Post on Pawboost, Petfinder.com and Facebook. Pawboost has fliers you can print up. Go door to door and talk to neighbors and leave fliers w/ the ones you don't speak to. Leave the escape route open w/ food in the next room. Sadly, cats can never be left unattended outside unless on a harness & you're right there. Coyotes are out day and night hunting. I see them frequently & get lost pet notifications every day. Coyotes are ing small dogs off leashes & can jump 10 ft fences & grabbing pets from backyards. Visit local shelters in person. Sometimes they don't post found animals or give wrong info. 🙏

Is your dog missing as well here or you think the cat snuck out when taking the dog out?

🚨 LOST INDOOR CAT – URGENT TIPS TO HELP BRING THEM HOME SAFELY 🚨 If your cat has gone missing and is usually indoors, here are critical steps to take: 🏠 Create a Safe Way for Your Cat to Return • Leave a door or window open (ideally the one they escaped from), even overnight - cats often return in the quiet late-night or early-morning hours. • Crack your garage door slightly to allow safe entry. • Place your worn, unwashed clothes up off the ground outside - your scent can help guide them home. • Do NOT place food, water, or litter boxes outside - these can attract other animals and deter your cat from returning. 🐾 Help Them Feel Safe • If you have other pets, keep them secured in a separate room to avoid scaring the missing cat away if they return. 🧭 Search Nearby and Alert Others • Cats typically don’t go far - they may be hiding under decks, in bushes, sheds, garages, or yards close to home. • Talk to your neighbors and ask them to check around their property. • Request that neighbors check doorbell or security cameras (like Ring) for sightings. 📣 Spread the Word – Not Everyone Uses Social Media • Put up physical signs ASAP - include a clear photo and contact info. • Post online in multiple places: • Facebook (your page and local lost pet groups) • Nextdoor • PawBoost Lost & Found • Ring Neighbors app ⚠️ Beware of Scams • If someone contacts you saying they have your cat and asks for money or asks you to verify a code, do NOT respond - this is a scam.
