    Donations are welcome if you’d like to support the mission and help me keep expanding these services, but they are never required or expected.

  • Yes—absolutely. The more details you share, the better I can guide you. There is no such thing as “too much information” when it comes to finding a lost cat.

    For example:

    • If they slipped out the door, which door was it?

    • Have there been any confirmed sightings?

    • If they’re an outdoor cat, have they ever gone missing before?

    Every detail—no matter how small—can make a difference in creating the right search plan.

  • It all depends on how much effort you’re willing to put in. Some cats return within days, while others aren’t found for months—or even years.

    Families who stick with the process and follow the recommended steps are far more likely to be reunited with their cat than those who give up quickly. Persistence is the key. I know of several cats who were found long after they went missing, simply because their families never stopped searching.

  • Because I genuinely love cats—and I’m fortunate to have an incredibly supportive wife. Years ago, while volunteering with a cat rescue group, I helped a family recover their missing cat in exchange for a donation to the group. That experience opened my eyes to how few resources exist for people in this situation, and how devastated families feel when their cat goes missing.

    Seeing that heartbreak, I knew I could put in the work to help fill that gap. Lost Cat Recovery exists to give families the tools and support they desperately need, without adding financial stress to an already painful time.
