Post on Nextdoor and Neighbors Ring apps. Indoor cats stay close to home and may hide. Put out items of unwashed clothing or towels with your scent on it, 🚫DO NOT put a litterbox outside or in your garage with door cracked despite some people advising you to, it can attract predators, dogs or tomcats to the area that could endanger and chase him/her off preventing your cat from returning home.🚫 Go out multiple times between dusk and dawn with a flashlight to look for eyeshine, bring his/her treat bag and shake it while calling his/her name. You can even try a laser pointer toy and shine it around on the ground while out looking. If he/she is microchipped make sure your contact info is up to date and contact chip company to report as missing. Put up flyers within a 1 mile radius, not everyone uses social media. Talk to your neighbors, have them check garages, yards and sheds. Check the animal shelter daily, go in person often and bring a photo of your cat because they don’t always update their website daily, they are notoriously unreliable over the phone, telling people their pet isn’t there when it is and can be resistant to letting people go in the cat area to look for their cat so be firm and polite (The Animal Foundation). Most importantly be consistent and persistent, get out there on foot, not car, after dark everyday to search and don’t give up.

Try putting something of yours outdoors, it might help your cat find their way home. A blanket, or an article of clothing. Do not put a litter box outdoors it can attract predators. Try going out after dark with a flashlight and a bag of treats. More than likely, the cat is scared and afraid to come out. Good luck!

Tips for finding a lost cat * Leaving out litter boxes, food and treats may attract other neighborhood cats who may bully your cat and not allow them to return home * Leave out some dirty laundry, or a hamper, the cats favorite blanket * Get a humane cat trap and leave some of your laundry in there (not a good idea to leave food in there bc you may trap another cat. Also dont leave the trap unattended, unless it’s on your property. Leaving the traps against a wall or fence helps, cats like to walk alongside things) * Leave some of their toys or cat beds outside * Leave the door or window they escaped from open * Cats typically travel back at night time. * Is there a smell they associate with you? Our cat returned after smelling the weed smoke (we smoked outside) * Leave the windows open a crack, just in case you hear meowing * Walk around the neighborhood, with a cat carrier, can of food and toy (call their name. And even if you dont find them your scent around the neighboorhood helps) * Sit outside at night and call your cats name * Look under bushes, sheds, patios, car hoods. * Knock on neighboors doors ask to check their backyard or ask them to check * Hang fliers all over the neighboorhood. (Write the phone number big, call or text, please do not chase, spot last seen, and description of cat, get printed in color) * Call local vets and shelters to see if brought it * Shaking treats may be counterproductive and may startle them * Put a camera outside that tracks motion (if possible) * Indoor cats typically wont go further than 3-5, at most 10 houses * When you see your cat again, whether it walks inside your home or you see your cat in your yard, or on a neighbors property, be COOL. Do not scream in excitement. Sit down. Let them come to you. Lure them into the carrier with food and zip it up. Do not try to grab them, this may only startle them to run again * Look in trees as well Good luck, I hope you find your fur baby
