Shared praying Callie is home safe and soon. It is important to get word out. Put a post on nextdoor.com ASAP-helps reunite lost and found pets, Virginia Lost And Found Pets. Let your mail carrier and animal control know so they can help lookout too. Put up tons of flyers immediately with a BIG picture of Callie along with contact information by your house, neighborhood-up to 2 blocks away, mailbox, car windshield, animal hospitals, vet clinics, stop signs, telephone polls. The best way to keep flyers up is to laminate them and use clear, thick packaging tape to hang on stop signs, telephone polls. Flyers stay UP, LEGIBLE, cat has better chance of being recognized and make it home. Go door to door asking if neighbors have seen your cat and bring flyers with you. Maybe someone took her inside thinking she is a stray-happens a lot! Try putting her litter box outside on a porch so she can smell her scent and find her way back. Even look up in trees in case she got chased up one. Indoor cats that get out usually stay close to home-within a 7 house radius hunkered down during the day scared and active at night. Check under bushes, cars, dumpsters, decks, wood piles, in used and open sheds, basements, garages, crawl spaces, closets, stairwells, SEWERS-cats like to hide there and in storm drains, CAR ENGINES-cats will crawl in there to keep warm and have been known to go for rides! Have neighbors do the same. Call loudly for your cat at night when it’s quiet shaking a bag of treats or bring a open can of tuna. Take a flashlight with you and look for glowing eyes and listen carefully for her meows.
