First steps if you lose your cat in Fullerton

  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 Hillcrest Park, about 0.7 miles away, then Brea Dam Park at around 1.1 miles, both quiet green spaces worth a careful search.

  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 Brea Creek, about 0.25 miles away, and Fullerton Creek at about 0.5 miles, where the undergrowth gives a cat plenty of cover.

  3. 3

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

    Tip from locals

    The BNSF San Bernardino Subdivision rail line, about 0.1 miles away, and CA 91, around 1.1 miles, usually keep a scared cat on one side, so ask neighbors 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 Placentia, about 3.2 miles east, Brea, around 3.5 miles north-east, and La Habra, about 4.4 miles north.

  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.

    Tip from locals

    Three vet practices lie within about 3 miles, so call them and the microchip registry, then start a targeted alert.
