Sit something out with your scent (dirty laundry or bedding) or your cat’s scent by the area it escaped from and check frequently. There are controversies on the litter box being placed outside. Most professionals say don’t set the litter box outside, as it draws in stray and ferals in that neighborhood because they are territorial and if your cat comes out they could chase your cat away. They do not like new cats in their territory. If possible, leave a window/door open, or crack the garage door (especially overnight) to allow it to come in. Set out strong smelling wet cat food (sardines in water work great) but be careful doing this overnight, as it may attract other animals…you’ll need to check frequently for your pet’s presence. Post neon posters of your cat’s picture and your phone number to telephone poles at intersections/locations of where he was lost. Sardines in water is a great choice of food to leave out, as the smell of sardines is pungent and can be smelled from a far distance. Cats love them. Best time to look would be from dusk to dawn, the cat is going to be scared. If it’s an indoor only cat, they are usually very close or a few houses away…they're going to wait until it's quiet to move about, they might not even meow, so take a flashlight out to look for glowing eyes and use a CALM VOICE (they will pick up tension/ panic in your voice). Whatever you do at home to get them to come to you, do that outside. Check under sheds, decks, bushes, rooftops and trees…ask neighbors to check their security cameras, sheds, garages, and/or ask for permission to check their property. Indoor cats will most likely be on your property or two houses away. If you have other pets, a dog may be able to sniff out the cat…and if you have another cat, put that cat in the carrier then take it outside and sit the carrier on a step/porch while you walk around your property. Rent or buy a humane trap, ASAP! This is the best chance at retrieving your cat. Cover the top of the trap with a tarp or blanket. The ONLY food you leave out should be in that trap, behind the trip plate, towards the very back. During severe or harsh weather trap should be checked every 30 minutes . Do not leave the trap set for long periods of time unattended, especially overnight. In general, check the trap every 1-2 hours. The humane society should be able to help with this.

The best time to look for a cat is late at night after the daytime sounds settle down. Go for a walk and take a flashlite scan into the trees and under bushes. A cat can fit in any hole that they can fit their head thru they have collapsible shoulder blades. Most indoor cats stay close to home but come out at night. Most important is to make your presence known. Go out every half hour after 9pm and call for them and stop and listen it's amazing what you can hear late at night. Get your voice and scent out there. They are looking for you also. Look for glowing eyes at night. If there is a dog sibling that the cat likes take the dog on the walk. If you open canned cat food or shake treats do so on your walk. If the cat has a noisy toy shake it on your walk. Make posters and put in every business within a mile of the home. Let your mail carrier know. If there are teenagers in the neighborhood let them know they love reward money and being a hero. Check all local shelters. Let local veterinarians know your info. If there is a feral colony near you check it out. If you can find the feeder of the colony give them your info. Make large signs and put in neighbors yards at least a mile radius of the home. This ensures that everyone in the area has the info. Put post it notes on your neighbors doors to look in sheds and garages. Post on every Facebook forum in your area. Post on Pawboost and For the love of Louie. Check Humane Society. So important to make your presence known every half hour after 9pm. Make a bed out of the cats carrier and put soiled clothes from inside the home around the bed. Put it as close to the house as you can. Leave a shed or garage open check them often. Camp in your yard. Most indoor cats are found late at night. Don't give up. Do not put food out or litter it attracts every animal in the area including raccoon opossum feral cats and coyotes. Your cat will know that there is food inside and that is incentive to keep them close to the house. If you are outside that's OK but take it in when you go back in. If your cat sees a predator eating their food it might make them retreat further. Most important is to let them know you are looking for them. Hope you find your baby
