What to do if the Sphynx cat is missing?
- Carefully inspect the stairwell and corridor.
It is preferable to do this with a powerful flashlight - if you lose a black cat, he can sit quietly in a dark corner under the stairs, and you just won't see him. The second step is to look under the windows, into the basement and attic of the house.
Searching is best done in the early morning or late evening when it is relatively quiet. Then the cat will not be so scared and, perhaps, she will come out of hiding.
Neighbor houses and porches also need to be combed - if you have lost a Sphynx cat, which has always been a real pet, she can get confused and run away to such an entrance, not knowing where and how to look for her home. Take your pet's favorite toy or treat for this quest, this will get his attention. And do not despair if the first stage of the search ended in vain - the animal may be hiding, because for various reasons it may simply be afraid to respond to your call. - Expand your search.
Walk around the nearby streets, asking passers-by, especially children who are playing in the yard and may have seen an unfamiliar cat wander into their street or house. Usually, every apartment building has its own cat aunt, who has taken on the role of a cook and feeds homeless animals. Look for this woman (or maybe a man), maybe she noticed that a well-groomed house cat began to come and feast on her food.
Also, prepare and print as many advertisements as possible.which are pasted in the near and far areas. The priority is kindergartens, schools, clubs and sports sections, shops, veterinary clinics, as well as stairwells, that is, all those places where a large number of people usually circulate. In the ad, you need to write in capital letters that your cat has disappeared, and also accurately indicate its signs, the place and time when the animal disappeared, and, if possible, place a recently taken photo where the animal is clearly visible. visible, and not lying on a motley sofa. Don't forget to add your contacts as well.
If the animal has not yet been found, on average, you change your pasted ads every two weeks - if they look old and faded, people will not pay attention to them.
Contact animal sheltersbecause maybe someone found your missing friend and brought him there. Leave information with a description of the cat and your contact details for shelters.
Contact the local offices of the State Police, the City Police and the State Fire and Rescue Service and inform them of the disappearance of the animal, as well as leave your contact information in case the animal comes into the view of these agencies. - Engage the community.
Turn to the media for help. It is not necessary to immediately go to the newspaper or television, although this is also a very effective way; first try to place information on the Internet - for example, on social communication portals.
