Cats typically stay close to home. Go out when it's quiet and take a flashlight and a favorite toy or treat to shake when calling for them. Be prepared to crawl into a space to get them. Cats can become disoriented and you will need to go get them. Check crawl spaces with a flashlight. I had one that was disoriented that the flashlight caught the top of his ears. I had to crawl in and get him. I've found him in a bush another time. The flashlight caught the reflection of his eyes. I had to literally crawl into places for one of mine. The vet told me it's because they are territorial animals and can become disoriented. Put up flyers and ask neighbors if you might be allowed to look around for your pet. I have found mine under my home twice, once under a low deck, in bushes and even under a neighbor's car in their yard.

Aww poor little baby prayers post some ads up around the area ASAP. Check with local neighbors go out walking the neighborhood knocking on doors rewards always helps check with local veterinarians check with local animal shelter and Humane Society. Post a ad on neighbors, next-door and craigslist and for the love of Louie and paws boost go outside several times during the day and several times very late at night shaking a treat bag calling for your cat. They usually stay close to home. They usually come home between the hours of 12 AM and 6 AM when it’s very quiet outside keep your eyes and ears open. You can also try putting in your catsbed, blanket toys and some of your dirty clothing from inside the house. Do not wash these items. Put these items out on your porch. Keep your eyes open animals have a great sense of smell change outdoor items every couple of days. This works great for cats and dogs. This works for me and my cat prayers rewards always helps.

🔻 🔻 Can you or Have you set a Humane live trap? MUST BE MONITORED CLOSELY Cover the trap to block wind, rain, snow, sun. An old throw rug or towel with the scent of home is helpful. Large paper leaf bags work as well,trap fits in nicely 🐾 Alert all neighbors and ask to check sheds,garages, under decks, bushes, even old dog houses. If possible place pets bed in garage with food and something that smells like home. Leave garage door up just enough to allow entry for kitty. 🐾 Sharing 🔴 PLEASE USE CAUTION DURING INCLEMENT WEATHER, TRAP SHOULD BE MONITORED EVERY 15 MINUTES for the well being of the animal ☺️
