How To Find a Missing Cat, the Comic Guide

4. Notify your Neighbors!

• Go door to door (maybe wear a “not a Jehovah’s Witness” sign) and ask if people have seen your most beloved pet. Bring photos with you, and leave your number just in case they notice your pet later. Maybe suggest that if they see your cat, to call and find out if you are nearby first so you get to be the one to approach it. Your pet will be less likely to run that way.  Depending on the cat’s relationship with you.  Hmm.  Maybe let the neighbor attempt its capture in that case.

• Hang up LOST PET signs. Make sure it is a color photo (a good one, so your pet doesn’t resent you), and by all means, offer a reward!

5. Set up a safe house for your pet to find.

Some secure, box-like structure that you can place food and bedding inside. If you’re lucky, your pet’s wildlife pals or your local friendly neighborhood hobo won’t find it first.

6. After your cat has (hopefully) been found, treat him like the Majestic Meow he is so he’ll never, EVER think of escaping again.

Ever.

Ever.

Ever.
