Message from Owner

My cat has been missing for almost 2 weeks now. I’ve been tracking him via AirTag collar then one morning it all of a sudden said he was at Home Depot on sunrise. So I race over there since I was just notified he was there 3mins ago. It’s a 16 minute drive from me but when I got there it showed he was still there! So I’m searching the whole parking lot and start playing the sound so the AirTag will chirp… well I hear it only a few feet away and stew wasn’t there. Only his collar was left in parking space at Home Depot’s parking lot….. HD is 8miles from my hse and 2 hours prior it showed my cat was in the neighbors backyard/hse I know he didn’t walk there in 2 hours. What could’ve possibly happened to him? Is he ok? Is he alive? Is he around Home Depot hiding? Is he inside the neighbors hse and they just ditched the AirTag at hd so they could keep him? What do I do and how can I find him!!? I’m so worried and just want him home 😞

Offer a reward if u can. Immediately (NOW)walk area shake treat bag or Bang on cat food can calling for your cat multiple times during the day-and-night especially when it's quiet out. Look under all bushes and in between houses. Ask your neighbors to check cameras garage, shed backyard. Post on nextdoor, get family & friends to search every day. Search at midnight-5am too call for ur kitten, listen for her meow

Lost Cats‼️ Indoor only cats and limited outdoor access cats never go far. They go into survival mode and hide in silence. Most of them will not respond when they are in survival mode. 3 AM is the best time to find a missing indoor only cat. This is the time they become most active and responsive. Sit and quietly call for your kitty. Try to stay low, standing is intimidating to cats. Place some dirty socks and pillow cases outside. Your scent will attract your kitty. If you have a garage, place the items near the garage door and crack the door enough for her to get in. DO NOT leave food or litter box outside, it can attract predators and aggressive Tom cats. Because indoor only cats hide so well they are not as likely to be ed by a predator. Don't give up, it can take months to find a missing indoor only cat. Use a flashlight as late at night as you can to look in trees, under cars and in bushes. Try to look for the glow of her eyes. The best chance of you being reunited with your cat is to do a methodical search of the area. Most indoor only cats will be within 160 feet of your home. Survival mode lasts 5 to 14 days but can last longer. Once their hunger gets to a maximum they can snap out of it but this is a dangerous time because they come out of hiding. The majority of cats will try to make a break for home on the 5th night. In addition to posted flyers, make mini flyers and hand them out to your neighbors. Some people don't pay attention to posted flyers. It's VERY VERY important that you look for her as late at night as you can. If you have other cats, watch them. If they are spending a lot of time looking out a certain window, that’s a good indication the missing cat is in that area. Wildlife and motion activated cameras are also helpful. a lot of people are successful trapping their indoor only cats. If you decide to trap, you must watch the trap closely, predators can a cat in a trap.
