Have you lost or found a pet?
4.  Make flyers to hand out in your neighborhood (or near the area where the pet was lost or found).  Ask permission to post your signs on neighbors'
lampposts, trees or in area commercial establishments.  Remember to post some signs at kids' eye level - sometimes they are more aware of what is
happening in the neigborhood than adults.  (Kids can make your flyers easily by clicking on
www.kindnews.org then click on "flyer maker" in the lower
left hand corner.)  Include the following information on your flyer:
breed, sex, size of animal,length of hair, wearing a collar? what color?, fur color,
where was the pet lost/found,your contact information - phone number, email.  Include a picture of the pet if possible.

5. Call the Marion County Humane Society (366-5391).  See if someone brought your lost animal to us or if they've reported the animal you found
missing.  You can also  see the animals at our shelter online by going to to our page on
petfinder.com.

6. Place ads with all local radio and newspapers.  Visit the Times West Virginian and post a classified ad.

7. Call
Animal Control and leave your description.   (694-1200 or 694-1300).  Watch the classifieds section of the Times West Virginian where Animal
Control lists animals they have picked up.  Check this column daily.  Animals who are not claimed
may be put to sleep.  Make an appointment to see
their animals.

9.  Call all local veterinarians to see if your pet has been injured.

(If you are reporting an animal you have found, consider leaving off an identifiable mark on the animal so that you can confirm that a caller is, in fact, the owner and not someone
trying to obtain an animal to use for inhumane purposes)
