Kseniia Litvishko, I'm so sorry your beautiful black cat is lost. Please try not to despair? Is Burrito an escaped indoor cat or is he allowed outside? His familiarity with the outdoors will dictate how to find him. Escaped indoor cats usually hide close by but are too frightened to return or respond when called; while a cat that knows its way around may have become stuck somewhere and needs help getting home. I have recovered many lost cats and assisted others so if you tell me about Burrito I can provide complete instructions that may help. Until I hear back from you, keep in mind that an escaped cat may emerge when it's dark and quiet to sneak back inside. If this is what happened, tonight put some comforting, familiar items outside (bedding, worn clothing, etc,) and tempting food near where he got out, then watch from inside and if you see Burrito approach be careful not to startle him. Slowly and quietly provide a clear path inside and he may put an end to the crisis himself. Also, although some will suggest putting out kitty's litter box, experts say DON’T DO IT. I've never used one in all the times I've been successful recovering a lost cat. Please read this to learn more about why it's neither necessary nor recommended: https://www.facebook.com/notes/lost-cats-georgia/why-we-dont-recommend-putting-your-lost-cats-litter-box-outside/1101245526665296/
