What to put on it
- The word MISSING and one big, clear, recent photo, ideally one that shows any markings.
- Your cat's name, where and when they were last seen, and anything that stands out, like a marking or their collar.
- One phone number you'll always answer. Leave your home address off.
- Keep one detail back, so you can check anyone who calls has really seen your cat.
Where to put it up
- Close to home first. Lost cats usually hide nearby, and they often stay quiet.
- Hand them to neighbours, and ask them to check their sheds, garages and cars, because cats easily get shut in.
- At local vets, rescue centres and pet shops, and on community noticeboards.
- Around your old home too if you've moved recently, because cats sometimes try to go back.
- Ask before using private property, and check your council's rules for lampposts. Slip posters into clear plastic sleeves so rain doesn't ruin them.
Posters work best alongside everything else. Work through our lost cat checklist: search slowly with a torch, tell your microchip database and local vets, and post in local groups. Lost a dog? Use the lost pet poster maker.
