Have you checked sheds, garages, etc...? If you have a regular feeding time, get some sardines, people tuna or a roaster chicken from the supermarket and go outside and call his/her name. Also put some dry food in a plastic container and shake it while you are looking for him/her. DO NOT LEAVE food outside because it will attract other critters. Get a good flashlight and look up trees at night and in the morning when it is still dark outside. You know (or should know) what your cats like, for examples: if they like catnip, use that to attract them or mine know the sound of the laser light key chain and come running when I pick it up. Put their litter box outside but do not leave it outside unattended because it will attract other critters. Also put out some dirty clothes so they can catch scents. The best time to find escapees is either early in the AM while it is still dark out or early PM when it is getting dark. Cats usually hide during the day. Chances are he/she isn't far from home. Put him/her on nextdoor, craigslist, pawboost and print out flyers to hang around your neighborhood, don't just call the humane society or check their website, go there in person every day! There are numerous lost/found pet pages on facebook, be sure and put him/her on there too! Also, call all of the local vets, he/she could have gotten picked up and taken to a vet, local shelter.

PLEASE get a Have a Heart trap and put in a full can of tuna!! TRACTOR SUPPLY and Home Depot have them! LOOK close to home cats don't usually go very far! They ate SCARED so they HIDE!! For WEEKS!! They stay QUIET for protection especially if they are hurt!! GO OUT with a flashlight and look under bushes and decks etc.!!!!!
