Please Bring Lil Joe home! The recent 28412 Storms spooked him and he took off Sunday night. Very sweet, might be a little spooked by people but will work for food. Hasn’t eaten since Sunday night 8/2. LOVES Wet food! He has a very quiet almost non existent meow. 😔🩵

Put articles of clothing and shoes on the porch Spread some used litter around the house and yard area Look for her late at night and early in the morning when it is dark and quiet Use a flashlight to see her eyes Probably close by and hiding Keep calling kitty kitty calls and meow sounds Don't give up

There’s a cat that looks similar to him that shows up at one of the spots where I put out food every night for strays. Tonight it was just sitting in the middle of the road waiting for me. It didn’t approach me but didn’t tense up or run away when I walked by either, and it went straight for the food when I started walking away. It’s a little ways away from where you live though. In Monkey Junction off Piner Rd behind the middle school. It’s been showing up right at Brighton Rd and Cameo Court around 9:30pm for the last few nights. I’m not able to bring it home even if I thought it would let me pick it up and bring it home. I have 3 insane dogs and a partially domesticated feral cat that gets along with the dogs but hates all other cats.

Poor little guy!! He is so so vulnerable outdoors!! He is extremely scared right now all alone outdoors and he will keep hiding so you MUST search and call him! He will hide around and under bushes or under cars at an apartment complex. He needs  to hear your familiar voice, so he knows you are there for him. You must search for him immediately! Coyotes are everywhere here and roam around all night hunting for cats. Your sweet kitten will be hiding. Call his name softly as you look. Check around all bushes near you. Get anything you have that he has used so it has his scent on it. Like his cat beds, toys, blankets, his litter box, etc. Put these on your balcony and outside your door. He can smell it from a very long distance to help him find home. The problem in an apartment complex is that he doesn’t know how to use the stairs to reach his apartment. Hopefully you are on the first floor. Leave food and water outside your apartment door for him. He might smell his food. Put up posters around your building and ask management to send out a mass email to the complex. Put posters with his photo on it on all of the dumpsters at your apartment complex. Everyone will see a poster there. Set a safe cat trap in the bushes near your apartment. Put smelly, fishy cat food inside it, like tuna or mackerel. Cover the trap with a towel so he won’t be scared if he goes inside it. Use a flashlight to look for him and call him all around your building. Search and call him several times a day and at night. Do a search on the internet for ways to find a lost cat or kitten at an apartment complex. There’s lots of information out there. Start searching all around your apartment building immediately and you might find him. Prayers for his safety and rescue❣️🙏🙏🐈💕💕
