Go out late at night ie midnight and again early am ie 5 or 6 am with their smelly food and treats. Shake treat bag and call out their name. Also if you can leave a bat window and garage door open so they can get in. Do for multiple days if needed. Good luck

Create a scent station (items with your/your cat’s smell - unwashed bedding, clothing, cat tower, etc. Do NOT put out litter pan as feces often used to mark territory and may inadvertently attract predators or territorial cats.). Check it often, especially when things are quiet (late evening/early morning). Leave the garage door open 5” overnight. Check nearby Ring/security cameras in the area. Check in and under everything inside and outside with a flashlight. Cats don’t usually go far and freeze in a tight ball in very small areas when scared. The flashlight catches their eyes’ stare, especially at night. Thoroughly check inside your home, especially if this is a new/shy/scared pet. Post on NextDoor app as it covers your local neighborhoods. Be sure to check your local animal shelter in person at least every other day (can’t stress enough - in person!!! You know your pet best plus animals constantly brought in). If your cat is not spayed/neutered, may be why it is “lost” and traveling further. Hope your pet is home safe and soon. (Note: if anyone asks for money or a code as “they have your pet,” this is a scam). https://www.pawboost.com/blog/7-effective-search-tips-for-finding-your-lost-cat/ Lost cat YouTube video: https://youtu.be/g2eCoC63B9I?si=J2FOyI36PtuOzQJG

💕🙏🏻💕🙏🏻Layla ~ keep checking your area/neighborhood. Check bushes, shrubs, alleys and garages with a flashlight early morning and evenings. Talk to your neighbors and put her picture up around your neighborhood. Put her litter box out. She can smell that. I hope you find your baby ~ she’s gorgeous 🙏🏻

Oh no. I will keep a lookout. Have you tried reaching out to (@barktracker) on X/Twitter? Their swift action reunited me with my lost pet. Highly recommended!
