Just remember cats that don’t go out on a normal basis and get out by accident are the ones that always try to get back in when it’s quiet in the middle of the night so if you can make it a way for that to be possible if you’re not up, that would be highly advisable otherwise I’ll just turn around and go hide

Put pieces of your clothing outside and go outside and shake a bag of his favorite treats esp at night and early morning calling his name.

Lost cat Protocol Cats are usually close by. When cats escape they are usually afraid. Therefore, they normally, hunker down and hide very close to home. They will usually only venture out a short way if they in don’t find a food source. Once they find food, they will normally stay in that area. Most cats are creatures of habit and will keep coming back to the place they find food. You need to search for the cat nightly using an LED flashlight. This is important!!! It must be a bright LED flashlight. 400 lumens or stronger. (This is VERY IMPORTANT!) You can get one at Harbor Freight or WalMart for about 15.00. A regular flashlight isn’t bright enough. It has to be LED and at least 400 lumens. Go out nightly. Especially later when it gets very quiet. 12 AM or later around 2 AM is a good time. That is when cats prowl. Also, before dawn. Look for glowing green eyes. All cats eyes will glow green at night when you use an LED flashlight. Sometimes you have to bend down to catch the glow of the eyes at a certain angle. You must look under cars, in bushes, street gutters, etc. Anywhere at all they can hide. Do not call the cat’s name. That can spook them. Also, do not chase if seen. Many cats will go into survival mode or what’s called fight or flight mode and won’t even come to their owners. Get down on ground level and gently coax them to you patting the ground softly. Have some smelly canned food or shake a bag of treats. Have a carrier handy to put kitty into if it walks up to you. There’s a good possibility you might need to use a humane trap to catch your cat. Be consistent and do this nightly with the LED flashlight. I can’t stress this enough!! Also, you should set up a feeding station with a trail cam on it. I would set that up by the area the cat got out. Or, the last place they were seen hanging out. The trail cam will give you the capability to see if the cat is coming to eat. If so, you can set a humane trap baited with Mackerel in brine. It’s sold by the canned tuna in stores. It’s in a large can usually with the blue label. Your cat also might come back home looking for a way to get back in. If you can leave a window open that would be good. Also listen for the cats meow in case it’s trying to get back in at your front door. We have found many missing cats this way and some missing for a long time. Most importantly I can’t stress this enough, cats usually try to get back in their house late at night when everything‘s quiet so you need to have some kind of access window open a door open a camera that will alert you because if they can’t find a way back in, they’re just gonna leave and hide again. But you have to keep looking don’t depend on other people to do it. Also, I would like to add certain people think that playing kitten sounds will make your cat come out or shining a laser toy on the ground will make it come out of hiding, but a lost cat is scared and in no mood to play and unless it’s a new mother kitten sounds is not gonna work they are in survival mode, not a playful mode.
