Sorry your beautiful kitty is missing. Is he microchipped? Is he indoor-only? Is he wearing a collar with identifying information? Be sure to post on all local lost pet sites including Skippy Lou's and West Nashville and Bellevue Lost and Found Pets. If he is indoor-only be sure to include the info. Check the found cat posts also. Put flyers up in your neighborhood--not everyone checks social media. Let local vets and shleters know. Make sure he is not trapped in the house somewhere. From my experience, when indoor cats get outside, they usually do not go far. Look VERY closeby: in bushes, under cars, under porches, under decks, and in your neighbor's yards. Ask your neighbors to be on the lookout for him and to check their crawlspaces, garages, and sheds. Cats sometimes get trapped there. Shake his treats or call him like you do when you feed him. Place your clothing outside so he can follow the scent. Know that he is probably scared and may not respond to your voice or you calling his name. They go into survival mode. When our indoor cat got out, we had walked by him several times while calling his name and he stayed hidden in the bushes. So really look. Bring an open container of tuna when you are looking. Use a flashlight when looking for him to catch his eye reflections. I am praying that he gets home immediately.
