Scatter the contents of your hoover bag around the outside boundary of your home - they can scent their way home from miles away, using the familiar smell of your home. If putting out clothing make sure that it hasn’t been washed so that it smells of “you”. Going out late at night/ early morning when it is quieter and less noise distraction around will make it easier for you to hear each other’s calls. If you are calling for him make sure you do this as you walk towards your home not away from it so that if he follows the direction of your voice you’re leading him home, not further away. Also ask any neighbours to check their sheds/ outbuildings in case he’s been inquisitive and got trapped inside somewhere. If he is an indoor cat he is likely scared and hiding somewhere very close by - look under/behind any items/objects that he may be seeking shelter from - under bushes, behind bins etc. when searching at night take a torch - the light from its beam will reflect in his eyes and you will be able to spot him even if he doesn’t respond to your calls. Put up posters in all surrounding streets and inform the microchip company that he is missing. Really hope you find him soon.

[ ] Don’t put their litter/litter trays out as this can attract other cats which may then deter your cat from returning to their territory [ ] Best time to check is 2/3am when it’s dark and quiet [ ] When you go searching always take a Torch as that will reflect the cats eyes in dark places. go searching late and early when its quiet, shake treats, call and listen and wait , cats need time to respond [ ] Look up Trees/roof tops, empty houses, church yards, cellars [ ] Look In hedges, bushes, bramble, ditches [ ] Under decking and under sheds garages, tarpaulins , behind meter box [ ] Behind bins and under cars in case injured [ ] Down any steep embankments, rabbit holes, ponds, drains, water butts [ ] Gaps In between fences and buildings, [ ] Ask people to leave sheds garages open a while to give a trapped cat time to escape as they wont just run out, they hide in fear [ ] When searching in bushes etc,get down to cat level as its easier to see them or use walking sticks upside down for ease, using the L ....shaped handle ....for moving bushes aside to gently search [ ] Put posters up and leaflet houses [ ] Check any CCTV/ring door bells and ask neighbors to check also, see if he was picked up or got in a vehicle [ ] Put familiar smells out, , blanket, empty hoover contents in garden [ ] Hang your used unwashed bed sheets out, t shirts, smelly socks [] Make sure there is a way for your cat to get back in your house, even when you are asleep, maybe wedge open the cat flap, or leave a window open [] Ask postman to keep a look out, let him have a leaflet, they go to most houses daily [] Contact all vets in the area, the local council, cat rescues and microchip company to let them know and flag them up as missing [] Contact ‘Harvey’s Army North’ on Facebook who will make you a poster with all the relevant information on that you can then share and post through letterboxes and on lampposts [] Share with all local vets/councils/rescues in the area asking them to put it up in their reception/offices [] Also put them on the Nextdoor app and PawBoost.
