If you have interest in becoming the owner of the stray animal, consider keeping the stray animal in your home and just file the required found report with us. Those who are searching for a lost pet are shown these reports each time they visit the shelter and we connect them to the person holding a same description animal. You will be asked to bring the animal to the shelter early on to be scanned for a microchip, while you continue to hold the animal in your home.
