Put some of your dirty laundry outside. The smell will travel for miles and hopefully guide them back home on their own💖

If he’s an indoor only cat, now would be a good time to search with a good flashlight. Indoor only cats go into survival mode. He will be close by, afraid and hiding. Check your yard thoroughly behind/under everything like decks, steps, vehicles, window wells, tarps/bbq covers/patio furniture, sheds/garage, up trees and shrubbery (pay close attention to decks & steps) then move outward to your neighbour’s (front/back/sides) expanding your search. They stay very close to home and typically within a few houses. Place some comforting items with your/his scent out, like dirty clothes or bedding. Open your windows a little too, to allow the air & scent out. Scent travels! You could try taking a little bit of his dirty litter and placing some in a small container out. Because they’re in survival mode they usually will NOT respond to you calling and will only come out when he feels safe to do so or gets hungry enough. He’ll likely remain in a frozen state and not make a peep or sound (even two feet in front of you). If no success in finding him during the day, go again when it’s darker and quiet, with a good flashlight (to reflect the eyes) and check all the areas listed above. Grab a bag of his favourite treats with you, gently shaking it and very calmly call his name. Good idea to get large neon posters up and talk to your neighbour’s. Keep checking lost/found pages, community page and ACCC. Don’t give up searching! Praying your beautiful kitty is found safe & soon! 🙏🐾❤️🙏

Oh no!! Shared to EDMONTON LOST & FOUND PETS! Is your cat an indoor only cat or has outdoor experience? 😔🐾❤️

I know this is not ideal, but if you can, leave your door open a little bit and put out your door worn clothes. We did this and our cat came home in the middle of the night after missing for 3 days.
