I brought my cat to my mother's house over Thanksgiving (out of state), and while there, she got outside and ran away. She's been gone for 3.5 weeks now. We have spotted her four times in the last week. I came back for Christmas, and I personally saw her on Saturday. She was sitting on a fence, looked at me a few times while I called her name for about 3 minutes, then got bored, jumped down and ran away.
It seems she has started to go feral! She is just under two years old. Does anyone know of any strategies I can use to catch her again? She has been around the neighborhood, but she seems to avoid my Mom's house because my Mom has her own cats, and she really dislikes them (they tolerated her, but she would always hiss at them if they came too close).
Also, can anyone recommend a tasty but very SMELLY individually packaged cat treat I might use as bait if I see her again? I thought about walking around the neighborhood with a can of tuna and a can opener, but that seems a little impractical.
Thanks!
