If she is an indoor only cat, or new to an area, she is hiding very nearby where she was last seen. The good news is indoor cats are almost always found you just need to look everywhere! Look quietly with a flashlight even during the day. Put out dirty laundry and other familiar scents outside ASAP with water and bedding. Look under bushes, decks, porches and cars with a flashlight even during the day . Look for her anywhere she could hunker down and hide in or under. If you didn’t see her escape look thoroughly inside the house. Look in fireplaces, closets, cupboards, drawers, behind appliances, up inside furniture and in crawlspaces too. Put flyers on neighbors porches asking them to check their property throughly for anywhere she could be hiding in case she slipped out of your yard. Look inside sheds, attics, bats and garages too. Post on Nextdoor and file a lost report with the shelter . Hope you find your kitty soon . Just don’t stop looking everywhere .
Our daughters cat slipped out of her house and hid almost two weeks until we saw her on security cameras. Every time she opened the door her cat would flee! We finally set a humane cat trap near her porch and monitored it from a distance with a security camera and caught her within a few hours. So leave the porch light on. If she continues to hide, set the trap in the early morning or evening hours.,Hoping you will find her, just don’t stop looking. If she is microchipped, file a lost report with the microchip company and make sure contact info is current
