My Grace, roughly about year and a half year old got out accidently on Tuesday morning . It's now Saturday .. I saw her Wednesday morning , I opened up the door and scared her and she went running across the street. It was 5:30 in the morning here in Ohio so it wasn't totally dark as it gets lighter earlier.. I live in a neighborhood , so across the street are houses, then a development behind that then a busier street and then we have metroparks that go on for miles.... My fear she got that far... I got her 9 months ago . Resqued her at a resteraunt .. Feral cat . So I got her at possibly 5 or 6 months .. Was rough in the beginning .. Almost in tears everyday wondering if I was over my head .. She got out once , about week after I got her . She was back with in 2 days... Had to entice her with food to get her in but she got in.. Been in ever since then .. Slowly she has warmed up to us.. To where now I can pet her , she purrs , comes up on bed and sleeps beside me.. She loves my other cat Brady who is almost 3 ... I was able to get her to vet only once, had to trick her to get in .. Vet said she is FIV positive and they could not find her Uterus . So she got lot going on .. Why vet did not explore more on the uterus I don't know.. She goes in heat.. We have come such a long way in the 9 months I truly would not change a thing...... I know lot of cats will find its way back .. But with Grace being feral , is there any hope she may come back like other cats..???? My thought is she might be more timid out there.... I so hope she comes back ! I miss her as well as Brady

I am so sorry that Grace is missing.  Have you made fliers to post in the neighborhood?  Also deliver door to door to neighbors.   You can also alert vet offices in case a cat is found.  Is she microchipped?

Here are some articles that give some ideas when a cat is missing

I hope that she finds her way back home.

Yeah I went to a few doors and keep going into couple back yards ..Grace is not microchipped.. Being she was originally feral we were lucky enough just the one time getting her to vet.. Just not sure cause Grace feral do they have other lost cat habits that are different than normal cats
