Here Kitty, Kitty!
Spend time calling your
cat. When cats fearful they
will hide. Check under
bushes, in garages of
neighbors, circle the
location in which he/she was
last seen. It's also
important to
stop regularly, be quiet,
and listen
for your pet to make a noise
in reply. Take along a can
of tuna or a favorite treat
in case you need to coax
your kitty from a difficult
to reach location.
Don’t Be Shy
Talk to everybody you run
across. This includes
the postman, paperboy,
children, parents waiting at
the school bus stop, school
crossing guards,
neighborhood crime watch
groups, garbage pick-up
crews, etc. Give them a
written description of your
pet and your phone number as
well. Try to get all the
neighborhood children
involved. Kids are great at
finding lost pets!
All The News That’s Fit to
Print
Take advantage of the lost
and found ads in your local
newspaper. Place a 'lost
cat' ad as soon as possible,
and be sure to check the
column daily for any that
have been found.
Check with the Vet
If your pet was somehow
injured, a kindly neighbor
may have taken it to the
nearest veterinary clinic
for help.
Prevent!
Reduce the likelihood of
your dog becoming lost by
making sure your dog wears a
collar and current
identification tags at all
times! Always keep an
updated picture of your cat
handy. Remember that a
lost cat may lose their
collar or identity tag,
which is yet another reason
to have your cat microchipped.
