Message from Owner

Hello! Our cat Maui snuck out the door on August 15th, he is an indoor cat, he has gotten out once before at our old place and returned home on his own after 4 days. This time around he has not been spotted, we haven’t tried literally everything to find him, we even bought a thermal camera, but have had no luck finding him. He is the sweetest boy but is probably extremely scared and skittish right now. We have been walking everywhere all night for days now and have had no luck finding him. The first night he came home a few times we saw him on the camera, but since then we have not had spotting of him. We have a camera set up facing the exit point he left. We have a lot of woods in the area, we live in an apmt complex with a patio on the back bottom floor. We have a lot of raccoons in the area that have come at night because we unexpectedly put his food out. We are praying he comes back, he is around 1 1/2 years old.

Joyce Clouse I did this with the garage door slightly open and opened the cellar door. I put blankets that had cat scents by the garage door opening and food inside. He came inside.

I just want to share this with you. My cat Snoopy got out on a Friday night and I immediately set a trap. On Sunday, I bought a second trap. I checked the two traps after 6 am Monday morning. No luck. Monday night for the first time, I left the garage door open slightly enough for my cat Snoopy to get in and I left the cellar door open. I left the lights off in the garage and cellar, except for a light in a separate room. I put 2 blankets by the garage door entrance that Snoopy slept on. I kept all my other cats upstairs. After checking the traps with no luck, I went downstairs and I heard something and then found Snoopy in the cellar. My other cats went down to greet him. I am so grateful that Snoopy is home.

Some time ago, my young cat snuck out late. I called him and put out a trap, but he didn't come. In the morning, I went out and made cat sounds like he does because he doesn't meow. I then heard him respond and found him hunkered down beside the air conditioner. He must have been very scared all night. He was only about 20-25 feet from my back door. I copied the following messages from other people giving advice on finding lost cats. If Indoor Fixed Kitties:Some time ago, my young cat snuck out late.

I copied the following messages from other people giving advice on finding lost cats. If Indoor Fixed Kitties: Indoor fixed kitties rarely go far and are usually found hiding scared nearby. Look under everything...porches, decks, sheds, cars, bushes, etc. Look at night and into the wee hours of the morning with a flashlight to see eyes glowing. Ask/tell neighbors. Flyers = sightings. Consider using a humane trap ASAP. Please no litter box outside because it can attract predators and potentially keep your kitty from returning. Prayers for a safe return. If you're able you can also try leaving a door, garage door or window cracked open to let kitty come back in. A video doorbell or trail camera can be helpful to see if kitty is coming around when you're sleeping. Honestly - the magic time is 11pm-6am in spring/summer (8pm-6am in fall/winter) - when no humans are outside. That is when they feel comfortable coming out of hiding. Sit on steps/porch by where cat escaped - talk softly. Let cat come to you. Avoid eye contact. Lost pets will not act "normally" - they are in survival mode.
