Wisp: Lost Cat Reunited Littleton, CO!
“Wisp is an indoor only cat. We think she must have darted outside when one of our roommates came home late and didn’t realize she had gotten out. It wasn’t until 12 PM or so that we even realized she was gone because no one in our house had seen her since the night before. We put her litter box, wet and dry food, some of her toys and dirty clothes on our patio to try to attract her back to our home.
My boyfriend opened the windows to the kitchen and was planning on sleeping on the kitchen floor to see if he could hear her scratch at the door. Around 12:15 he heard crunching on the dry food we left outside, and when he looked it was Wisp!
There were a lot of people who gave us advice on what to leave outside for her to try to attract her back home. People also posted stories of their cats who had gone missing and returned which gave us hope. I would recommend PawBoost to a friend because so many people were sharing her story.
It was nice seeing a community of people we didn’t know helping us look for Wisp. Pets, especially cats, can be tricky to find when they go missing from home, so I think anything helps!”
Max: Lost Dog Reunited in Phoenix, AZ!
“My side gate to the backyard wasn’t latched right one evening and must have either blown open with the wind or was pushed open. Max was able to get out, and likely he saw someone or something to go explore. He made it down the street about 5 houses before an awesome neighbor found and took him in.
She got on Facebook and saw his PawBoost post on one of the lost/found dog groups in our area, which is great because it wasn’t a group I had joined yet. We were able to connect and I had him home in about 2 hours or so.
If it weren’t for PawBoost I don’t think we would have connected so quickly. We might have eventually because Facebook is great like that plus Max is chipped, but it would have taken much longer and I would have been heartbroken for so much longer. I would definitely tell friends to use PawBoost and help get the word out!”
Phoebe: Lost Dog Reunited in Cleveland, OH!
“Phoebe escaped through a hole in the fence one night after going out to potty. She was found by a very kind couple about a mile away from our house in a park. They have a missing dog as well and stopped to see if it was their pup. When they saw Phoebe they knew she was someone’s pet. They took her home, gave her food and cuddles, and then took to the internet to find her owners.
I had just submitted my PawBoost ad that morning, so when the gentleman logged on to post her, he saw our ad! They called and we had her back in our arms within 10 minutes. I am SO THANKFUL for PawBoost and can’t tell you how much it means that our girl is home! I would (and will) absolutely recommend PawBoost to my friends. It saved our fur child and that is simply priceless!”
Lilly: Lost Dog Reunited in Sealy, TX!
“There was a large thunderstorm looming one late Friday afternoon. Lilly is a 7 year old, black and white, female pit bull who was adopted from a shelter about a year ago. She was successfully treated for heartworms. However, she was on continued medication as she had a persistent cough.
We have horses and goats. Lilly loved to take her toys and arrange them neatly next to a convalescing Angora buck. She escaped from the fencing around the barn and into the dark. She is terrified of storms. We searched for her through the thunderstorms until 1 am Saturday morning.
We searched most of Saturday in the continued rain changing clothes and rain gear throughout the day to no avail. Sunday morning, I placed the ad on PawBoost and gave Lilly’s story. In that 24 hour period, our ad got over 3,145 views and 125 shares.
We received a post on Facebook with her picture wishing to know if the dog that a friend found late Friday night shivering under a trailer was Lilly. YES, I immediately replied. It was my 71st birthday and this was the BEST BIRTHDAY present that I have ever received. Was lost and now am found! Amazing Grace. Thank you Jesus! Thank you PawBoost!”
Sammy: Lost Cat Reunited in Carroll, OH!
“Sammy showed up at our door and stole our hearts. He asked to go outside as usual and didn’t return for weeks. We searched, posted, shared, cried and worried every day he was away. PawBoost shared, updated and checked back every week to see how our search was going and then re-posted his picture every week.
We received many leads and replies from all of those who followed along. Unfortunately, none of them led us to our Sammy, but they sure tried. Exactly one month almost to the hour, Sammy showed up again at our door begging to come in! He was much thinner, extremely hungry and exhausted but otherwise, in great health.
We have absolutely no clue as to where he was or what happened. We tried all the tricks, tips, social media, signs, etc. to no avail. We will never know what made him leave us but we suspect something chased him from our yard and he ran so far he got lost. Who knows? What we DO know is that we are overjoyed and so thankful to have our sweet Sammy back home.
PawBoost is a great resource and a compassionate team that helped us feel like we weren’t all on our own in our desperate search. We would definitely recommend them to everyone. Thank you for all you do! He slept extremely soundly and most of the time for almost a week once he returned. Since then, he is behaving normally and has added back quite a few pounds!”
