Look at night with a flashlight while calling her name. Look especially under bushes and in neighbors yards garages and sheds. Look up in trees, Leave something outside with her scent on it like her bedding. Leave something outside with your scent on it like an unwashed piece of clothing. Leave out smelly cat food. Hang signs with her photo. Call and visit local shelters and veterinary offices. Good luck!🍀

IF YOUR CAT GETS OUT 🐾📌 Please Take Our Tips: TAKE OUR SUGGESTIONS NO MATTER HOW CRAZY THEY SOUND TO YOU Put a pile of unlaundered clothing, bedsheets , pillowcases and socks in your lawn...and hang some from your fence/bushes. Empty the contents of used litter box and household vacuum cleaner bag/canister across the lawn. Leave bowls of smelly food out - tuna/sardines, rotisserie or Kentucky fried chicken Turn on BBQ - cook hot dogs and bacon. SCENT IS EVERYTHING !! Do these things right now! FLIERS MUST GO UP ASAP TO GET SIGHTINGS. Every pole/tree/neighbors stoops/porches. Offer reward. Give fliers to mailman, UPS drivers, fed ex drivers, etc. Local supermarket, dry cleaners, drug store should have a flier. Call local precinct and report the cat as lost. Ditto for shelters. You must visit shelters - the person on the phone doesn't know every pet brought in. Delegate to friends so that you get the posters up ASAP!!!! Go out searching, especially when it's dark and quiet - early AM and later in evening. Carry tuna and heated Kentucky Fried Chicken for scent. Bring a bag of treats to shake when you call out its name and then just stop and listen for faint meowing. We've recently reunited cats that were stuck in neighbor's sheds/garages! Look under bushes, in/behind sheds, or neighbor's porches with flashlight. It'll make the cat's eyes glow so you can spot it. Don't drive around! If your cat is an indoor only cat, it hasn't travelled more than 2-4 blocks away. Look on your neighbor's properties. Written by Josephine Chianetta This is from a study that was done on lost cats: Cats are very different from dogs when panicked. They are territorial and your cat’s territory was inside of your home. Once a cat is transplanted into unfamiliar territory, fear sets in and it seeks shelter because it is afraid. They panic immediately and look to hide usually near the escape point or within a 5-house radius of their home where they've never been before. Cats that are afraid (and cats that are injured) will seek areas of concealment such as under a deck, under a house, under a porch, or in heavy brush and they will not meow! Panicked cats hide in silence. Silence is their only protective measure from predators. They can stay concealed for days, sometimes weeks! Just because you don’t see or hear your cat DOES NOT mean he or she is not right there, hiding in fear from the loud noises, etc. they will not meow! Meowing would give up their location to a predator. Their behavior has nothing to do with whether the cat loves you, whether it recognizes your voice, or whether it can smell you–it has everything to do with the fact that a frightened cat will hide in silence! The Threshold Factor: This is an interesting behavioral pattern that Missing Pet Partnership has observed with displaced cats. Many of these cats initially hide in silence, but eventually break cover and meow, return to their home or the escape point (window or door), or finally enter a humane trap. While some cats take only hours or a few days to reach their threshold, many others take several days (typically ten to twelve days) before they break cover. We suspect the threshold is reached due to their thirst, although more research needs to be conducted into this behavior. In an attempt to capture your cat, use humane traps in your yard or in your neighbor’s yard where your cat is likely hiding in fear. If you choose not to, place small amounts of cat food (and water) and hopefully you’ll eventually be able to determine where the cat is hiding. Written by Donna Harmon McNeff

📌🐾 📣 Open Escape for Reentry‼️Contain other pets. 👉⭐️ Keep point of escape open for reentry with a can of smelly food inside of house. •Kitty might try to get back in from either fear, hunger, thirst, weather or comfort. •If still nearby, keep looking and listening for meowing. 👉Return: I’m noticing a pattern of return around 3am - 6am where they’re trying to find a way back inside their home. 👉Alternative Opening: If you can’t leave an opening in your home for reentry and you have a garage, open the door about 6 inches up with food and water placed in back of room or find some place where cat may shelter and leave food (lamb chop seems to entice) & water there. Use camera to view. 👉Time is crucial: Cats usually stick closer to home, but could end up over a mile away. 👉 Seeking Shelter: During the winter months cats may look for a place to keep warm and they’ll want to seek out shelter from the rain, cold and snow. 👉Search Immediately! If cat is an indoor cat it should hopefully be very near still and hiding in fear. •Look under bushes, under porches, under decks, especially under sheds, including any small place they can crawl into & corners they can back into, look in-between fences, check car engines, on top of car tires & under cars, look up in the trees and on roof tops, in window wells, nearby sewers, garages, in and behind garages and sheds and neighboring properties. Look in all corners of the above and under items in those places. Most of the time they back themselves into a corner and remain quiet, even to you because they’re scared. •Listen for the slightest noise of movement and move items around and use a flashlight looking for glowing eyes. •Search when it’s quiet, early in the morning and when it’s dark with a flashlight for glowing eyes, shaking a bag of treats while calling out their name and then stop and listen for faint meowing. •Try a Cat Meowing App and playing it in hopes it draws out the cat. •Some cats hide at the house directly behind the house cat was missing from. •Use a night vision motion detector video camera with sound that sends notifications to your cell phone. Aim outside at each door, where food is placed and at the humane trap, if using. Types of cameras: Ring, Arlo or anything else that records. 👉Scent- Put used litter box outside. Plenty of people have told me their cats returned shortly after placing the litter box either outside, in garage or another enclosure and I stand by this. •Empty contents of vacuum bag orter your unlaundered items such as socks, pillowcases, something cat laid on, etc. to attract lost cat. •Leave smelly food near where you want them to return. Example: tuna, sardines, mackerel, chicken, lamb or treats. Bbq hot dogs, bacon or chicken sending the aroma throughout the air. •Trackers: Pet Trackers may offer assistance via phone of what to do next and or in-person with a tracking dog. 👉Shelter- Place near where cat escaped adding straw (not hay), some catnip inside and spread some on a toy. Throw toy in back of shelter and watch to see if it’s taken out and played with. 👉Capture/Trapping- Ask for experienced help on groups that trap, handle strays and TNR. **Important: A live trap must never be left set overnight or unattended ‼️ Opossums and raccoons can easily enter the unattended traps instead of your cat and harm themselves ripping out their teeth and nails. Then after being trapped, they’re released wounded and toothless. •If you choose not to use a trap, place small amounts of cat food & water out and hopefully you’ll eventually be able to determine where the cat is hiding. 👉More Exposure! •Post on & join all lost groups of Facebook •Post on Neighbors Ring App or on Neighbors Ring website. It alerts the community in radius of up to 5 miles around your home anonymously. •Post on Next Door App or on Next Door website. •Post on Lost My Kitty website (they send out emails about kitty & you remain anonymous). •If microchipped, notify chip company & they’ll send out alerts. •Flyers: Keep it simple! No one needs to know why, how, your pet's habits or about the family. Only Include: photo of pet (recent cropped with only that pet missing) name of pet date last seen cross streets & town phone number Print at least 100 copies. Cover in plastic. Get helpers & post on trees, poles, at supermarkets, pet supply stores, pharmacies, hang on your car, etc. •Handout flyers to Mail Carriers, Amazon Drivers, Fed Ex Drivers, UPS Drivers, Newspaper Delivery person, Crossing Guards, Veterinary groups, Shelters, Groomers, Police Precinct, Town Highway Division, etc. •Enlarge a flyer, wrap in plastic, post on front lawn so drivers and walkers can see it. 👉Animal Shelters- Go in person everyday to check and see for yourself because employees may not know of all the pets that were brought in.

So she knows her way around the area to find her way home? Flyers are helpful for a sighting. ***Very important …. Flyers are effective in getting the message out about your missing animal . Many people aren’t on Facebook; don't know about local lost and found Facebook pages, etc. so cover all your bases. Post flyers everywhere …. Put on / not in mailboxes / under door mats .. and polls in your surrounding area in at least a three block radius in case someone sees or starts feeding your animal or sees them on their ring/camera. Also give one to the mail person … they’re in your area each day and might have a sighting. Ask neighbors to check their yards … Knock on doors ….ask for help. Sent from my iPad
