Where? You are on a national site. Some of this info might help. Go to shelters in person. Our neighbors witnessed my pet being picked up by them here. Five days, they told us he wasn't there. We found him in their clinic. Check there, too. They might try to say no. Be insistant.
If your pet is missing, you should also check rehoming and for sale pages, including Marketplace and local newspapers, rescues, and Craigslist. Many times, people get the sex of the pet wrong. Please always check in person.
If chipped, then contact your chip company. Make sure the information is current and report the pet missing.
If you decide to use Pawboost, check your Pawboost emails daily, especially if your pet is lost for a long time. And please add a phone number. Pets have been found and not able to return home because all that is found of old posts is Pawboost with no information and emails are being ignored. 😥
Please click the three dots upper right and edit to add the closest cross streets, city, and state if that information isn't already there. It can be shared to Truckers, traveling through there.
You should include the original missing date and state on top of your post. Searches on Google and FB go by posts, not groups. It makes it simpler for those of us who search. The city and state especially are very important for those of us who do Google and FB searches for pets.
If the owner walks around too far, then their scent can confuse the pet. It's best for the owner to stay close to one area and have others walk a larger area. Favorite squeaky toy might help, but use it sparingly. It might also attract other dogs, so be careful. 💝🌹👍
A simple cardboard box placed where you saw your cat might attract it home if it's closeby.
Please do not leave food and a cat box outside if your cat is missing. It can attract other cats and predators that block your pet from coming home. If you do put food out, make certain you are closeby, and bring it in at night. Cat boxes have been known to attract every stray in the area, including dogs.
Owners look for their pets at local Shelters and Humane Society if you haven't already. Please call them to let them know you have the pet. Also, pet shops, groomers, and vets might recognize them. So might the mail carrier.
You should contact them as well. Fliers could help and so could knocking on doors. A vet will scan for chip for free.
If you see your pet, don't chase her/him. Sit down quietly, don't look at him/her, just watch them with corner of your eyes.
Make sure to bring a box/bag of treats and a can of wet food. Sit down on the ground. Open the wet food when he/she's within hearing distance and lay it down in front of you on the ground.
Favorite toy. Bring it. Make sure he sees it, but if it squeaks, don't squeak it often. Once or twice, then lay it down in front of you. Just to grab attention so they see you. If they come running, don't be too quick to grab them. They'll bolt.
Smelly food like a rotisserie chicken might work better, and YouTube has videos of the sound of a food can opening. You can use that instead.
Don't make any suddenly moves. It might scare him. Good luck!!!! 🙏🙏🙏🙏🍀🍀🍀🍀
Not everyone has internet, and some ppl are not on Facebook. Join other sites like nextdoor, Ring, etc... if they are on FB, they may check other lost and found groups. Check Craigslist. The Ring app is really good, too! 👍
A quick way to check groups is to click on the pictures link on the homepage. It can save time. 😁👍
One of the most important things you can do is file missing reports with police, Humane Society, Shelters, and your chip company.
Do not answer messages offering a code. Especially don't go to insta or other sites, and research area codes of people who want you to call them. These are generally scams. They are scams. Good luck!!!! 🍀🍀🍀🍀.
