CATDOLL : If a cat is lost, should I look for it during the day or at night?

If a cat is lost, it is best to look for it at night, and the best time is after 9 p.m. This is because domestic cats are usually timid and will not appear in the public eye during the day after they are lost. Instead, they will generally choose to come out to look for food when it is quiet at night. This time period is the most effective time to look for the cat.

The best time to look for a lost cat:

1. Look for it immediately after discovery

If you find your cat is missing, you should go out to look for it immediately, but don't be too blind. If it slipped out of the door of the building, you can look for it on the stairs. If it is lost outside, you can look for it in a hidden corner or in the grass, while calling its name.

2. Search after 9pm

If the cat is not found immediately after it is lost, you can go out to look for it after 9 pm. Because cats are nocturnal animals, they will come out to look for food when they are hungry at night. During this time, the owner can place the food it likes near the place where it was lost, so that it will come out when it smells the familiar smell.

3. Search in the morning

If the cat has been missing for a long time, you can try to look for it in a nearby garbage dump in the early morning. Usually, stray cats will choose to look for food in garbage dumps in the morning, so this method is also very effective.
