If he's microchipped then please let the microchip company know that he's missing and put posters up around your local area x

Please check garages, garden bushes if neighbours etc YOURSELF. Your cat will most likely respond to you. Leave shed doors etc open for a good time, be patient ok. Take treats and water xxxGo out late at night or early hours of morning when it's quiet and safer for cats to cross roads and come out of hiding. Try to search by thinking of your home as centre of a circle. Go to edge of circle, then start calling, stop, listen hard, repeat slowly all the way back home. Repeat from different points on circle. If your cat hears you they will follow your voice in the right direction. Do same when door knocking. Your cat could be laying low to feel safe.

Always best to drop flyers (with photo of cat) through letterboxes around your area asking everyone to open and check their sheds,garages etc., Not everyone is on Facebook so your post will not be seen by everyone. Cats are notoriously nosey and will enter through an open door and get accidentally shut in. Please act swiftly as dehydration could become an issue. Hopefully chip is uptodate. 🤞

You may have done some of this already, but if not it might be worth putting a photo through the doors of houses/flats in nearby roads to home. Many people don’t walk around their local area and some don’t go out a great deal so they might not realise a visiting cat in their garden is a missing one. Plus, posters at the railway stations, bus stops, and newsagents. A poster at the station worked for me. Mine was found after 10 days, so don’t give up hope. Also if you have any used cat litter, (or bedding), spread bits of it around your borders outside. Cats can pick up their scent from some distance. I hope your cat is back home with you soon.🙏🤞🐾
