Losing a pet can be very stressful on a family.  If you have lost a loved one, please follow these important steps:

1.  Post an alert in as many neighborhood places and the Calcasieu Animal Shelter Bulletin Board with the following information:

  • Describe the Pet- Explain all of the characteristics of the pet.  For example, if it has a spot on its right front paw, mention this.
  • Give the pet's name - What is the pet's name?  Does it answer to a certain call?
  • Cover the "3 W's" - Give the What, Where and When you think the pet went missing.

2.  E-Mail the Calcasieu Parish Animal Services to notify the staff that your pet is missing.  Click here to send an email.

3.  View Petfinder to see if Calcasieu Animal Services has already located your pet.  You can find our page on Petfinder.

Finding a missing pet requires a lot of time and energy.  But don't give up! You would be surprised at how many pets are reunited with their owners!
