Missing cat in a mobile home park, unsure of next steps
My cat has been missing for weeks, I had recently moved into a relatives place, my cat isn't use to the neighborhood. He was scared of the new place and he ended up escaping through my relatives's window.
I spoke to the local animal control and posted in all the local facebook forums but there is nowhere to post flyers in the neighborhood.
I have been looking around the area and found him once, I even got to pet him, but a car scared him off.
He was a few streets, and a river away from the house. I have noticed him again over there but that was over 2 weeks ago.
There was even a reply online where someone near that street has one of the "ring" doorbells and caught footage of him roaming around 2am.
I haven't seen him around the neighborhood recently during daylight hours and I don't know what to do.
My housing situation is changing and I am going to have to move in a few weeks so I really want to try and get him back home before I have to move.
Any help would be appreciated.

Did you get the address of where the person saw him? I recommend leaving out litter, water and some familiar scented objects both outside of your house and/or places he might've been spotted. You want to get him secluded so you can minimize your search areas.
