Sad to see so many kitties go missing 30+ just this weekend. Poor baby, he must be so scared and hungry out on his own. 🐈‍⬛ When a cat goes missing, they can’t easily find their way home using only their scent. You must be proactive and look for them. Look under yours & your neighbor’s cars, bushes & hedges, look for glowing eyes w/flashlight, call him early evening when it’s quiet and they come out from hiding to eat. Posting is important, but please search for him, too. They don’t go far 3-4 houses away, they stay in one place until they are scared off by dogs, coyotes, or loud equipment. The challenge is finding him before he runs further way. Please hang flyers near the area where he went missing, it’ll get the immediate attention from pedestrians and drivers. Let your neighbors know you’re looking for him. Good luck finding this adorable little guy-this is coyote country. You’re the one that can bring him home safely, he will recognize your voice and your scent. Post on ND, check SDHS Lost & Found daily. If you’re able to find him, PLEASE please don’t let him go outside unattended. Cats have the intelligence of a 3yo, they don’t know the dangers they face outdoors with coyotes, dogs, cars, and worst of all people who don’t like them in their yard. It only takes an hour to train a cat on a leash, then he can be out doors safely. This is Coyote Country!
