Further Advice

• Ask neighbours to check their garages and sheds
• Where empty properties, post notes through doors
• Go out at night time when it is quiet as you may be able to hear your cat if shut in somewhere
• Place an advertisement in the local paper
• Ask the local supermarkets, newsagents and pet shops if they will put up details

The more people that know your cat is missing, the better response and help you will receive.

There are a number of websites that offer advice and suppport and many have lists of lost and found cats:

The earlier you report your cat missing, the more likely he/she will be found. When your cat does return, do remember to inform any organisations who have been asked to look for him/her.
