First steps if you lose your cat in Redcar

  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

    Begin in Coatham Green and Locke Park, both under half a mile away, then Redcar Cemetery at 0.4 miles, where a frightened cat can stay hidden in the quiet.

  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 vegetation along Roger Dike and The Fleet, about 0.5 and 0.6 miles away, plus the edges of Zetland Park, 0.7 miles off.

  3. 3

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

    Tip from locals

    The A1085, just 0.2 miles away, and the A1042, about 0.7 miles out, can 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 Kirkleatham, about 2.1 miles to the south, and Marske-by-the-Sea, around 2.7 miles to the south-east, the nearest villages to Redcar.

  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.

How does PawAlarm help if my cat goes missing in Redcar?
