First steps if you lose your cat in Gelligaer

  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 Parc Penallta, about 0.6 miles away, and Parc Coetir Bargod, around 1.4 miles off, before you widen the search to the wider area.

  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 cover along the Nant Cylla, about 0.4 miles away, and the Nant y Cascade, around 0.7 miles off, where a cat can lie low.

  3. 3

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

    Tip from locals

    The A469 and A472 are busy roads that may keep a scared cat on one side, so ask neighbours on your side of them to check 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 the nearby villages too: Hengoed, about 1.4 miles to the south-east, and Bargoed, around 1.6 miles to the north-east.

  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.
