AnnArbor.com's Lost & Found Pets: Feb. 2
Welcome to AnnArbor.com's Lost & Found Pets.
At the beginning of each week, we post a current report featuring some lost and found animals on the Humane Society of Huron Valley's (HSHV) website along with those sent in by our readers.
If you e-mail me with
information about a pet you've lost or found - and a photo if you wish,
we'll post it here in the weekly entry. We'll also provide updates
during the week about owners and their pets who are reunited.

Hurricane loves to meow and always wants attention but does not like being held! If you have information or found Hurricane please call 734-478-4476 or e-mail jenningc@umich.edu.
You'll also want to check with HSHV. If you live in Washtenaw County, your lost pet may be taken there. HSHV offers many ways to make sure you are reunited with a lost pet. They offer the following suggestions:
- Call HSHV at (734) 661-3545 to file a lost or found report.
- Post a photo and contact information about your lost or found pet at www.hshv.org.
- Visit the HSHV and look for your pet at least every other day.
Remember, by state law, a stray pet is held a minimum of 4 days - 7 days if the pet has a collar or microchip/tag. After the hold period, the animal is evaluated for adoption. HSHV attempts to place animals with adoption potential that are too young or need rehabilitation in the foster care program.
There is no time limit or expiration date on adoptable animals at HSHV. An animal may remain there as long as it is healthy, temperamentally sound and there is room for it in the shelter or foster home program.
