🐱🐈 🐶 🐕 Good advice from (Facebook) Barbara Clemons. Many missing cats are hunkered down near their homes and may be afraid to come out or unable to find their way home. But cats have an incredible sense of smell and can detect familiar odors from some distance so try these things, all of which need to be placed outside in a dry place: 1. An item or two of your clothing that you have worn but not yet laundered; 2. A rug or blanket or plush toy of kitty's; 3. A dish of smelly canned cat food; be mindful of attracting other animals. 4. Use electric can opener outside so kitty might hear it; 5. A container with a cup or so of used kitty litter. 6. Play familiar sounds for them to follow. All of these items will create a veritable smorgasbord for your cat to recognize! Also, if you have a garage, leave the door up a few inches so your cat can get inside. 7. When posting, please include where your pet was lost. 8. If chipped contact the company your pet is missing. 9. Please give out more information on location other than just city, nearby intersection. Neighborhood you live in. Good luck! I know only too well the heartbreak from a missing furbaby!❤ Smells could welcome unwanted guests? P.S. Should apply to many different pets?

Put out some things that smells like their favorite or familiar people. Do not use a litter box as this may be a beacon to predators as much as the kitty. Don't forget to change out the articles of things so the scent is refreshed. Ask your immediate neighbors and surrounding streets by 5 to 10 miles out to keep an eye out in garages, sheds, crawlspaces, porches, basements, and if possible under any places. Kitties can fit into some very small areas

Thanks everyone. I'm Buddy's cat mom. We have left his bed with our worn clothes on it, along with water and food on the porch. We have motion sensor cameras all around the house and we've canvased the neighborhood.

Hi, Nathalie! Please place his bedding 🛏outside, along with the owner's unwashed clothing👚👖 front and back door 🚪with a can of tuna 🐟 on each entrance, you can leave your garage door a bit open as well. In case it comes in that way. And leaving food there as well. Also vacuumed home 🧹dirt in a stocking hanging it in front and back of home🏡 enterence . You can also add some catnip 🌱in a stocking hanging by your entrances. Show your neighbo🖼picture of the cat. Ten houses to the left ten house to the right front and back if they spot him to give you a call☎️ immediately. Go early in the ☀️morning and shake treats calling the cats name when things are quiet.. Tell neighbors to check their sheds and garage.Just in case it's trapped.. Also, you can install a camera 📹to monitor and see if the cat is around your house . Best of luck 🍀finding your kitty 🙏 ❤️🏡🐾
