What to do when you’ve lost a pet

  • Check local shelters each day.
  • Join “Nextdoor” on your mobile device and connect with your neighbors.
  • Create a missing pet poster. Post copies in grocery stores, gas stations, drugstores and libraries where traffic is high.
  • Give a flyer to your postman and other area delivery people. They can spread the word.
  • Contact your neighbors, family and friends in the area, and ask them to pass on the information to anyone they know.
  • Never give up!
