Did you talk to your neighbors?
Don't assume the pet has been abandoned! A pet lost for several days can quickly look like they've been missing for months. Ask your neighbors if they have seen this pet and post flyers with your contact information and the pet's picture. Keeping the pet in the neighborhood where it was found is the best chance they have of getting back to their family!
Does the pet have a microchip?
Check the collar to see if there are tags or phone numbers listed. You can also take the pet to any vet clinic or animal shelter to have them scanned for a microchip for free. Microchips include contact information for owners and can help reunite the pet quickly! Research microchip information..
Don't forget to use social media!
Here are some additional sites you can search for lost pet reports and post pictures on your own. Petco Love Lost also allows you to share your post on Facebook, Twitter, and Nextdoor.
