UPDATE: HE IS HOME!!! After 3 days, he got up the courage to leave his hiding spot and came home, just this morning- a little hungry, tired and thirsty but in perfect health. We are deeply grateful and touched at the kindness of humanity while he was missing. Thank you for caring!

Praying your sweet Buckey is safe and will return home soon or someone will help reunite with your family 🙏🐾💕🐈‍⬛💕🤞😔 Keep looking and gently calling out for him shake some treat/kibble even in the dusk/evening hrs bring flashlight. Make neighbors aware and ask them to check their door ring cameras and continue to check their yards, shrubs, trees, crawl spaces, sheds, garages etc. he may be scared and hiding somewhere. If he’s microchipped make sure his information is updated and accurate with the microchip service and contact his veterinarian also. Check shelters in person and let them know your kitty is missing. Post flyers everywhere with picture and as much of his description/information. Keep checking on Facebook, PawBoost, Nextdoor, etc posts of found cats that are lost and people trying to reunite with their families. Post on Pawboost to circulate and let people know in your area that your kitty is missing. Contact other organizations that help find lost pets even with drones and they may have suggestions what you can do. Keep something with his scent like a bed/blanket or something of yours like unwashed shirt/sweater outside on covered porch to help him find home. Don’t give up hope! Sharing this post

Since he/she's an indoor kitty, he/she's likely very nearby, within a 7 house radius, hiding in fear. One of the most effective tips I see posted is- Take treats and a flashlight out when it's dawn/dusk/ night. Walk slowly, shine light under bushes and other areas, like decks and crawl spaces, and up into trees. Pause, shake treats, calmly call his/her name. Listen for rustling sounds or replies. Take a few more steps, repeat. OnlY do this within your own yard, so you don't accidentally encourage your cat to leave the immediate area. Many cats will not reply even to owners when lost. Important to keep ur voice calm and gentle, even though ur stressed and panicked. Post on NextDoor. Notify mail carrier that ur looking for him/her. Notify neighbors so they know he/she's not a stray if they see him/her. Look at neighbors doorbell cams for sightings. ****Indoor cats will often try to get back inside, but can't find a way in.**** If safe, leave a door or window cracked, with smelly cat food and/or your worn clothing nearby. If not safe to leave door open, make sure u still leave water out for him/her. Food, too, if u can keep an eye on it to make sure dominant strays don't get to it and consequently keep him/her away. Have a safe, warm box shelter nearby, too.

If pet is chipped, contact the chip company and make sure your info is Current and Correct. Mistakes are often made. (And some data bases have closed down.) Here are several frequently used chip companies, for updating: https://www.24petwatch.com/ https://www.petlink.net/account/register-pet https://www.homeagain.com https://www.akcreunite.org

Put something unwashed out on your porch that smells like you, a blanket or a shirt. I hope he returns soon and safe
