including trapping advice if necessary
If you ever “lose” an indoor cat,
chances are he is nearby. Just scared. Call softly and listen carefully especially between 10 pm and dawn when things are quiet. Also use a flashlight as their eyes will reflect back to you from the dark.

Some say put your cat’s litter pan outside as the dirty cat litter help your kitty back home. Others say this will attract other predators that will chase away your cat or worse.Read More
First it is suggested that you crack your windows open as the one thing an indoor cat knows is the smell of their house.
Second, when an indoor cat gets out they are usually very close to their home - usually a couple of hundred feet. They will find some place to hunker down and stay there until they are hungry or thirsty. They will come out in the middle of the night (not at dawn or dusk when predators may be around). Do not leave lights on as cat may feel more secure venturing out when it is darker.
It is also suggested if it is safe to do so to leave door that tge cat got out of cracked opened with a bowl of water and bowl of smelly food like tuna inside door with camera on the door that will alert you when there is any movement.
Put out an article of your unwashed clothing and bedding- they can recognize the scent and it may help them find their way home. Indoor cats do not travel far they may be hiding nearby- check under porches, bushes and even under a parked car. If you call her/him, call gently- do look while it's dark and quiet- - Put flyers with photo and decent reward in your local Stewarts; post on Steve Caparizzo's FB page and your neighborhood Nextdoor app as well as Pawboost asap! Notify your neighbors!! Let the animal shelter and the own animal control officer know as well. Post a flyer with the cat's picture and a reward in local Stewart's etc. If someone has picked them up, seeing the flyer with a reward may motivate them to return the kitty to you. All that helped me get my boy back.
I will pray for your cat’s safe return real soon! 🙏🙏🙏🙏Read More
Most lost cats come home/ are found between 2-5 am so that’s a good time to look. Door to door with flyers in the area and flyers with nearby vets and shelters really helps. If sighted, It’s better not to chase, lost cats are even more skittish and spooked outside and will even run from their owners. If possible, it’s better to sit at ground level and talk in a normal voice, which will bring them closer to you. Even better, bring some food, smellier the better - tuna, shrimp, rotisserie chicken. If you can safely leave a door or window cracked open specially at night, the cat might walk back in. They can get locked by mistake in sheds garages and basements, ask neighbors to check and if they can leave doors open for a while. A frightened cat in hiding probably won’t come out when people are around.Read More
