First steps if you lose your cat in Bury

  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 Clarence Park, about 0.4 miles away, and Burrs Country Park, around 0.5 miles off, first, since a frightened cat tends to stay close and quiet.

  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 waterside along the River Irwell, about 0.1 miles away, and the Kirklees Brook, around 0.4 miles off, where cats can move unseen.

  3. 3

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

    Tip from locals

    The A56, about 0.4 miles away, and the M66, around 1.1 miles off, usually keep a scared cat on one side, so ask neighbours on your side of them 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 Tottington, about 1.9 miles to the north-west, and Edenfield, around 4.6 miles to the north, the nearest neighbourhoods to reach.

  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.

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