Here are some helpful tips for finding a lost cat: Start by reviewing this guide from PetMD: https://www.petmd.com/cat/general-health/how-find-lost-cat Search at night using a flashlight. Shine the light into bushes, under decks, and up into trees—cats’ eyes will often reflect the light, making them easier to spot. Ask your mail carrier to keep an eye out. They travel throughout the neighborhood daily and may notice a cat hiding or wandering nearby. You can also try using scent to help guide your cat home. Put your urine in a spray bottle and lightly spray it around your yard and nearby areas. I learned this tip from a search-and-rescue dog handler when my own cat went missing—the familiar scent may help your cat find its way back. On YouTube, search for the helpful video titled “How to Find a Lost Cat” for additional practical advice.

General Information: Set up a scent station. Hang clothes with your scent on it (Worn clothing from owner) high up outside so the familiar scent can travel and guide the cat back home. Ask your neighbors to check their yard/could be accidently stuck in their garage or shed. (If applicable) Check doorbell or home camera - or ask neighbors to check their camera. Post Fliers with a picture of the cat and your contact information in the area the cat went missing. Not everyone is on Social Media and posters have worked in that if spotted a location can be provided. If a cat is scared they make themselves safe by finding a good hiding spot and often times hide in silence. Look in bushes - bring a flashlight and look for shining eyes. Best time to find your cat is in the early morning hours when the noise level is low and they feel safe. Leave an access point open for the cat to return. This is important if they do come back in the middle of the night. Prayers your cat returns/ or is found safely. Beware of scammers.
