It’s critical that you alert your neighbors as quickly as possible and take the proper steps that could lead to a happy reunion.
If you have lost or found a pet (first off – we’re sorry to hear), contact your local animal control agency and/or non-emergency police department. File a lost pet report and ask where your animal will be taken if it’s picked up by one of these agencies.
