Lost a pet?
If your pet has gone missing, please check your county shelter! Per the Ohio Revised Code, strays are held at the shelter or in a foster home for a minimum of 72 hours. If you believe any of these are your lost pet, please contact the shelter immediately in person or by phone at 513-541-PETS (7387)
If you do not see your lost pet on our lost pet pages, please file an official LOST PET FORM as found HERE.
