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.

Lost: Reagan, a Maine Coon cat
Reagan is a very large, Maine Coon cat that has gone missing from Ann Arbor. Please let us know if you know where he is. Please contact wheatley@umich.edu if you have information.





Lost: Sir Winston Churchill
Our dog Winston broke free from his running line around 7 p.m. Feb. 3. We live on Dexter Pinckney Rd in between Dexter and Pinckney. He is a beagle boxer mix, brown and white. Please contact moonstone@gmail.com if you have any information.


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.
