add Drop Shadow

I need to add a drop shadow.  This is the .jpg version.  I had added a drop shadow, on the .psd version, to the cat carrier and me, but then kept retouching the image and the drop shadow got deleted or cloned out a bit.  Anyway, I cannot get it back.  Thank you for any help.

    Your Blend Mode at the top is set to Lighten. It won't show up on a white background. Change it to something like Normal and you'll see it come back.

    Could you please post a screenshot with the pertinent Panels (Layers, Options Bar, …) visible?
