For the first few days/week, cat will hunker down somewhere and not so likely to come out. 2. When they eventually get hungry they will come out at dawn and dusk. This is the best time to go looking. 3. Most important: when looking, do not walk around calling. Instead, go to a specific place for 30 mins or so and just talk, let your voice carry. This will reassure the cat it's ok to come out. 4. Have as much visibility as possible: put up loads of posters, and knock on doors, drop notes. And do this every week or so to keep the info up to date and people still caring. Ask people to check sheds etc. 5. Call around vets and maybe highway agency, just in case 6. Pet detective is very useful, but is really only effective within the first few days of going missing (as dog needs fresh scent of cat to focus on).

Hello. A week ago, I saw a woman walking a small white dog on a leash, and a cat was sniffing the dog. I was surprised and thought the woman might be walking both of her pets, but the cat wasn’t on a leash, which is what caught my attention. This morning, I saw the missing poster for Smudge, and she looks exactly like the cat I saw. I spotted her right at the corner of Fortune Street Park. I really hope she will come back home soon!
