LOST OR FOUND PETS – WHAT TO DO

If you find a lost pet, your first action should be to remain composed. Chances are that it will be stressed from being in an unfamiliar environment. Although in a state of anxiety, many lost and found pets respond to food. It signals to them you’re not the enemy and are someone who they can trust.

You should also try and restrain the animal so it won’t run off and will stay calm. This could include bringing it into the home, shed or courtyard. Once restrained and no longer frightened, begin ringing the appropriate authorities (e.g. the local council and registries) and start searching online databases that have been specifically set up for lost and found pets.

It is important that lost pets are reunited with their owners as soon as possible. This causes less stress to the animal and owner alike. Use the many tools out there to assist this reunion.
