Thank you for being so kind to help keep this kitty safe. Are you able to secure inside to keep from a coyote getting him/her?
🐾 IF YOU FIND A CAT 🐾
Here’s what to do to help reunite a lost kitty with their family:
1. Post Online
Share the found cat on local lost/found pet Facebook pages and neighborhood apps like:
• Nextdoor
• PawBoost
• Ring Neighborhood
• Local community groups
2. Check for a Microchip
Take the cat to a nearby veterinarian or animal shelter to be scanned for a microchip.
• Many animal rescuers have their own scanner and may be able to help.
• Always use a secure cat crate or carrier to prevent escapes.
3. Put Up “FOUND CAT” Signs
Not everyone is on social media! Post signs around the neighborhood - especially near where the cat was found.
4. File a Found Report
This is very important. Contact your local animal shelter to report the found cat:
• Mission Viejo Animal Shelter
📞 (949) 470-3045
5. Foster if You Can
If you’re able, please foster the cat while trying to locate the owner. It keeps them safe and off the streets.
6. Verify Ownership
Ask anyone claiming the cat to provide proof of ownership, such as:
• Photos of the cat
• Vet records
• Identifying detailsRead More
Any new pet added within 2 miles of your location will be automatically shared to your Nextdoor feed.
The post will automatically update when a pet is reunited.
