I’m so sorry you haven’t found your sweet kitty YET...Replace FLYERS on lamppost and post up more FLYERS several blocks out in all directions. Do you have a MINI BLINK camera aimed at wet food you're leaving day and night by the escape door (or inside the garage door left open 5" if he got out from the front)? If you're not sure which side kitty escaped then leave food in the front and back and use 2 cameras they're $35 on amazon. Every day I get texts from folks who are amazed at spotting their SHY cat on camera eating the food then running off to hide again after because they are in survival mode... some will finally come out of hiding LATE NIGHT after their human calls out 400 times in a calm calm voice...don't give up! Keep taking action. Ask neighbors to check their RING cameras again - we've had lost cats spotted on RING cameras so many times but neighbors won't check unless they know you're kitty is missing and i find that talking to neighbors is best because most do not understand that SHY cats hide from everyone! They think if they don't see the cat during the day then there is no way kitty is visiting their yard but that's not the case! Cats get active late night..once you spot him on camera THEN the next night you can set a trap and watch it by using a baby monitor. you can buy one on amazon for overnight delivery - you really need these tools to help you find your kitty when it comes to a shy cat. Replace old flyers and talk to neighbors again...offer a reward for a photo of your kitty - you don't want folks to approach kitty once spotted - but you want a photo to make sure it's kittymode continue to hide from humans and they search for food at night. I’m so sorry for the terrible worry and stress ..hang in there...remain hopeful … keep talking to your neighbors. 🙏
DON”T GIVE UP ❤️
The biggest mistake I have learned in the last 5 years finding lost cats is people thinking the cat is getting taken care of somewhere when the cat is doing it's best to survive and they stop taking action..no more flyering..no huge posters. no talking to neighbors again..they stop searching at night .. you must do the opposite! Your sweet kitty needs to be spotted and the best way is to lure with wet food and get another neighbor to do the same - must have a camera aimed or you won't know who is eating the food. Even cats that have been with their guardian 15 years WILL HIDE FROM EVERYONE ..Lost cat Sonia was found after 8 weeks - the guardians finally started aiming a camera at the wet food they were leaving out every AM and PM and finally spotted her a week later then trapped her using a humane trap I lent. Other folks Created BILLBOARDS using vinyl and tape and huge photos of their cat - or kept FLYERING 1 block at a time…AND THAT - was what ultimately got their cat spottted . Don't give up. I"M so sorry for all the stress and worry...kitty is out there..needs your consistent action sending this messsage with only love in my heart - damia
