Please keep an eye out for my son's cat...jafil.. My son lives in the MAA twp apmt building in Hampton that caught fire today, and the cat is missing. apmts are on Marcella Rd between Coliseum and Executive Drive. Please help if you can. He is chipped and is wearing a green collar, and the chip is updated with correct information. He has never been outside. I am sure he's scared. PLEASE HELP. Thanks.

See what works for you in your special situation: Please read till the end..Walk around calling your cat as you always do. Look under bushes and in hiding places. Look at dawn and dusk with a flashlight to catch the glare of your cat's eyes. Leave garage door and lanai partially open if possible. Your cat will try to get back inside ..most likely at night. Use a trap...The only way to find his way home.or to the trap is by smell. Use some of your used clothes, put them outside and around the trap. A friend of mine used her shirt and dragged it through the neighborhood. Her cat found the smell and followed it home. It is all about the smell. You can also cut a shirt of yours into small small pieces and leave a scent trail back to the trap. I read a few days ago that a lady put out a trace with the old litter throughout the neighborhood. It worked. Her cat came home! Use the litter to lead your cat to the trap. Also try to distribute flyers throughout that neighborhood...as many as you can ( 3 miles radius at least). Check shelters in person...don't just call. Put battery operated trail cameras outside. Your cat might show up in the middle of the night. When you know the time you can wait for for your cat and slow blink to make contact. NEVER GIVE UP! I read once that you can put a chair outside and cover it up with a blanket and the cat can jump up and hide under the blanket and feels safe. They said you should put one of your shirts under the blanket and food and water next to the chair. It might be worth a try to put up a chair

Post fliers door to door and ask your neighbors to check their garages and sheds etc Cats often get trapped. Go to your shelter and make a missing report. Then check back often and always in person. Pet-trackerinc.org Valuable free advice
