Lost and Found thread. **No Personal Contact Details **

Hi Jimmy,


So sorry to hear about Oscar. I went through it myself years back with one of my cats. The thing that brought him home was that I had posters up on lamposts in the area and a neighbour was able to tell me Boots had been hanging around their garden but was limping. He had dislocated his hip and could not get over the wall into mine. My neighbours wouldn't have known him as he only went out supervised but like my cousin he escaped when we had visitors.
Please also follow the advice on the sticky as these are your best options for getting him home.

Good luck and you and Oscar will be in my thoughts.

Found in Ballycullen/Hunterswood.

This elderly gent followed Gracie and I home a while ago. Great Dane/Lab cross, coat in beautiful condition but he's very skinny and limping a LOT so has clearly been straying a while. Wearing a red collar but no tags and he's not chipped. Hopefully someone is looking for him. If anyone on Facebook could share the post linked, that would also be great. Thanks.

One of our cats, Holly escaped while taking her out of her cat carrier at a cattery in the Glenealy, Co. Wicklow area this afternoon, and disappeared into woodlands. She's very nervous, and will take some considerable patience to approach and catch if you do see her. She's a tabby, 13 years old, and microchipped.

I'm hoping for a story like the above...

My cat Oscar has been missing since Friday evening around the Tourlestrane / Rhue / Tubbercurry area in Co. Sligo.

If anyone is from there or knows anyone down there, can you please keep an eye out and spread the word?

He's quite distinctive as his jaw is slightly misaligned:

OSCAR'S BACK!!

Three months later and all

I'd given up hope of finding him but I hadn't given up on him yet and kept posting about him and following up on all reports of him.

Got sent some photos on Thursday of a cat that looked THE SPIT of him in our local town. We looked but couldn't find him. My parents mentioned to a woman they know in that estate about him.

Fast forward to Saturday and that woman spotted Oscar, took him in and rang my folks to come see if it was him. They confirmed it was so he's home, happy and safe!!



And there's a few sulky heads that the boss is back:



Thanks so much to everyone who kept an eye out and spread the word on him. You're all legends and a big part of the reason he's home at last.

I spotted this on Facebook and on the off chance someone is missing a dog, it's worth having a look through the photos.

It's from a recent animal fair and there's numerous dogs of questionable origin:

So happy for you to have your cat home. Could you have a look on lorslostdogs.ie to see if any of the dogs that are missing match up to the ones that was in the fair. Good work jimmy for posting it in

Female terrier with shock collar found in carpark of UCD Vet hospital today.

Not sure if this is the right place, but maybe it will bring someone some closure and peace. I found an elderly, female black cat with white markings under her chin, just off Harcourt St today. We took her to the Animal Welfare Clinic in Charlemont St as she had been badly injured on her left side by another animal, possibly a fox as they are known to be in the area. She was also extremely thin, and wouldn't eat or drink. The clinic rang an hour ago to say that her injuries were extremely severe and the kindest thing to do would be to put her to sleep. I agreed with them, having seen her injury and condition. They gave her painkillers and made her comfortable. She wasn't chipped but was very friendly and sweet, she climbed onto my lap when I knelt down to her, so I think she must have had a loving home at some point. If her owner sees this, please know she was well cared for in her last hours.

Tabby cat found on St Canices Road, Glasnevin Dublin. Female, so friendly. No collar and not microchipped. Has to have been someone's pet.

Our very much loved 6 month old springer spaniel puppy was stolen from our front garden, near Kilcullen, on Thursday 17th December. She is liver & white with very distinctive markings. Sweet natured and very timid. If any one has any information I would be very grateful if you could contact me.
Thank you.

Our cat Shelly is missing from the Kimmage area (Poddle Park/Ravensdale) since Christmas. She's half tortishell and half white, with huge green eyes and wearing a red collar. She can be quite nervous but she is friendly. If you're in the area could I ask you to please check around your garden, sheds/garages, etc, and if you see her please send me a PM. Thank you.
