Lost Your Pet?
We know that losing a pet can be a very traumatic experience. Accidents happen and we want to help you find your lost pet as quickly as possible. Here are some tips and resources to help you:
-
Submit a Lost Pet report with the shelter. We are open 11am - 4pm Monday - Saturday. Phone number is 334-358-2882. Additionally, check all local shelters every day. Going to look in person is strongly recommended because not every animal that comes in is posted in a timely manner at every shelter.
-
If your pet has a microchip, make sure the microchip is updated with your current contact info. You can also register your pet’s microchip for free through Found Animals Pet Registry.
-
Make flyers to hang around the area where the pet went missing with the pet’s photo, description, and your contact information. Place the flyer in a plastic sheet protector and hang with duct tape.
-
Post a picture of your pet, general location lost, and a way to contact you in the following places (you may need to join the Facebook groups prior to being allowed to post):
-
Your neighborhood Facebook group where the pet was lost
-
PawBoost (free online service that will post to local Facebook for you)
-
NOTE: If pet was lost outside of Prattville in another town, search Facebook for that town’s lost and found pages.
-
Mission Reunite is a great website for resources and tips for all types of Lost Pet scenarios.
