10 Month Old Sally Enticed To Return With Familiar Scents

This beautiful kitty was the darling of a little girl. When Sally went missing the little girl resisted going to school. She wanted to stay home to await Sally's return. Mom was desperate, suffering for both Sally and her grieving little daughter. Then she posted on the Pet FBI Ohio Facebook page..

The picture and the situation tugged at the heartstrings of our ace admin, Char, who contacted the Mom. Char explained that most cats don't go far, especially during the first few days, and the best strategy is to try to attract the cat back. She encouraged her to appeal to Sally's sense of smell by using familiar and fragrant scents to entice her to return.

There are some good tips on our web site page Tips to lure a cat back home. It worked! Ten minutes later the Mom texted Char that Sally had come out of hiding. When the little girl got off the school bus there was her Mom with Sally. You can see the love in her sweet face!
