Never put the a cash reward. That’s only going to lead to scams and people taking advantage

For people who see this cat as something they could sell (because it's an expensive type of cat), you need to give them incentive to return it rather than sell it. There's a reason cash rewards have been given forever.

Most lost animal foundations highly recommend not offering a reward but what do they know? I guess the random Redditor knows best

Because the cat is less likely to be returned or because it incentives people to steal cats for cash rewards?

All of the reasons from animal foundations that I've read revolve around human nature and the psychology of rewards in general. If you want to believe that animal groups are the end-all, be-all authority on human nature and psychology, go right ahead.

Talking about a lost cat here not the end all be all, be all authority on human nature and psychology. I think you are reaching just a bit.
