My cat has been missing for two months, how should my searching strategy change at this point?

She went missing on September 21st. I put posters up all around the local roads, asked to go into neighbor’s yards, put her missing information on Facebook and 4 different sites (which I check daily), ensured that her microchip info is up to date, sent her photo and information to all nearby shelters, put catch and release traps out, set up cameras, put my clothes outside, and have searched literally day and night for the entire day during the first week and for at least an hour each day since until the last two weeks (typically 40 mins of searching during the day around the roads and 20 mins of searching late at night in my yard).

I have been avoiding going to shelters in person due to COVID (I’m unable to get the vax), but I’m finally going to go to some local ones in the next coming days. I’m also going to try and replace some of the posters that have been destroyed by the weather and repost her information to Facebook and various shelters.

I’m chronically ill, and unfortunately all the physical work I’ve been doing is finally catching up to me. My searches have been reduced to about 20 minutes every other day. I REALLY don’t want to give up searching for her. Is there anything I should be doing that would be more energy efficient at this point in time?
