How do you get a cat out of the wall?

How do you attract a cat out of a small space?

Can cats get stuck in small spaces?
Sometimes, cats get stuck. Thousands of years later, cats still find comfort in small, confined spaces. The instinct to hide has been passed down from their wild ancestors and it is strong. It makes nooks and crannies attractive and they can’t help exploring them.

What is a warble in cats?
The lump under the skin of a cat infested with a botfly larva is called a warble. In order to get rid of it, you’ll need to make an appointment with your veterinarian.

How long can a cat hide in the house?
A very startled cat may hide for 1-5 hours or until the scary thing stops or leaves. If a cat is new to your home, it may hide for 1-2 days after being startled. If the cat was a stray, it might hide for up to 7 days, especially if it’s upset by all the new stimulus in your yard.
Why is my cat hiding and not coming out?
Your cat will hide when there is something, or someone, nearby that is causing them concern. They may be frightened or just wary about something unfamiliar and might want to keep out of the way, just in case. The other significant reason why a cat might hide comes from their instinct to be self-reliant.
Is it OK to leave a kitten outside on its own?
No cat should be left on their own outdoors, far less a small (maybe still a kitten), friendly cat who in all likelihood has been abandoned. I’m pretty sure she has a good home as I think I’ve met her owner whilst out looking for my own cat. (The descriptions seemed to match, she’s a very unusual looking girl but I’m not sure)

How do I get my Cat to come out of hiding?
Unless she’s hiding somewhere inherently dangerous (like stuck up under a car, etc), she will come out when she’s ready. If you start to hear howling or other signs that she’s upset and/or stuck then I think you should call back. But for now maybe put something tasty like Tuna outside the space to lure her out.
