Lengthy, I know, but covers just about everything other owners have posted on what they did to find their cat. I hope you find your kitty soon- INDOOR and can apply to INDOOR/OUTDOOR SEARCH ♦️🐈Thoroughly check the inside of the house. Many find great hiding spots. Check drawers, behind nightstands, desks, couches, behind appliances, in closets. Check any openings between a wall and ceiling they could get in. They really can fit in small spaces and hide very well. ♦️🐈Set up a humane trap. Monitor it with a security camera or a trail cam. You can try tuna, chicken-rotisserie and KFC work well (no bones of course) sardines or even just canned cat food, their favorite treats or even catnip. Try pouring some chicken broth around the house/area. Try putting some small tempting pieces outside the trap, then some leading into the trap with the bulk of it in the back behind the trip plate. Try covering the side and back with a towel. Make sure you monitor and check the trap frequently. Can also put something with your scent and/or the cats scent inside the trap or wrap around the trap. ♦️🐈Leave a window, door, garage door partially open, after securing any other pets. Try putting down a trail of tasty treats leading into the house especially if seen and just won’t come to you. ♦️🐈Check with neighbors in case the kitty was found and they took it in. ♦️🐈PHYSICALLY go out and look for the cat. Get on your hands and knees. Search your own property and then expand to neighboring properties, with permission. Cats can get into small spaces and will hide in silence. Use a strong flashlight to look under porches, decks, sheds, dense brush, drainage pipes/ditches. You may catch their eye reflection in the light. ♦️🐈Follow the edge of the house or building. A panicked cat will most likely follow along the side of a house or building they got out from.
