Cats like the Bombay are pretty good at prowling quietly around the house and can even slip out an open door or window without anyone noticing. It’s scary when you can’t find your feline friend. Some of the best ways to prepare for the possibility of a lost cat is to put a plan into place. For instance, begin your search immediately. If you saw your cat escape, start your search in the direction in which she ran away. If you didn’t see her escape, check your own house first then the surrounding area. Alert animal control, police departments, veterinarians, and animal shelters within a 20 mile radius. If your Bombay has a microchip, contact the microchip company. When you head out to search make sure you have treats, a leash, and water. Begin your search within a one to two mile radius of the last sighting. Post flyers in public places including at the veterinarian Rochester, NY office. Read more for additional information.
