I took my 2 year old cat over my cousin's house so the kids can play with it. She was a little scaried, and when my sister took it outside incase she wanted to go to the bathroom... I guess she freaked out and ran away.. What should I do now?
My cousin's house is not too far from mine, but I do not think the cat can trvael that far because she would need to cross a large road.

Try going over to your cousin's house at night when everyone is in bed and the neighborhood is quiet. Stand still at the edge of their property and call your cat softly. Just stand there and listen closely. If your cat is anywhere in a half a mile of there, it will hear you and eventually meow for you. It's scared and will need a lot of gentle coaxing. Don't chase it. Let it come completely to you.

Yeah, tape up flyers around the neighborhood with her name and picture. Tell your cousin to leave out some cat food, treats, or tuna and water every day, and leave some outside at your own house, too. The one thing you can be sure will attract a cat is food. Once any cat's found the food, it'll hang around.
Just watch to be sure it's not eaten by raccoons or something.

well from every story iv heard bout cats running away they always manage to come back home whether its 1-2 days from the time they ran away or if its a year or more but id say not to worry ur cat will show up when u least expect it but if ur out for a drive feel free to keep ur eyes open

My cat ran away too just recently.Try looking at the vets or the pound and go round asking neighbours.

I would suggest calling her nightly so she can hear that you want her and know exactly where to go I have a friend who's that her cat got something where the world is always spinning and the vet thought their calling daily her may have saved her life

Just let the cat come back on its own or get some cat nip and some treats and try to find it. I really hope you find your cat.

Most cats will return on their own. Its probarbaly she is ready to find her partner. As cats grown up their behaviour grows too. Im sure she will return one day.

She may come home in her own, but she might be so scared that she is hiding, or lost. I suggest you put up signs with a picture of her in your neighborhood, and possibly drive around looking for her.
I hope you find her!!!

I hope she is still in the neighbourhood. ask your family and friends for a hand, take her treat and go around calling her name and shaking her treat bag
I would do it right away. It's too cold out there. Please let us know!
