- A picture is worth a thousand words! If
you have a photo of your pet, especially a color one, make copies
and post it in your neighborhood, and in stores, groceries, and
veterinarian offices (with permission), and bring one to the animal
shelter/humane society in your county. Don't forget to check shelters
in adjoining counties, especially if you're near a county line.
- Call and/or visit your county shelter
every few days, for as long as you can. Often pets wander for
quite a while or are found by other people who keep them weeks,
even months, before turning them in. In the meantime, the owners
give up the search. Shelter workers cannot possibly keep all lost
reports "current," and may fail to recognize the description
on pets that have been missing weeks or months.
- Place an ad with your local newspaper,
TV or radio station. Many will run a free ad for several days
as a community service. Check the "found" ads daily.
- Consider offering a reward to encourage
people to be on the lookout for your pet and to call you if found.
- Give the best description of your pet
that you can, with any information that will help with identification,
such as unusual markings.
- To report a lost or found pet, print out
and complete the form and mail or bring to the Nelson County Animal
Shelter. You may also call us at 502-348-1865 or 502-349-2082, ext 201, or
email us at humane-societync@att.net.
