Pet owners’ greatest fear is to have their pets missing but having the presence of mind and knowledge on what to do in this situation can greatly help in finding your pet.
First things first, do not panic as this can only make things worse. Search around your house especially in places where they usually stay. Don’t forget to ask and search around your neighborhood in case they could just be lurking anywhere near. It is best to search during nighttime because it is quieter and you can hear their meowing easily.
Cats are inherently territorial, therefore they never go too far from their house, although going out for a hunt or encountering other cats can make them run after or away from them. If a couple of days has passed and they are still missing, try going to your local animal shelter to check if anyone turned them over there.
To increase being reunited with your pet in case your cat gets lost, talk to your veterinarian Westminster, MD about having your cat fitted with a microchip.
