I’m so sorry your handsome house panther is missing. Have you already put out something with your scent and maybe kitty’s like a dirty shirt or blanket that you use? Cats have stronger noses than dogs so it may help him find his way home. Keep calling him at all hours especially the odd hours when it’s quiet. He might not be far just to scared to move if something spooked him. I had two cats (different cats different decades) get out & both times they were super close to home but scared stiff. So keep looking & maybe knock in a couple doors & check the surrounding buildings. Talk to the maintenance men. A while back someone found their cat after several weeks bcs kitty was in an attic of another building & the maintenance man found the cat. If you haven’t already post Nextdoor there are some really nice neighbors willing to help find lost pets. I hope he waltz’s in like nothings wrong.

If he is an indoor outdoor cat he could be trapped so nearby and unable to return. Check crawlspaces, storm drains, garages and sheds, anywhere he could be trapped inside. Ask neighbors to check their property thoroughly. Look up in trees and on roofs too. Cats are territorial and do not run away. File a lost report with the shelter and file a lost report with the microchip company too. Hope he is found safe soon
