ADVICE IF YOU LOSE YOUR CAT

Sorry to hear that your cat is missing….Put up posters and leaflet all neighbours to please OPEN sheds and garages for a little while in case he/she is trapped inside to give him/her chance to escape., put that he/she won’t just come out if called as will be too frightened (otherwise people don’t always check properly), put reward on your leaflets/posters if you feel you want to but don't say how much, keep sharing his/her picture, post on fb groups, vets and rescues etc...and someone will offer information or may have seen him/her, . Also tonight empty something from the vacuum outside and put his/her bedding on the line and he/she will smell the direction of home if he/she's just a bit lost. Also call him/her when its quiet/late as you walk BACK towards home, stopping and listening after each call so he/she could follow if they are nearby. Also check any nearby empty houses/allotments/cat hoarders/feeders/building sites etc…. Do also 'discreetly' look in peoples windows and bedroom windows in case he/she has been taken in, it does happen. Search your garden and neighbours’ gardens regularly in case he/she is hiding under shrubs/hedges and inside and under sheds, they do this if they are injured as they often lie low for a while
