Call and visit your shelters and pounds. Someone could have picked your baby up. Also they can note that your kitty is missing and if she is turned in they will call you. It also doesn't hurt to call them often just in case.

I'm so sorry about your kitty. Here are some tips that helped me find my little guy when he got out. My kitty got out in the middle of winter for 11 days. I put flyers out everywhere and some very nice friends of a friend of mine saw my flyers and said he was living under their outside stairs. Flyers work. Also I was told to go out at night when it's quiet and call your kitty calmly. They are scared when outside even if it's your voice they hear so shouting or calling loudly isn't recommended. Also using a flashlight while looking in garages and bushes helps. Cats eyes glow when a light beams on them. Shaking treat bags can help too. Don't do a litterbox that can attract dangerous animals that could hurt Kitty. You can do a piece of dirty laundry of yours that they can be attached too. One more thing also is to get a humane trap from a local shelter and put the smelliest food inside. Believe it or not KFC chicken has helped attract cats more than any food lol. Also cameras can help also to see if your baby comes around when you're not home. I wish you the best of luck and hope. 💜💜💜💜🍀

Ask your local mailman if they've seen your kitty or if they can keep an eye out.

Poor poor baby prayers post some ads up around the area go out walking in the neighborhood, knocking on doors ask your local neighbors to check their garages sheds under decks under vehicles behind bushes and barns. Go out walking in the neighborhood several times during the day and several times very late at night with a flashlight, shaking a treat bag calling for your cat sometimes they get scared they hide they usually come home between the hours of 12 AM and 7 AM when it’s very quiet outside, keep your eyes on ears open prayers rewards always helps. Pull some ads up around the area. Check with local neighbors. Check with local veterinarians check with local animal, shelter, and Humane Society. Let them know you lost your cat just in case somebody finds it prayers post some ads on local lost and found pet sites. You can google these in your area such as neighbors next-door, and. Grand Rapids, MI - Lost Dogs, Cats & Pets - PawBoost you can also try putting your cats bed, blanket toys, and some of your dirty clothing from inside the house. Do not wash these items such as T-shirt, sweaters, blankets sheets, put these items out on your porch. Keep your eyes open animals have a great sense of smell change outside items every couple of days this works great for cats and dogs. This work for me and my cats several times over the years and just about four months ago it worked for me and my cat Prayers.

My cat has gotten out a few times over the last 20 years. Here are a few of the scenarios and how I got him back. one time he was stuck in a raccoon trap the neighbor's yard several houses down And my husband found him. One time he got out and was gone for 10 days before I found him around the block at night underneath a car with a flashlight, I saw his eyes. One time I found him in one of my neighbor's garages a few houses down late at night using the same flashlight technique, he was just laying in the boat that was in the back of their garage. One time he got out and was gone for a few days, I always put flyers and s locked inside a lady's garage that she hadn't been inside for a few days. Looking at night is helpful. Last year when he got out was the first time in a long time and he's old so I worried a lot, I set my alarm and got up every hour on the hour to go outside and walk around calling for him and finally he ran up at about 4:30 a.m. looking often at night is key. They usually stay close . Shake food or treats bags outside or open tins of food. My brother's cat got stuck in a tree about 40 ft up for several days. He's probably nearby and possibly stuck somewhere he cannot get out. If there's a neighborhood Facebook page posts there and put signs up around the neighborhood as well as delivering them personally to people's houses and if there are any stores nearby. Also post on for the love of Louie Facebook page and the next door app. If you have a local humane society, poundcor any place in street animal can be taken go and physically check those places as well. Put stuff that smells like your house and like your cat outside. Good luck ☺️

Cats typically stay close to home. Quiet times are the best times to look for and warch for them. Cats can become disoriented and you will need to go get them. 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. Check crawl spaces with a flashlight. I had one that was disoriented and the flashlight caught the top of his ears. I had to crawl in and get him. I have found him in a bush another time. The flashlight caught the reflection of his eyes. The vet explained to me it's because they are territorial animals and that they can become disoriented. I have found mine under my home twice, once under a low deck and even under a neighbor's car in their yard. Ask your neighbors if you might be allowed to look around for your pet. Put up flyers! Leave one in your car window. Post also on Next Door Neighbor and Pawboost. Alert shelters and local police.
