Message from Owner

I adopted Oliver and his sister, Penny, as 8 week old kittens. They are like children to me, and I miss Oliver so very much. We moved to Palo Alto recently, and he is not familiar with the area. He is an indoor cat and is very shy. He will likely try to run away if you approach him too quickly. I would be so incredibly grateful to be reunited with my beautiful kitty cat.

Oliver may be hiding under a neighbor’s house or their backyard. He may show up in a day or two once acclimated to his new surroundings. Ask your new neighbors to keep a lookout for him. Also, the suggestions from other posts are well worth considering. Maine Coon Cats are loyal and smart. Give your cat some time.

General Information: indoor cats are usually close to home. They are unfamiliar with being outside and are very afraid - probably hiding in what he deems as a safe spot. Set up a scent station. Hang clothes with your scent on it (Worn clothing from owner) high up outside so the familiar scent can travel and guide the cat back home. NO LITTER BOX OR FOOD. Ask your neighbors to check their yard/could be accidently stuck in their garage or shed. (If applicable) Check doorbell or home camera - or ask neighbors to check their camera. Post Fliers with a picture of the cat and your contact information in the area the cat went missing. Not everyone is on Social Media and posters have worked in that if spotted a location can be provided. If a cat is scared they make themselves safe by finding a good hiding spot and often times hide in silence. Look in bushes - bring a flashlight and look for shining eyes. Best time to find your cat is in the early morning hours when the noise level is low and they feel safe. Leave an access point open for the cat to return. This is important if they do come back in the middle of the night. Prayers your cat returns/ or is found safely. Beware of scammers.

Go around late at night calling them with food and flashlight to catch their eyes. Check around your neighborhood under houses and in small places where they may hide. Put stuff out that has yours and their scent on it. Hang flyers around for people to see. Check shelters and vets daily. Update chip info if they have a chip and its has not been update since a move. Ask neighbors to check in their garages incase they ended up trapped in one. I pray you get your baby back safe and soon.
