Jen Gordon I Was just thinking of him a moment ago that I was so heartbroken when I first saw his picture that you posted and then to see that he got out 😭 I hope if he is caught that there's no chance he can get out again. I back out of my house and watch my cats to ensure they don't want to escape. Also, I do the same when I go to the garage and don't open the garage door until the house door is secured because I hear too many pets escaping that route. When I come home. I don't open the house door until the garage door is all the way down. I suffer in the warm weather when the AC is not on because I only open my windows about 3 in. So no cat can escape through a screen or window including my patio door. It breaks my heart everyday when there's nice weather that I hear numerous animals escaping through a screen or window. Years ago I did leave my windows open when I moved here but one day my semi-feral cat was leaning on the screen on the landing and I was horrified thinking if the screen fell out I would never see her again because she was not really catchable and at that point I decided to keep my windows open smaller than my cat's head. I hope to hear good news very soon and hope he can get back on his medicine. I was beyond grateful when I saw he was being helped and hope he can be helped again......

I'm so sorry about your foster baby.🥺💔 Most cats stay close to home or near where they were lost so it is critical to stay as proactive, and persistent, as possible. ●Crack your garage door or leave a porch door open so it can get inside. Cats return at night when you're sleeping so you miss them. This also ensures if your cat was chased away, it can sneak back inside when it can. ●Check everywhere outside even in drain pipes and drains, in logs, under bushes and cars, up in trees and anywhere it's collar could get hung. Use a flashlight after dark as it will make your cat's eyes glow. ●Check under your house and your neighbor's houses, in sheds, garages, bats, etc. ●Indoor-only or new to the area lost cats tend to not recognize their owners outside because it is a different environment and they are scared. Sit outside every single day especially in the morning and at dusk/night so your cat can get used to you being there. ●Put food in a plastic container with a lid and periodically shake it and call your cat's name. ●Print flyers for neighbors and businesses in the area. ●Put posters in public areas, like on street signs and in your front yard, and offer some type of reward, if you can. ●Put the reward amount on the flyers and posters. A reward will incite people to intentionally be on the lookout for your cat or to return it to you. ●Work with a cat rescue to immediately set a cat trap or you can purchase one at Tractor Supply, Home Depot or on Amazon and set it yourself. You will need to monitor the trap(s) ●Post on the Ring app, Nextdoor app and Pawboost and visit pet rescues/shelters in person regularly to see if someone has found your cat and has taken it to one. Give them a flyer and report your cat as missing. ●Consistently visit rescues and shelters. They only hold a cat 3 to 5 days before putting it up for adoption. Even if the cat has a microchip, the chip can float and be missed by the scanner. ●Set notification alerts for the Facebook lost and found pets groups in case someone has found your cat.
