Create a scent station (items with your/your cat’s smell - unwashed bedding, clothing, cat tower, etc. Especially important if cat is in new/unfamiliar area. Do NOT put out litter pan as feces often used to mark territory and may inadvertently attract predators or territorial cats.). Check it often, especially when things are quiet (late evening/early morning). Leave the garage door open 5” overnight. Check nearby Ring/security cameras in the area. Check in and under inside and outside with a flashlight. Cats don’t usually go far and freeze in a tight ball in very small, tight, dark areas when scared. The flashlight catches their eyes’ stare, especially at night. Thoroughly check inside your home, especially if this is a new/shy/scared pet. Post on NextDoor app as it covers your local neighborhoods. Be sure to check your local animal shelter in person at least every other day (can’t stress enough - in person!!! You know your pet best plus animals constantly brought in). If your cat is not spayed/neutered, may be why it is “lost” and traveling further. Hope your pet is home safe and soon. (Note: if anyone asks for money or a code as “they have your pet,” this is a scam). https://www.pawboost.com/blog/7-effective-search-tips-for-finding-your-lost-cat/ https://petfbi.org/i-lost-a-cat/tips-to-lure-a-cat-back-home-2/

[KL] I'm so sorry about your missing kitty, but cats are great survivors, and most lost pets do survive, so try to stay positive. I'm involved with lost pet rescue, and I'd like to share some information with you. Firstly, please don't respond to anyone posting about pet trackers that you contact on instagram. They are scammers! Just so you know, I respond to hundreds of lost & found pet postings every month, so I can't customize these for everyone. If you've done some or all of these things already, great! Put some water and food outside, especially some stronger smelling canned food or tuna, preferably inside of a fenced area and in view of a security camera, if possible. Sometimes, lost kitties will come back at night and eat. You can also put food and water inside a garage, leaving a door cracked, but be careful. Some other critters and undesirable people could get in. You can also set up a remote camera, and if you see your cat, then you can go out and wait for your kitty to show up again another night. Inside kitties who get lost usually don't go far, but can go into hiding, especially if they are already skittish or traumatized, or they can get accidentally get locked into neighbor's sheds and garages. Walk the area, especially early morning or at night when it's quiet out and call for your kitties, maybe shaking a box of your kitty's favorite treats, then just stop and listen for an answer. Even if very verbal, sometimes lost and injured kitties are too scared to answer, which is a survival Instinct, but if it's quiet out, they may. Because cats are allowed to roam in most of Colorado, most people don't pay attention to kitties on the loose, so be sure to hand out flyers to all of your neighbors within at least 2-3 blocks, and put up large neon posters at every major intersection in your neighborhood. Also, post on other social media lost and found pet websites, and neighborhood social media sites, and check with animal control, vets, and shelters in your area. Use pictures of your kitty standing up to show coloration, coat patterns, and markings. It may become necessary to set a live trap with the assistance of a lost pet rescue, but you need confirmed sightings. Let me know if you need help with this. If your kitty is allowed to roam, please consider keeping it indoors when it returns home. You can even build or buy a catio to give to your kitty safe exposure to the outside. For the last 50 years, all my indoor kitties have lived happy, healthy, and long lives. There are so many things that can happen to a roaming cat, including being hit by a car, wild predators, poisons, being trapped someplace, and being victims of very evil people. They can also be a real nuisance to neighbors and their pets, and contribute to the feral cat population problem, especially if they are not neutered or spayed. The average lifespan of a roaming cat is only about 5 years. Please don't give up! About 75% of lost pets are found, and the reason most of the others are not is because the families just stop looking. Hope this info helps you get your kitty home safe and sound. My heart goes out to you! ❤️

Please post cross streets. Get out calling Kitty's name especially early and late when it's quiet. Search for the flashlight high and low. Put up posters with number large enough to be seen while driving. And post on nextdoor com
