I’m so sorry your fur baby is missing. I’m posting a few tips to help you find him, and I realize that perhaps you’ve already tried some of them. (But hopefully there’s still a point or two you’ll find helpful.) Please put his bed/blanket or an unwashed article of your clothing outside, the scent will help him find his way home. (Experienced rescues advise not to use the cat litter box as it can attract predators and aggressive cats.) If he’s an indoor only kitty, he’s probably close but hiding. Check under the house, porches, and in sheds and garages, anywhere he may be trapped. Ask your neighbors to do the same. If he’s not home by tonight, search under bushes and shrubs with a flashlight, his eyes will reflect the light and you'll be able to see him. Best time to search is late night and early morning. Call his name softly and gently shake a treat bag. Post on Pawboost and LostMyKitty, excellent additional resources that can assist you in creating and printing posters and flyers to distribute throughout your neighborhood. Finally, be sure to file your kitty as “lost” with your local shelter, Multnomah County Animal Services, 503 988-7387. Send a photo to them, if possible. Many people don’t use social media, so the shelters are often the first place they turn to. Last not least, beware of lost pet scammers. They seem to be popping up on people’s posts a lot lately. All my best wishes for a speedy reunion.
