First steps if you lose your cat in Chippenham

  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

    Westmead Open Space and Monkton Park, both about 0.1 miles away, then Baydons Meadow, around 0.3 miles off, are the nearest quiet green spaces to search.

  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 the River Avon, about 0.1 miles away, and the Pudding Brook, around 0.9 miles off, where waterside growth offers cover for a hiding cat.

  3. 3

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

    Tip from locals

    Busy roads such as the A4 and A420 tend to keep a scared cat on one side, so ask neighbours on your side of them to check sheds 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 with Kington Langley, about 2 miles north, and Lacock, roughly 3 miles south, the nearest villages.

  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.
