LOST CATS

Cats are less likely to go missing if they are neutered and are kept in at night.
If your cat is missing;

Thoroughly check your property, all rooms, cupboards, boxes, household appliances, sheds, garages and vehicles.
Put some posters up on lamp-posts, trees etc. and place in shops, garages, post offices.
Walk around the neighbourhood and ask everyone you see, including the postman, the milkman, paper delivery boy etc, if they have seen your cat.
Place an advert in your local paper.
Contact Veterinary practices, your local Cats Protection, RSPCA, Police etc.
Check with the Cleansing Dept. of your local Council.
If your cat returns don't forget to notify the relevant bodies.

FOUND CATS

Firstly ensure that the cat is indeed Lost.

If the cat is friendly and in good condition it may belong to someone, and Cats Protection can supply a strong paper collar so that the owner is alerted to the fact that their cat is straying, please ask for one when reporting the found cat.

Ask your neighbours, especially any new people to the area if their cat is missing.
Advertise in the local paper, put up some posters.
Take note of the cat's colour and whether it has a collar.
Ascertain if possible the sex of the cat and estimate it's age.
Whether short or long haired.
If possible take to a vet to see if it has a microchip
Notify vets, Cats Protection, police etc. giving as much information as possible.
Please give the cat food and water, and some shelter until help arrives.
Do not expect organisations to collect the cat immediately as most are full to capacity.
