So my Cloe is a indoor outdoor cat, she usually leaves in the morning and comes in at night. She got out before usual time on monday morning, and no one has seen her since (its friday), I live in a pretty secluded area and I don't think she got hit by a car or anything. She might have gotten into a fight. I just don't know what to do, I'm sick with worry. I just keep praying that she will come home soon. I already called the shelters and the vets, I put up posters and talked to the neighbors, What else can I do?

  1. That is about it I am afraid. You can also go around everynight and call her name and maybe put something familiar in your yard. Her fav food, toy, bed. Is she fixed? Keep calling the vets, shelters, and talking to neighbors. Good luck to you.  


  2. well im not sure but i think it if were me when she comes back i would make her an indoor cat only.  that way she wont get lost and it is healthier and safer anyway.

  3. i know this may seem like a small idea but did you consider putting out a can of tuna? cats can smell from pretty far away so it might get her attention. Good luck and hope everything is alright.

  4. look on top of roofs and look in trees

    WHAT TO DO IF YOUR CAT IS LOST

    IF THE CAT IS LOST FROM YOUR HOME:

    If you have a garage or shed, keep your garage/shed door open and put a pile of some of your clothing (unwashed so it has your scent) in a cat bed with food and water available in the garage/shed.

    WHERE EVER THE CAT IS LOST OUTDOORS:

    WORK HARD AND WORK FAST: Your cat only has 48 hours in some kill shelters and keep in mind that some shelters will euthanize solely on the basis of the cat looking "weird" or having a cold. Alternatively, some shelters will adopt the cat out extremely quickly for looking like a rare purebred. Keep trying and don't give up, sometimes it can takes weeks or months to find a cat. Note that it is NOT going to help your kitty for you to panic. The calmer and clearer-thinking you are and the harder you work, the higher the chances that the kitty will be found. Your baby needs you to be level-headed, logical and methodical in your efforts to find them.

    SEARCH the neighborhood the cat was lost in immediately, SEARCH that same neighborhood at night - cats may be less frightened and out in the open foraging for food at night.. SEARCH repeatedly in your neighborhood calling your cat by name. Bring a flashlight and check EVERYWHERE: inside pipes and culverts, in heavy brush, sheds, basement crawl spaces, open garages, under decks. Your pet may be stuck somewhere, extremely frightened, or injured and lying low. For lost cats and other climbing critters, check trees, roofs, and attics. You may also want to check with local dog groups, clubs and trainers to see if there are any available resources that could provide a tracking/search dog to follow your cat's scent and locate them. Walk all over places as you are searching - this is especially helpful if your cat is lost in an area unfamiliar to them. You lay your scent and the cat knows you are/were there and is more likely to stay in that area.

    Find the names/e-mail addresses/phone numbers to every no-kill rescue group in your area and send them a flyer.

    SUBMIT LOST REPORTS with your local humane societies, County Animal Control, SPCAs, and shelters located ANYWHERE within 25 miles - keep calling regularly every 2-3 days, sometimes they need reminders, information sometimes gets overlooked, and staff could change hours/days. Visit the shelters and animal control facilities yourself, if you can, and go back every 2-3 days - no matter what is posted some shelters overlook the information and only you know may recognize YOUR cat if the cat isn't microchipped. If you cannot visit, keep calling regularly every 2-3 days, sometimes they need reminders, information sometimes gets overlooked, and staff could change hours/days.

    IF THE CAT USED TO LIVE ELSEWHERE, make sure that you put posters up and contact vets around where the cat USED to live since some cats will migrate back to where they came from.

    ADVERTISE: Don't forget ads in local newspapers, and there are also lost pet listings online you can post on:

  5. i would make a news lettler and a big poster  and i would of put my phone number on it but thats just me why dont u leve dry food on the porch and mabe she will come home that way


  6. You should try checking in your neighbors garages, and basements. Just in case your cat ran in, and and cant get out. And leave some food out in front of your house. In the morning if th food is gone, then your kitty is close by:D

  7. Picked up by Animal Control

    Picked up by another cat lover who thinks your cat is "lost"

    "Rescued" by someone who thinks your cat is "abandoned," "neglected," or "stray"

    Abducted for gain by professional "cat nappers"

    Abducted by others for sick purposes (dog-baiting, ritual sacrifice)

    Trapped and "disposed of" by a cat-hating neighbor

    Accidental "abduction" (Cat hides in vehicle; is driven out of area)


  8. Well does she have tags? And Hun if i could i would give you a huge hug! I think she probably just got exploring and got caught up in the momment. Or possibly somebody took her in and will notice your flyer. You should go door to door around where your cat likes to hang out and hand out flyers and tell them to pray and look for her. I will pray for you to hun! Shes ok and she will come home soon. :)
