Pet Care
Lost Your Pet?
As a responsible pet owner, you can prevent the loss of your pet by:
Licensing your dog at your local animal control office.
Attaching a tag containing your name and phone number
(or that of your veterinarian to your cat's collar).
Having your pet microchipped (read The Toronto Humane Society Fact Sheet "Microchipping" for more information).
As long as your pet is properly identified, your local
humane society or animal control service will have no problem reuniting you and your lost pet.
How To Look For Lost Pets:
- Call the veterinarians in your area.
- Place signs accurately describing your pet in grocery stores, pet stores, on street posts, in laundromats.
- Place an ad in the newspaper and check the "Found Pets" section daily.
- Announce your pet's description over the public address system at local schools.
- Walk through your neighbourhood and call your pets name.
- Check in garages or sheds, your pet may be trapped or injured.
- Visit all local animal shelters to look for your lost pet.
- Keep looking!
