Message from Owner

My cat Marty (also called Chuffy) was taken without my permission from the Teller hse in Uptown (Chicago) and ended up at Naperville Animal Control on January 12, 2026. I only recently learned this after contacting the VEG Emergency Veterinary hosp in Naperville, who confirmed he was taken there. I live in Chicago, not Naperville, so I did not know to check Naperville lost pet pages or local postings at the time. He was posted to the Naperville Police Department's Facebook page on January 12th. I am now hoping he may have been adopted. If anyone has any information about Marty’s whereabouts, please message me. I can provide photos and veterinary records to confirm ownership.

Unfortunately he was not chipped. I regret not getting that done. I am unsure why they haven’t called me back yet.

Rosanne Marie yes I did. They said they would contact the people he was adopted to so they can be made aware of the situation. No update from them yet.

—Do Not leave out litter box. Leave out your fur baby’s blanket or bed. —Go to every business nearby and neighbor and ask them to check crawl spaces, bats, garages, sheds, under decks, etc. —you should check and have neighbors and businesses also Check water heater closet, behind oven or washing machine dryer etc - any space a cat could get into —Flyer if they aren’t home. All over. —Posters. —They’re usually very close by unless they got chased. —Check up trees at night. ******❤️❤️ Dusk (and even night, but especially dusk) and Dawn - these are good times to sit outside and talk loud enough for pets to hear you, but without panic in your voice. Talk to yourself. Hum. A friend’s cat went missing and she almost gave up after 2 weeks. She was sitting outside on her front steps one early evening and just talking and singing, sleep deprived. Then she was talking to herself. Her cat walked right up to her. It can’t hurt. Hear mama’s or papa’s voice, without panic. —Put reward amount on flyer 🙏 —when you check for messages here, check “message requests” - usually 3 lines/bars or so to click to find that option.
