I’m so sorry your baby is missing! Here are some suggestions to help find your baby…… indoor cats are in survival mode and are frightened, they will hide……and hide very well so PLEASE check every where often….especially at night.
Report it to ANIMAL CONTROL as well as Vets and SHELTERS with a picture incase they are brought in injured or for a chip check. Include Groomers and Pet Stores
Put up lots and lots of FLYERS!!! Give to neighbors, attach to mailboxes, put up at stores, library, grocery stores everywhere! Give to your postal carrier they see animals all the time!!
Sit outside and read a book out loud, the sound of your voice can lure him/her back if he’s close by.
Please create a free account at petfbi.org/report.html
This account will send out an alert that s/he is missing, and send you an alert if anyone were to report a cat found near that location. That account could help get your cat back home too.
Put on Facebook lost pets page in your town/state etc..and on your LOCAL TOWN PAGE !! Also on the Nextdoor site.
Check trees, under, in and behind things in your yard and others often. Make your neighbors aware. Please check yours and neighbors garages, sheds, porches, barns, bats and under and in vehicles !!
Cats like to come out @ night so leave A LIGHT ON THE PORCH WITH FOOD and IT'S BEDDING near a CRACKED OPENED DOOR OR WINDOW FOR ENTRY....
It’s not recommended to put out litter boxes as it could be used by another cat which could DETER return or bring in a predator such as coyotes…..
Use a camera or baby monitor to watch for his /her return, using a havaheart trap with tuna to catch them as well as an unlaundered piece of your laundry. If u put food out be very careful and monitor very closely as it can attract predators . You can borrow a trap from animal control or cat rescue. The ACO or a rescue can help u on how to trap a cat. U must never leave trap unattended . U can purchase one at Lowe’s or Home Depot.
If there are sightings set up a feeding station And camera at sighting area, then when he is spotted On camera u can trap him. Make a shelter for him/her here’s a video….. only use STRAW

It can be helpful to use a flashlight at night to spot its eyes ! Look around shrubs, under cars, decks, porches, in garages, sheds, up in trees, in yours and neighbors yards.
Calling for it several times a day and shaking treats, indoor cats can become disoriented..calling out helps in RECOGNIZING YOUR VOICE AND DIRECTION!! Your cat is in survival mode and may not act as they usually did, he is afraid.
Please DO NOT give up !!
Continue to check & recheck EVERYWHERE. Monitor Facebook, Craigslist and nextdoor sites for found cats.
Cats have been found several years after….. don’t give up, keep the faith and keep looking!!!
