Check all outbuildings, including empty houses, and cellars in case Willow is shut in. ALWAYS take a SECOND LOOK as some cats will hide in, or behind an object within, especially if timid, even though their owners are present. And LISTEN well. Empty contents of the hoover onto the garden as her scent will be there. Place her UNWASHED blanket in a clean container, along with your scent too. Leave in the garden in a sheltered spot., or hang on the washing line if dry; used towels too. Wipe her scent on your garden fences, gates, doors too; anything leading up to the garden. Try a squeaky toy as it may attract her attention. Walk around the area, holding an object with her scent on, and rattle some Dreamies. Someone may be feeding her. (Common problem). When it is nightfall, and you are searching use a strong torch as the light will reflect a cat eyes. Poster around the area, and also post flyers through doors too. Ask around, especially those with children as they can be very observant. Hope Willow is home very soon. House cats don't tend to wander far - they are too scared so don't stop looking. Paws xd.

I am very pleased to say that Willow was found today safe and sound hiding in a garden 150m from where she went missing. Thank you pets reunited as it was your flyers that prompted the garden owner to call us. Thanks again.
