Message from Owner

Please help me find my baby. He’s easily scared and it breaks our heart to think he is alone and scared. Any tips would help to also bring him back home. Thank you so much.

Sandy Johnston, thank you for the detailed advice and the helpful link🙏🏽I have made a plan to search for him with a friend with food in hand and a flashlight this upcoming morning. I have laid out some of his items and hope we will cross paths when I go out to search. Extremely grateful for your support, thank you so much.

Ruthmaria Cummings, thank you so, so much for your effort and support. It means a lot to be part of a community that cares and provides such helpful advice. I have put some of his blankets outside and some of my own clothing as well. I hope he comes back soon, I cannot imagine how lonely and scared he must be. Again, I’m grateful for your kindness to a stranger seeking help. Thank you so much!

Do this immediately.....Put something with his scent on it and put it on the on the porch. Walk your neighborhood and call him, do it again as late as possible (they suggest 3 am). He won’t come out right away, even when he hears you, he will only come out of hiding when he feels it’s safe. They’re usually only 3-5 houses away hunkered down somewhere. If possible leave your garage door or another door or window open enough for him to get in during the night. 🙏https://youtu.be/g2eCoC63B9I

Get outside early early morning when it's dark and quiet and still. Call his name!
