Shared Plz check All local shelters and rescues EVERY day in PERSON. I say this because I had a cat get out and by some miracle found him at a shelter adoption event at a petsmart. The shelter kept telling me no haven't seen him when in fact he was there the whole time!

Put a sign on your lawn saying lost CAT. Put up flyers as well and offer a reward. Don't put an amount . Post on websites of local shelters, the town pound and vet offices. Notify mail carriers as well. Put a trap in your yard in a sheltered area and check it often. House cats hide when suddenly outside . Ask neighbors to check sheds and garages. Ask them also if anyone local feeds feral cats in their yard as your's may stop by for a meal or a drink....Prayers to find your guy.

Indoor kitties usually stay close to home. Put something with your scent on it (unwashed clothes) outside as well as the kitties litter box. If you have any other cats or put something with there scent on it too. Check under your porch if you have one. Check under grills, sheds, in garages, sheds, basements. The cat could have gotten stuck in a neighbors shed. Check yours as well as. Go door to door and ask if anyone has seen her, even put flyers at peoples doors. Leave out bowls of stinky foods , such as mackerel or sardines and set a trap with worn piece of your clothing. If there are any abandon houses or for sale houses, with no one living in them check there. Also look around at night under bushes and in shrubs with a bright flashlight. It may catch on the kitties eyes. Looking at night when its quieter is better. If he went out the door leave it open might just come in on his own.you could also get a camera (Such as the Nest. They’re not too expensive). And to leave a window or door cracked open with food inside the house by that opening. They usually go to The same opening they escaped from.
