First steps if you lose your cat in Guildford

  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

    Start with Stoke Park and Pewley Down Nature Reserve, both about 0.6 miles from the centre, then Shalford Common, around 1.5 miles out.

  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 growth along the River Wey, about 0.1 miles from the centre, and the edges of Stoke New Cemetery, around 1.2 miles away.

  3. 3

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

    Tip from locals

    The A3, about 0.9 miles from the centre, and the rail line at Guildford, around 0.3 miles away, often keep a scared cat on one side, so ask neighbours on your side 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 Burpham, about 2.1 miles to the north-east, and Merrow, around 1.9 miles to the east, plus Fairlands, about 2.7 miles north-west.

  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.
