HAVE YOU LOST YOUR PET?

Seems like we are flooded with Lost & Found ads these last few months!

Please follow the following tips on looking for a lost pet.

1) Search your property thoroughly � our pets can get into some strange places.

2) A straying dog or puppy is easily caught by dog-catchers from your municipal council. Call your local municipal Vector Control Unit (Unit Kawalan Vektor) immediately to find out if they have conducted any dog-catching operations in your area, and where you can view their caught dogs. We cannot stress on how important it is that you contact and visit your municipal pound immediately, as caught animals are put to sleep anywhere between 24 hours to 3 days of being caught. Do not delay.

Directory of local councils can be found here: http://www.spca.org.my/v51/lostandfound.php

3) Also talk to your neighbours and other residents in your area. Leave a ‘Missing Pet’ flyer in their mailboxes.

4) Call local veterinary offices or pet stores to find out if your pet was found and sent there. Pet stores should also be informed in case a captor tries to sell a stolen pet.

5) Post on our Facebook Wall, including important details about your pet like age, gender, last known location, date missing, a recent photo, microchip number and your contact details.

6) Post an ad on the Lost & Found section of www.petfinder.my . Please also go through the ads of animals reported found, someone may have found your pet already.

7) Post lots of flyers in your neighbourhood, pet shops, vets, convenience stores, etc. Overall, flyers or posters produce more finds than anything else.

Don�t give up! Pets have been known to find their way back home after being lost for several months.

Please SHARE.
