Hello,
If you are reading this it may be because you also have lost or found an animal.
I lost my cat many months ago and as a result I have learned a great deal which may serve you during this time.
In the beginning:
When you initially lose your animal is quite difficult to think on your feet so there are things that may slip your mind.
WALK A LOT and CALL OUT A LOT. Sunrise and sundown and around nine (bringflashlight and look more quietly)
Rent humane traps and check often ……………….no wet food at night because your animal may have to fight another animal ………………..there are rescue groups in your local area that will help you
Immediately call your local animal shelter and report your animal missing.
It is better to go down there than to assume it is done. When you are there ask for a list of rescue groups in your area. Some groups will come to your area for a donation and help you find your animal.
Bring a flyer with you and post on the board as well as in the lost and found binder.
If the animal continues to stay missing GO TO the shelter every five days.
MAKE SURE you ask to see all the rooms . Often animals arrive at the shelter hurt and are kept in another area til they have been treated.
Make flyers within 48 hours. Poster them in your immediate area; community bulletin boards; coffee places; flyering in people’s mailboxes is actually illegal, but I did it anyway.
If you are financially able put your animal’s poster into the local paper as soon as possible.
A photo is more expensive but early on it is important to have a lot of visibility.
Put a reward AMOUNT on all flyers. Describe your location, the animal’s names, distinguishing marks, collars, etc, male or female, spayed or not …………and quirks about your animal.
*** Some of these suggestions you will have to decide when to implement them/try them.
Look at all lost and found resources on line where you can post your animal and also view found animals There
Some local shelters also have web( check for your local shelter )pages showing adoptable animals
Keep an eye on these :

Give flyers to : local vets , churches,pet stores, community groups , and churches ……….
Sometimes animals end up at the Humane Society so be sure to visit there often and show picas of your animal.
Post your information on Craigslist with a link for a photo. Find out if there are local on line bulletin boards for your community (for example West county has a yahoo group called waccobb)
Call radio stations and ask them to mention your animal
Be creative , be intuitive ……………you will be lead . BREATHE
