Tips for FINDING a lost cat. Cats that are not used to being outside, OR get spooked by someone or something outside, will find the 1st place to hide and HUNKER DOWN in SILENCE. They tend to remain VERY NEAR. Cats that are scared and in foreign environment will often NOT meow/ respond to calls even from their human (at first) ...though Kitty still needs to HEAR you and keep hearing you (until kitty THINKS it’s safe to come forward: that can take several days) - so do NOT stop calling out... Kitty is in survival mode and meowing would give away the hiding spot to predators. Outside is strange for indoor cat..with wind & loud noises. Be patient...Don't give up! Kitty is out there. CALL for kitty consistently throughout the day and ESPECIALLY AT NIGHT from 10:30 PM until 6AM (when it’s quiet, dark and cats feel ‘safer’ to move out of hiding). VERY important as this is how most people find their lost cats. Call for kitty in your NORMAL, CALM voice and wait. Shake treats (if that is something kitty normally responds to). I can’t tell you how many kitties come out of hiding during these late hours…(or you can hear meows then if they are trapped in your next door neighbors garage, shed or backyard for example). Put pieces of your worn clothing outside, post on Nextdoor

If you haven't already done so, post to Nextdoor, Felines 209 (there is a duplicate group so make sure you are posting to the Felines 209 group with 23k+ members), the Ring app, Lostmykitty, and 24Petconnect (they will contact all shelters in the area) to cover all your bases as not everyone is on social media. If cat is microchipped, contact microchip company and also update your address with them, if needed. Talk to your neighbors to see if they saw your cat, if they would look at security camera video to see which direction he wandered off, and for them to check their garage/shed in case your cat got locked inside. Put up brightly colored flyers in the neighborhood and extend out to 1.5 miles as cats travel. Indoor-outdoor cats travel up to a 17-house radius, from home. If safe, go out late at night/very early morning and rattle the cat's favorite food/treats. Use a flashlight as cats eyes are reflective in the dark when a light is aimed at them. If your cat is an inside cat, they normally do not wander off too far so chances are it is nearby so check under bushes and up in trees. Indoor only cats tend to only travel 54 yards, or roughly a 2.5-house radius, from their homes. People expect that if they call for the cat, the cat’s going to come to them, but they won’t because they’re terrified. Also, if safe, leave garage door open just enough for the cat to squeeze through if he tries to get in. You can also leave some of your worn clothing outside as cats have a keen sense of smell. Praying your cat returns home soon.
