My indoor cat escaped. Where should I look first?
Check your home and the area around the escape point carefully. Look under cover and ask the people next door to check inside sheds and garages. A frightened cat may stay hidden without answering your calls.

What should I do if I find a stray cat in Bury St Edmunds?
Not every cat that is out and about is a stray, so check a found cat for a microchip at a vet or rescue centre and post on local lost pet pages. Bury's Stray Cat Fund asks finders not to bring a stray cat straight to its sanctuary, as it may not have space; contact the charity for advice instead. If the cat is injured or unwell, take it straight to a vet.
