First steps if you lose your cat in Arbroath

  1. 1

    Search the immediate area very thoroughly first — a frightened cat usually hides silently within a few houses, not far away.

    Tip from locals

    Search Springfield Park first, only 0.1 miles away, then Inchcape Park and Low Common, about 0.4 and 0.5 miles from the centre, where a cat can hide close by.

  2. 2

    Go out again after dark with a torch: cats move once it is quiet, and their eyes reflect the light under cars, sheds and hedges.

    Tip from locals

    After dark, check the banks of Brothock Water, just 0.1 miles from the centre, and the edges of Inchcape Park, where a frightened cat can stay low in cover.

  3. 3

    Ask neighbours to open garages, sheds and cellars — cats slip inside unnoticed and get shut in.

    Tip from locals

    The A92 and the A933, about 0.1 and 0.4 miles away, tend to keep a scared cat on the town side, so ask neighbours there to open sheds and garages first.

  4. 4

    Ask neighbours to check enclosed spaces again and share a recent photo with the last-seen place and time.

    Tip from locals

    Share the photo in Marywell, about 2 miles to the north, and Saint Vigeans, around 0.8 miles to the north-east, the nearest neighbourhoods.

  5. 5

    Report her to the shelter, nearby vets and the microchip registry, then start a targeted alert that reaches the whole neighbourhood at once.

Frequently asked questions

How does PawAlarm help if my cat goes missing in Arbroath?
