I’m so sorry your fur baby is missing. I’m posting a few tips to to help you find him, and I realize that perhaps you’ve already tried some of them. (But hopefully there’s still a point or two you’ll find helpful.) Please put his bed/blanket or an unwashed article of your clothing outside, the scent will help him find his way home. (Experienced rescues advise not to use soiled cat litter as it can attract predators and aggressive cats.) If he’s an indoor only kitty, he’s probably close but hiding. Check under the house, porches, and in sheds and garages, anywhere he may be trapped. Ask your neighbors to do the same. Ask them, too, to check their Ring cameras. If he’s not home by tonight, search under bushes and shrubs with a flashlight, his eyes will reflect the light and you'll be able to see him. Best time to search is late night and early morning when it’s most quiet outside. Call his name softly and gently shake a treat bag. Also, leave open an entrance to your home in case he comes home late at night. Post on Pawboost and Nextdoor, excellent additional resources that can assist you. If you can, put up fliers throughout your neighborhood and report him as missing to local vets. Finally, be sure to file a lost kitty report with your county shelter, Bonnie Hays Shelter 503-846-7041. Send a photo to them, if possible. Last but not least, beware of lost pet scams. They appear to be on the increase these days. All my best wishes for a speedy reunion.

Please place his bedding 🛏outside, along with the owner's unwashed clothing👚👖 front and back door 🚪with a can of tuna 🐟 on each entrance, you can leave your garage door a bit open as well. In case it comes in that way. And leaving food there as well. Also vacuumed home 🧹dirt in a stocking hanging it in front and back of home🏡 enterence . You can also add some catnip 🌱in a stocking hanging by your entrances. Show your neighbo🖼picture of the cat. Ten houses to the left ten house to the right front and back if they spot him to give you a call☎️ immediately. Go early in the ☀️morning and shake treats calling the cats name when things are quiet.. Tell neighbors to check their sheds and garage.Just in case it's trapped.. Also, you can install a camera 📹to monitor and see if the cat is around your house . Best of luck 🍀finding your kitty 🙏 ❤️🏡🐾

Ian McMeekan have you searched up in trees, under cars, in bushes? Go out late at night and early in the morning when cats are most active. Leave a way for your cat to get back in your house and place some of your clothing and/or the cats bedding outside for scent. Use a flashlight to catch eye glare at night. Shake a bag of treats if your cat knows that sound. Carry an open can of stinky wet food. Keep an eye on all lost/found pet sites. Put ads up in PetSmart on their bulletin board. Good luck!
