Have You Lost or Found a Pet?

Even if you are checking this web site, you MUST come into the Humane Society and search personally if you are looking for a lost animal. Breed, colour, and even size descriptions can vary a lot depending on who is describing the animal, and you are the person who knows your pet best. Even with a photo, it can be hard to tell one animal from another (we usually get in at least 5 black cats every week, and often at least one black lab a week). All stray animals who are brought to the Humane Society are held for three days prior to being assessed for admission to our adoption programs. You must come in during this period to reclaim your lost animal, or you will lose all legal rights to claim to your animal. Our lost and found area is open daily from 8 am to 6 pm.

As a public service, we also have boards in our lobby with postings of lost or found animals and you are welcome to bring in a poster (with photo if available) of your lost or found pet. Many people who find an animal keep it at home and these boards can help to match up people who have found a pet with those who have lost one. We try to match lost/found postings with animals in our shelter, but descriptions can vary widely and many animals can look alike, so it is critical that you come in daily to look for your lost animals even if you have posted a notice.

If you have questions, please feel to call us at 519.966.5751.
