Beautiful kitty! If he is an indoor only cat, or new to an area, he is hiding very nearby where he was last seen. The good news is indoor cats are always found you just need to look everywhere! Look very quietly and discreetly with a flashlight even during the day. If you didn’t see him jump, he could be hiding inside, so look in fireplaces, under furniture, behind appliances, in closets, drawers and cupboards. Then broaden your search outside under the fire escape where you think he jumped. Look under bushes, cars, carports, porches and decks. Look along buildings and fence lines too. Put out dirty laundry and other familiar scents outside ASAP with water and bedding. Don’t leave food out so you don’t attract other animals.. Look for him anywhere he could hunker down in or under. Put flyers on neighbors porches asking them to check their property throughly in case he’s hiding in nearby yards. . Ask neighbors to check security cameras too! Look inside sheds and garages too. Post on Nextdoor and file a lost report with the shelter . Hope you find your kitty soon . Just don’t stop looking everywhere .
Our daughters cat slipped out of her house and hid almost two weeks until we saw her on security cameras. Every time she opened the door her cat would flee! We finally set a humane cat trap near the porch and monitored it from a distance with a security camera and caught her within a few hours. If he continues to hide, set the trap in the early morning hours. You will find him , just don’t stop looking. If he is microchipped, file a lost report with the microchip company and make sure contact info is current. Hope you find him safe soon
