*Keep trying what's listed....All the best in your beautiful cat's return,~💜💜 **Cats that get outside, they tend to panic & hide, usually close to home. When it's dark out, go outside with a flashlight or headlamp & look under every bush, vehicles anything they might go to for safety around your home. Watch for their Eyes to light up with the beam of the flashlight. Let neighbors know, they sometimes will get locked in an open shed & Put posters up. Leave out some bedding/clothing of theirs & yours, but NOT the litter box. Going out with a bag of treats OR whatever your cat loves to eat... calling their name. IF at all possible to leave a window or door open, when it's quiet many have come back. Continue looking & calling. The cat is scared & hiding & may have been chased. REPEAT, REPEAT, REPEAT If possible consider building a Catio - so much safer for kitties who like the sights/smells of outdoors. attached is one website to build, there are many - google or fb has many showing how to! https://spca.bc.ca/news/how-to-build-a-catio/

Please edit your post to include the cross streets. This important information will help you get better assistance. People need to know whereabouts to look. 💌 Record your other cat's meows to play while you search.🐈🐈‍⬛ ⚠️ Time is of the essence so getting outside ASAP is crucial.(Seriously. Like now.) ➡️ Go out OFTEN, several times, at various times of day. 🌙 Especially during the quiet hours late at night. Cats often venture out between dusk and dawn/early morning. 🔶️ BUT ANYTIME IS THE RIGHT TIME TO LOOK! ❗️ ➡️ STAY OUT for as long as you can each time. Search in ALL directions from your home. EXPAND your search area each time. 🐈‍⬛ Calmly call for or talk to her; so she doesn't hear the anxiety in your voice and stay hidden. 🟡 Use a flashlight to check for eye shine. ↪️ Look under and inside EVERYTHING. Under decks, in sheds or garages,etc. 🍤 Bring treats, tuna, toys, or a friend. 🗣 Record any other pet or favorite family to play while you search. ☑️ Pause. Listen a lot. And listen long. ➡️ Go door to door. Talk to EVERYONE. Leave a detailed note (or better yet, a flyer w/photo) on EVERY door. Ask people to check security footage.👀 💦 Put out water (and food if monitored) ✅️ Hang out her bedding and some of your unwashed items for a scent trail. ✅️ Post on Nextdoor, Pawboost, Petco and the county website. ✅️ Check Facebook for your neighborhood/area's chat group (s), there may be several. Join and post there. ✅️ Alert local veterinarians too. ✴️ Make BIG BRIGHT POSTERS for your yard and streets so passersby can be on the lookout. 💟 Being outside is key. So please spend as much time as possible out in you yard and that area. P.S. Double check that the microchip has your current information. *Also consider contacting an agency for a live trap if necessary. Prayers for your kitty's safe return.🐈 #tabbycat #graywhitetabby
