Finding Lost Indoor Cats -
General Tips 2

  • Use a flashlight and search again at night when your cat may feel less threatened. Look for eye reflections within a two block radius of your home
  • Have patience. Cats may need to hit the threshold where hunger and thirst drive them out of hiding (often 10 to 14 days later)
  • Approach a lost cat slowly and with care. Remember that your cat is hiding for protection and is going to be very wary of anything, even you, approaching it
