Kaia Gerber’s cat, Tony, went missing in the Hollywood Hills on Tuesday, prompting a neighborhood search by friends including influencer Jake Shane, actor Lewis Pullman, and director Carissa Gallo. The search comes just days after the death of Gerber’s 27-year-old brother, Presley Gerber, on Sunday.
### The Hollywood Hills Search for Tony
Friends of Kaia Gerber mobilized in her Hollywood Hills neighborhood to look for her missing feline, Tony, according to reports from TMZ. Jake Shane, Lewis Pullman, and Carissa Gallo were spotted canvassing the area and putting up “LOST CAT” posters that alert residents to a reward for the pet’s safe return.
The flyers state that Tony was last seen on Tuesday and can be identified by a tracker worn around his neck. During the neighborhood canvass, Gallo was photographed carrying a large envelope addressed to Gerber.
### Family and Community Support Following Presley Gerber’s Passing
The search for the pet adds an immediate logistical challenge for Gerber, 25, as she processes the death of her older brother, Presley. Presley Gerber passed away on Sunday after suffering a cardiac arrest the night after checking into a Santa Monica sober living home. Police are investigating the incident as a suspected overdose, while his official cause of death remains deferred and no foul play is suspected.
In the days following Presley’s death, friends and family members have gathered at the Gerber residence to offer support. Alongside Jake Shane, longtime family friend George Clooney was spotted visiting Kaia Gerber’s home. Clooney, a close friend of Rande Gerber with whom he has shared business ventures, spent hours talking with Presley prior to his passing, according to sources cited by the Daily Mail.
### Sibling Bond and Prior Public Statements
Kaia and Presley Gerber shared a remarkably close relationship growing up in Malibu, California, as children of supermodel Cindy Crawford and businessman Rande Gerber. Insiders told Page Six that the siblings were “like best friends,” and Presley famously had his younger sister’s name tattooed on his arm in 2018. Both siblings followed their mother into the fashion industry, launching modeling careers at young ages and appearing together at red carpet events.
One month prior to his death, Kaia Gerber spoke about her brother’s public advocacy regarding drug addiction and mental health during a cover story interview with Vogue published in September 2026. She described how supporting Presley through his addiction shaped her childhood, noting that her brother chose to be an open teacher for others experiencing similar struggles.
