Help I lost my pet!!!
- The AnimalShelter.org web site now provides a Lost and Found section. You can click here for detailed information.
- Hopefully, your pet was wearing a tag. Call the agency issuing the tag and make sure your address and phone number is up to date.
- Put up florescent or brightly colored signs in the area where people driving by can see the signs. Make SIMPLE and E-Z to read signs.
- Pass out flyers in shopping centers, laundromats, schools and neighborhoods.
- Ask the neighborhood teens. Offer a small reward if they find your pet. Often a neighbor is feeding your pet.
- Put ads in local newspapers. Most ads are $5-10 per week.
- Call on FOUND ADS in all local newspapers. Someone who found your pet may be trying to sell it.
- Walk the neighborhood calling for your pet.
- Visit all the local shelters and animal agencies every few days. Often the finder tries to keep the pet and will give it up at a later date. Keep looking for at least 6 months.
- Continue to advertise and look for your pet for at least 6 months.
