First steps if you lose your cat in Yate

  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 Kingsgate Park first, about 0.3 miles away, then The Common and Lilliput Park, both within 0.6 miles, where a frightened cat can hide close to home.

  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 Frome, just 0.2 miles from the centre, and the edges of Goose Green Fields, about 0.9 miles out, where a cat can move unseen through cover.

  3. 3

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

    Tip from locals

    The M4, about 2.9 miles away, and the railway line tend to keep a scared cat on one side, so ask neighbours on your side first to open garages, sheds and cellars.

  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 Chipping Sodbury, about 0.9 miles to the east, and Iron Acton, around 2.1 miles to the 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.
