🔺🔺MISSING CATS FIRST THINGS TO TRY🔺🔺 🔺🔺FAMILIAR smells leave outside used cat litter sprinkled around the garden, never a litter tray or other cats will use it and stop your cat coming home 🔺🔺 Trainers,, Insoles,, Slippers,Socks, Stinky cat blanket not on the ground maybe pegged on line away from other cats 🔺Please read all below and try, lost cat advice works keep repeating🔺 🔺FIRST CONSIDER WHY THEY ARE MISSING 🔺 A CAT USED TO GOING OUTSIDE: something has happened to interrupt the cat’s behaviour of coming home. Cats are territorial and do not just run away from home. Something will have spooked the cat and it has bolted out of its familiar territory and ended up in a garden it has never been in before. Cats just hide mostly when scared. They don’t just wander around. 1. A SOUND - Cats have extremely acute hearing and are naturally terrified of loud noises such as thunder, a car horn, a dog barking, a refuse lorry coming down the road emptying bins. The younger the cat the more easily they are scared by noises and bolt. 2. A LOCAL BOLD and DOMINANT CAT – will size up to a more timid cat to exert control over the territory. 4. An UN-NEUTERED MALE CAT will scare off all local cats in his endless searching over miles seeking a female. His instinct is to dominate in all territories and intimidate and fight with all local cats. INDOOR ONLY cat who has escaped is very different, it will be MUCH CLOSER to home in the first hiding space it can find. It will be terrified finding itself suddenly outside. It will hide immediately very nearby but too panicked to respond to being called. A cat NEW TO AN AREA through moving house or being re-homed will also find being outside frightening and will hide away • The majority of cats 75% were found within 500 metres (1/3 of a mile) of their home (or escape point). Indoor only cats were closest to home often up to 10 houses distance. INDOOR CATS will stay very close by hiding it is important that they have access to be able to get back in the house or a shed with bedding and food all on this list also applies 🔺🔺🔺IMPORTANT LIST OF ALL TO TRY🔺🔺🔺 CONTACT Vets within 20 mile radius, if microchipped advise company they may supply you with free posters *check details are up to date* KNOCK ON DOORS 200M radius of home ask if you can do the search of garden and outbuildings and garage look in/under behind everything lots of cats are trapped and will not come out for strangers Search Google maps where in 200m area can a cat hide or visit buildings warehouses graveyards, businesses shops building sites play areas search and poster these areas A lot of cats are eventually found within 2/3 streets away from home CHECK in Gardens/under Decking/Outbuildings under Cars Hedges up Trees Between Houses Sheds etc Cats can get wedged there and frightened cats do not make a sound Check if any neighbours have Ring or CCTV Check if any Vacant properties have they managed to get shut in Check if you or neighbours have had any deliveries has cat got into van? 🔺SEARCH late at night Early morning proven best time 2-4am it is a time of night cats feel safe and will hear you, shake treats or take some yummy smelly food with you warm roast chicken works well only call softly and carry on talking into your mobile so cat can hear your voice when walking back towards home never away so as to not drive cats further away every few steps stop and listen in case they call to you as they maybe stuck somewhere take a blanket to scoop up cat and a carrier just in case, try walking in a loop beginning and ending at home so cat can follow your scent back this has been proven to work you may have to repeat If you are away and someone is looking after your cat and they go missing also download your voice to their mobile of you softly calling and talking to your cat for them to play when looking as cat is more likely to respond to your voice 🔺 Take a torch to shine on you and not your cat take something familiar to shake, biscuits, toy with a bell SIT in your garden in the early hours when quiet and open a tin of something smelly sardines, tuna warm roast chicken put house light on sit and call softly and wait they may hear you and smell food 🔺ANY cats missing for more than 6 days will be in a state of panic and can get disoriented 🔺 ALSO 🔺He/she may be trapped …when posting flyers through doors ask people if you can search gardens outbuildings and garages if not ask people on flyers To really search in sheds, garages, summerhouses etc and behind any crates, pallets, boxes anything stashed against a wall WARN them frightened cat may stay stay still and quiet and not dash out when door is opened, ask then to leave doors open and stand aside for 10-15 minutes to allow frightened cats to come out leave open and walk away for 15mins to allow frightened cats to come out as they may not for strangers 🔺 ARE there clumps of brambles or scrub nearby where cat maybe stuck?
