The Best strategy is to keep your loved ones from getting lost.
-
A collar with an up-to-date phone number and current rabies tags are a must even for indoor only cats.
-
Do a pet head count before you go to bed each night.
-
Inspect all screens for damaged areas where your pet could squeeze out.

Make sure all outdoor access doors will self-fasten when left open.

Always have up-to-date photos of your pets and store copies outside of your home incase of fire.

Make sure your pet is inside during thunderstorms or fireworks.
