Lost Cat Help Needed


Hi Guys,

(Welcome and I know I am a newbie and Welsh lol but I need help all the same)

Last night the door was left open (by a friend who I WILL be having words with) and Charlie my pure black cat bar one white hair on his chest zoomed out. He is a house cat and only really goes out on his garden when we are there. He is microchipped but no collar. He is nervous, he was a rescue cat and I think what happened to him early on in life shaped that.

Anyway Saturday night he went well really sunday morning and he is still not back.

What should I do what do I need to do?

Already drawing up a poster on the PC and put his litter tray outside. Wife is in floods of tears and a member of the family here really has gone missing. The house seems quiet.........not nice!

Any help would be great.

Phone all the vets and rescues you can think of and go round asking all the neighbours if they've seen him

Thanks for the reply. Neighbours have been done and asked but nothing. Spent most of today going round the streets but nothing. I just hope he didnt come back when we were out looking and then couldent get in and went again

Hoping to get leaflets done tommorrow.

Did you ask neighbours to check garages, sheds etc.

Can't think of any additional advise, except perhaps put some food out just in case ............ Good Luck, I do hope he comes back soon.
