In reply to the discussion: My all-white cat has been out in the blizzard, can't find him! [View all]werknotgoin2takeit

You have a lot of responses and didn't read them all so sorry if I am repeating information. But if not, this worked for me and several people I know that have lost kittehs. If you have some used cat litter, spread some around all the doors of your house (on the outside). More then food, the smell of themselves will help lead them home. I had an all white kitty years ago and he disappeared for a week after a move. He had stayed out over night before but never for that long. I was sure he was gone forever. I put out the litter as a last resort and the next morning he was there. Dirty and hungry but home and safe. I hope you find your baby, white kitties are the best!

My cat had at least one other family. He'd roam the neighborhood, visiting, and mooching off people.

I hope he comes home soon. If there's snow, he might be nice and snug in a cave.

I hope you find him. It takes LESS to kill freeze a small animal than a human.

Are you going to do that? I made a winter shelter for a rabbit, and it worked.

Look under front and back stoops or porches. Anything with cover from the snow.
