Rescue Village wants to help you find
your missing pet by providing you with helpful information
and resources. Rescue Village keeps a file of lost and found
animals and works with people to find their pet. Please follow
these steps for the best chance of finding a lost pet
or in reporting a stray or found animal.
stray cats
If you find a stray cat or lose a cat please call us
at 440.338.4819 ext. 10.
lost and
stray dogs
Rescue Village DOES NOT take stray or lost dogs. These dogs
are transferred to the Geauga County Dog Warden. You
can reach the Geauga County Dog Warden at 440.286.8135.
- If you have lost a dog or found a stray
dog, FIRST contact the dog warden in your county
- If the dog
warden does not have your lost dog, please call us to file
a lost dog report at 440.338.4819 ext. 10
- Call other shelters
 Findtoto.com is
a nationwide alert system for lost and stolen pets. Their
system calls 500 – 5,000 your neighbors so they can
look for your missing dog, cat or any missing pet. Think
of it as the "Amber Alert" for lost or stolen
animals. If you use their service by clicking here,
GHS will receive $5 through their Shelter Referral Program.
- Check with neighbors and hang missing
or found pet flyers.
- Place a classified ad in local newspapers.
- Contact
local veterinarians and clinics in the area.
- Contact the microchipping
service – if your pet is microchipped.
- Post an advertisement
on pet databases (i.e. petfinder.com) – check frequently.
- Don't give up. It sometimes take
awhile for a scared, lost pet to find their way home or
to be turned in to an animal welfare agency.
