UPDATE: During kitty’s second checkup at the Merrick Veterinary Group, Dr. If you already have pets in your family, and then find a lost pet, keep them separate until a vet tests for contagious parasites and infectious diseases (and then pet receives medical treatment, if necessary), and finds pet safe to be in contact with other animals. Like 99% of cats, kitty is not microchipped, but it was definitely worth checking.
Allison Villa carefully ran the microchip scanner up and down her several times. Kitty wasn’t wearing an ID tag, so during her first visit to Merrick Veterinary Group, Dr. Pet ID microchips are good extra protection, especially in case a collar with ID tag comes off, but have something visible to the unaided eye also. It’s very important your pet wears a collar with an ID tag and/or has a pet identification tattoo. Do not wire funds, do not use cashier’s checks, do not use money orders, do not give out any banking or financial information.Some mean, dishonest people purposely target the sad, vulnerable owners of lost pets. Avoid playing into the cruelty of false lost pet responses.Stay local and avoid dealing with anyone who says pet needs to be shipped.(Listen to your gut feeling if something seems wrong, no matter how much you want to believe it.) Anything that sounds too good to be true, probably is.Some Tips from on avoiding would-be scammers: In fact, if you lost your pet, do NOT send money in any form for any reason. Do not agree to pay to have your pet shipped back to you. Make an email address that is easy for someone to remember or copy down correctly. If you create a separate email account to use on flyer and online ad, you can avoid posting any personal information. Whether you’ve lost or found a pet, protect your safety and guard against scams meant to get your money. To get your flyers as widespread as possible, contact shelters, vets, pet supply store, and ask if they’ll let you email them a flyer, so they can print it out and hang it where visitors see it.

Online Newspaper in your area might run a free Lost Pet or Found Pet notice ( Merrick Patch ran my Found Cat notice with photo).Websites of your Community and groups you belong to (North and Central Merrick Civic Association posted a notice on its site.).News Boards at Stores that sell Pet Supplies and more.News Bulletin Boards at Community Social and Sports Centers, Places of Worship.Public Animal Shelters, such as Town of Hempstead Animal Shelter.These are free ways to spread the news, and check for news – whether it’s online posts, flyers, email, or phone calls – about a lost or found pet: public shelters, starting with close ones.) Because of serious overcrowding, many shelters do NOT have a No-Kill policy, so time is very important! When we found kitty, one of the first things we did was post “Found Cat” flyers, which include her photo and basic description, in the area. Sad, but Important: If you lose a pet, immediately tell your neighbors, & contact all public/town animal shelters in a wide area around you. She is very affectionate, so she is, or was, part of a loving family that she must miss. We will release her only to her proven owner, so emailing a photo you took of her would be a good way to help show she is your cat. If this white and black cat is a member of your family, please contact us by email at.
