Be Proactive and Aggressive in your search. Act Fast. Sometimes people wait, mistakenly thinking cat will just come home on their own. Don’t give up. Cats usually stay within a 5 House Radius. Indoor cats don’t usually go far. They get scared and try to be quiet. They could be hunkering down in nearby bushes, under decks/porches, crawlspaces etc. Go out before dusk, dawn and again in the quiet middle of the night hours. Loudly crack open a can of cat food. Look in garages/sheds, rafters, trees and drainage pipes in ditches. Look in the same places you already did again and again because cats will move to different nearby places if spooked. I’ve had people say they found their cat in a place they looked at a few times. Place a humane trap with stinky food in it on your property or ask neighbors if you can put one on theirs. If you have a dog, use their strong sense of smell taking them for a walk around the neighborhood and your home. Alert neighbors and ask to look on their property and garages/sheds, under sheds too if obvious holes dug by animals. Go out in the quiet of night with a High Lumens Tactical LED flashlight looking for glowing eyes. Sit out in the quiet of night and read a book out loud in a calm and soothing voice. Shake noisy cat toy or treats. Keep garage slightly open with cats bed/blanket and articles of owners unwashed items. Also check thoroughly indoors, dresser drawers, linen closets, totes, under couches lining, cupboards, basement etc.. Large Neon posters at intersections with limited writing so passing vehicles can read quickly otherwise how would someone who isn’t on social media and might have seen or taken in your cat know some is looking. Physically go to shelters and leave info every couple days. Leave info at local veterinarian offices. Also post on Facebook pages, For The Love Of Louie Michigan Lost Pet Lookers & Local Facebook groups. Also post on your local Nextdoor app and the Pawboost app, they will send out email alerts to members and will also post on local Facebook Lost and Found Pets groups. Good Luck. Get home safe and Sound Joe 🙏🏻❤️
