Idk where else to post this but if you have any other subreddit please tell me where!

She was a stray as a kitten and had major anxiety that any loud noise scares her off. Even sudden jerking motions that we do end up frightening her but she just as quickly comes out of hiding because she knows that we aren’t a danger to her so she gets calm fast.

But we have a guest over for a few weeks to do some carpentry work and seeing his presence absolutely terrified her. The door was open and she ran outside. She then demanded to get back inside the same day and so we got her in. But since the guy was still there, the next few days after (which was yesterday morning), the door was slightly open and she took the opportunity to run out again.

This time when I went to get her, she was covered in dust and was hesitant to come out of hiding under the porch, feeling very cautious of any surrounding loud noises. She was okay with me but a sudden loud car noise had caused her to run off into the neighbors yard.

I tried to get her 5 times after that. I would periodically call out to her, go up and down my street. I grabbed cat treats to lure her out and even at the middle of the night played loud kitten sounds crying on my porch to get her back.

She always ran to me when she heard the sounds of kitten crying. Stray cats actually went to check out the sound but not her. Well I tried this morning with the cat treats, calling her name, going up and down my street but nothing.

She is a very cautious and anxious cat. I don’t know what to do. She hasn’t eaten or drank water since yesterday morning. What should I do? I have a raccoon trap. It’s harmless, just a regular trap door that I can set up. So maybe I can try that?

She is spayed but doesn’t have a chip. :(
