold her attention). Call her softly to provide a familiar sound and direction, then watch and listen closely from inside (DO NOT GO BACK OUTSIDE OVERNIGHT!) and if you see Miwa approach and settle on the food be very careful not to startle her as you slowly and quietly provide a clear path back inside. If you can't wait up, set an alarm and watch again just before sunrise -- it's a popular time to return. Please let me know what happens tonight and if she's not back by morning, I'll provide more detailed instructions. Also, although some suggest putting out kitty's litter box, EXPERTS WARN AGAINST IT. I've never used one in all the times I've been successful recovering a lost cat.

Good tips here go look at night with a flash light it will reflect on their eyes and shake some kibble and call their name prayers for you and your baby don't give up look up high in trees and place some recently worn clothing outside

I’m so sorry, I hope you find her. Try leaving garage door open slightly for her with water and blanket with your scent on it. Check periodically. Please, no litter box outside, it attracts predators

Put some of your dirty clothes on your front porch and in your bushes and hopefully your cat will smell your scent and come home
