Help, I found a lost cat!
Accidents happen! Never assume any animal found running stray is abandoned. Please do your part in trying to find the pet’s owner by filing a Found Animal Report:
REPORT A FOUND CAT
If the animal appears sick, injured, and/or poses a safety concern for you and your family, please contact us immediately.
If the pet appears to be healthy, we ask that if you are able to, do the following:
- If possible, keep the animal in your care. Most lost pets tend to stay near their home. Although we provide excellent care, bringing an animal to the shelter can be very stressful.
- Scan for a microchip. All veterinary clinics have a microchip scanner and may be willing to scan the pet for a microchip. Make sure you call them first. You may bring the pet to the shelter and we will scan the pet for a microchip to assist you in reuniting the pet with its owner. If you need assistance, please contact the center.
