Don't try any food "lures" or toy "lures" for your cat may hide more to get those. So instead if you want your cat out, you have to go in there and get her; then close up the hiding place. But your cat needs her privacy just like you, so don't keep pulling her out of her hiding place. Just let her be most of the time or she will become anti-human!

Tuna works for my cat, or you can try a cat treat. I also have this cat toy that has this blue fuzzy thing on the end of a string, and my cat always goes after it...you might try that also. Good luck!

I used to use food/treats placed out in the open to lure my cat out before. Often times you have to make it so they think you're gone and then they'll come out.

Call the cat by its name
get a empty dish and tap the plate with a spoon or fork
Cats love tuna, chicken, and ham too.
Good luck

Is she in the house? If so, shake a bell or a cup of dry beans (they love the rattle) or else open an can of cat food slooowly. Call her name.

put a trail of food leading to your house (like tuna or some thing)
along with some catnip. if the cat goes in your house..DONT FREAKEN jump out and be I GOT YOU! it'll get scared and run off..when the cat is EATING then you shut the door slowly and queitly..

cats do what they want when they want so she'll come out when she's lonely or hungry. Moving a cat toy around may work if she's not too afraid. some cats are just really timid so you gotta work on making her feel secure.

After you find out, do not let her/him understand that you know the place. That is like their private life somehow. I had the same with my cat and whenever I found her and picked her from there, she changed the place. Just find out the place and pretend like you dont know...

Play jungle music so she feels like she's in her natural element. Then, when she is feeling wild enough have something dart across the room and she will have no choice but to give in to her animal instincts and chase after it. Once she is out, you can scoop her up and hold her.
I would suggest Mana.
