First steps if you lose your cat in Pudsey

  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 Stanningley Park first, about 0.9 miles away, then Farnley Park at around 1.6 miles, where quiet corners give a frightened cat somewhere to hide.

  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 Pudsey Beck and Farnley Beck, about 0.9 and 1.0 miles away, where waterside growth gives a hiding cat cover.

  3. 3

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

    Tip from locals

    The A647 and the A6120 are busy roads that tend to keep a scared cat on one side, so ask neighbours on your side of them to open garages, sheds and cellars 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 Stanningley, about 0.7 miles to the north, and Farsley, around 0.9 miles to the north-west, the nearest neighbourhoods.

  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.
