Christine Thompson give flyers to every vet clinic, rescue, and shelter in the area and between your house and where you think he may have traveled - having his picture in their hands will help keep him at the forefront of their minds. Good luck ❤️

Talk softly when calling late night and during the night to early morning when it quite out .. Might wait in between to see if you hear them meow nearby .... For indoor cats if there is any way you could leave your door garage door or window slightly ajar if possible they know where they got out and will often come back in on their own .. If you didn't see them get out check deep dresser drawers, kitchen and bathroom cabinets, under beds in box springs, behind the frig, the stove, behind or under the sofa, under or in the recliner the washer/dryer or inside if left open .. bat crawl space .. attic .. anywhere small or behind a cat can hide they will! If out cats will hide during the day and are more active late evening near dark to early morning , daybreak ... have a spot light to shine to see eyes in the dark .. they are usually close by and will often come back to the door .. or hide under bushes or decks to feel safe ! Also check crawl spaces under houses , garages, sheds of neighbors nearby ...No food out after dark it will attract area strays and wildlife to the area ... check culvert pipes .. storm drains .. up trees .. and colder weather they will get under car hoods for warmth and on tires also ...this can happen and they could be miles from home . Cats in a new home need at least 30 days to adjust to a new area and may and will travel to get back to their old home .. In some cases a set trap may be needed and monitored! A Trail cam or night vision goggles can help to monitor the areas outside! Post to Nextdoor Ask neighbors to check their Ring Doorbells... Beware of loose and roaming dogs in the area as they will chase and your cats! For automatic garage doors please place a 6x6 block or cinder block so that the door will not come all the way down and trap your pet as they can be injured! Check with area Shelters, Animal Control, and Vets offices also put flyers ... Am sure you have tried most all of these! Don't give up!!

Christine Thompsonthank you for having him neutered and microchipped ❤️ How far is it from your house to your husband's work? Did you register the chip online? If so, contact the chip company and tell them that he's missing. If not, register the chip online and then tell them that he's missing. Make sure your contact info is up-to-date on their website. If you haven't already, put up flyers everywhere in your neighborhood and all the way from your house to your husband's work. Give flyers to every vet clinic, rescue, and shelter in your area and all the way to Charlotte in case he turns up. Having his picture in their hands will help keep him at the forefront of their minds. Ask everyone in your neighborhood to check their cameras, garages, sheds, and crawlspaces. Look up in trees in case he was chased coming home. Walk the neighborhood in the wee hours with a flashlight and look for glowing eyes. Call him in a regular voice (not panicked) and gently shake a treat bag if he likes that kind of stuff. If he's still in the neighborhood, he's probably hunkered down and hiding, but he may not answer you when you call. That's just instinctual, as a vocal cat gives away their location to predators. Put his beds/ blankets and some of your dirty clothes on your porches and around the perimeter of your yard. Good luck and don't give up hope ❤️

Suzy Creamcheese He is neutered and indoor only. He does have a microchip, but he got it when he was a kitten so I'm worried that it may have migrated. A little more info. We didn't notice that he wasn't in the house right away and we think he hitched a ride in my husband's work truck and that he could be all the way in Charlotte.

Is he neutered? Microchipped? Indoor only, or indoor/outdoor?
