It’s possible that the cat may be more frightened than you, and if he’s outdoors he’ll be vulnerable to wildlife and larger animals. That being said, cats are a highly adaptable species and he will probably eventually find his way back home, especially if you have been an attentive cat parent and made him feel safe and wanted in his home environment.

What if I just leave the door open a little bit?

If the cat can get back in easily, he might. Cats are very curious, but also don’t like to stick their heads out the door. So you might want to think about leaving a trail for him, like a pile of cat treats near the door.

Oh. He likes his cat treats!
