Indoor cat, got out last night. Is an apprehensive cat so will hiss if feels unsafe. Don’t think he could have gone far

General Information: Indoor cats are usually close to home. They are afraid of all the new unfamiliar noises they hear outside and are probably hiding. First - Check any and all hiding places in your home - closets, under side of mattress. Hang clothes with your scent on it (Worn clothing from owner) high up outside so the familiar scent can travel and guide the cat back home. NOT A CAT BOX OR FOOD. Ask your neighbors to check their yard/could be accidently stuck in their garage or shed. (If applicable) Check doorbell or home camera - or ask neighbors to check their camera. Post Fliers with a picture of the cat and your contact information in the area the cat went missing. Not everyone is on Social Media and posters have worked in that if spotted a location can be provided. If a cat is scared they make themselves safe by finding a good hiding spot and often times hide in silence. Look in bushes - bring a flashlight and look for shining eyes. Best time to find your cat is in the early morning hours when the noise level is low and they feel safe. Leave an access point open for the cat to return. This is important if they do come back in the middle of the night. Prayers your cat returns/ or is found safely. Beware of scammers.

Thank you all for the advice. I've left items he would recognize around the house. It's been hard to search the nearby houses because there are so many bushes and bins and whatnot. I've been talking to my neighbors so hopefully that helps. If time starts to pass and we can't find him, what are the chances a kind stranger takes him to the vet? He's microchipped, and I've called ahead to let them know.

You can post to Lost and Found Pets of Salem Oregon at: https://www.facebook.com/share/1K94NUUiTV/ Put up fliers right away. Put your pet's bed and a piece of your clothing from the dirty laundry where you last saw him/her so if your pet comes back they will smell it and stick around. You could also leave food and drink. When you get your pet back, you might want to consider getting an Apple Airtag to put on its collar so you can immediately see where they are. I got one from Amazon for my cat and it tracks her anywhere she goes. When it gets dark, take a flashlight around the area where you live and call them repeatedly, look in trees, bushes, under porches and decks, and alert the neighbors. If they like treats, take the treat can and shake it. After our cat went missing for 2 days, we found her in a tree at our neighbor's house. Big dogs were in the yard so she couldn't get down. Indoor cats usually stay within 3 to 5 houses around you.

Beautiful cat! They don’t go far at first. Usually run and hide under something like near by bushes. They will stay there for a day or two before moving on to another hiding spot. They move around early morning or late at night. When it’s very quiet.

Put things with familiar scents on them around the outside of your home. Also try putting some dry treats in a container and shaking around where kitty was lost. Prayers beautiful
