Hi Hopefully some of these tips will help bring your little fur baby home safe 🙏🤞 Start looking immediately! Leave your garage door open (if you have one) just enough that only she/he can fit through. Try to leave open the door or window she/he got out of if you can. If not check often around your residence. Look under sheds and decks if you have them and get neighbors to do the same. Ask neighbors to also check in their backyard and their garages and check cameras if they have them. Go out at night and in the daytime and shake dry food in a container and call her/his name. If you have a camera that you can put out, do that maybe in the front or backyard. Also look in bushes at night with a flashlight. Try putting some of your dirty laundry by the front door? Try KFC or rotisserie chicken with no bones. If you have neighbors that have cameras, maybe ask them to check them to see if she/he has been spotted. Put up flyers as everyone is not on social media I hope she/he is found safe soon. 🤞🙏

Lost Cats‼️ Indoor only cats and limited outdoor access cats never go far. They go into survival mode and hide in silence. Most of them will not respond when they are in survival mode. 3 AM is the best time to find a missing indoor only cat. This is the time they become most active and responsive. Sit and quietly call for your kitty. Try to stay low, standing is intimidating to cats. Place some dirty socks and pillow cases outside. Your scent will attract your kitty. If you have a garage, place the items near the garage door and crack the door enough for her to get in. DO NOT leave food or litter box outside, it can attract predators and aggressive Tom cats. Because indoor only cats hide so well they are not as likely to be ed by a predator. Don't give up, it can me n take months to find a missing indoor only cat. Use a flashlight as late at night as you can to look in trees, under cars and in bushes. Try to look for the glow of her eyes. The best chance of you being reunited with your cat is to do a methodical search of the area. Most indoor only cats will be within 160 feet of your home. Survival mode lasts 5 to 14 days but can last longer. Once their hunger gets to a maximum theyqq snap out of it but this is a dangerous time because they come out of hiding. The majority of cats will try to make a break for home on the 5th night. In addition to posted flyers, make mini flyers and hand them out to your neighbors. Some people don't pay attention to posted flyers. It's VERY VERY important that you look for her as late at night as you can. If you have other cats, watch them. If they are spending a lot of time looking out a certain window, that’s a good indication the missing cat is in that area. Wildlife and motion activated cameras are also helpful. a lot of people are successful trapping their indoor only cats. If you decide to trap, you must watch the trap closely, predators can a cat in a trap.
