Lost Puppies in Central Louisiana

Today at 9:15 a.m. I realized my two puppies were missing after a quick stroll around Riverfront Park in downtown Alexandria. They slipped their leash during a moment of distraction and vanished into the nearby neighborhoods. One is a small brindle terrier mix, the other a fluffy cream-colored pug mix—both friendly and curious but shy with strangers. I’ve searched the park, checked with neighbors, and posted here with the hope that someone might have spotted them near Oak Street or along Kisatchie National Forest boundaries. I miss them terribly and want them home safe.

Lost rabbits near Alexandria Riverfront Center

Hi, I am Avery LeBlanc. I lost my rabbits last night around 7:15 p.m. while I was walking near the Alexandria Riverfront Center and along the riverwalk. They bolted from their blue carrier when a dog barked and vanished into the tall reeds by the levee behind the Market Pavilion. One rabbit is white with a brown patch, the other is a small gray doe; they have been part of our family since we adopted them from a shelter. I am anxious and worried, and I keep replaying the moment I last saw them, hoping they are safe and somewhere close by. If you spot them, think of the bright yellow chew toy they drag around and the way they squint when they are curious.

Lost orange tabby cat named Whiskers with green eyes in Central Louisiana.

I lost my beloved cat, Whiskers, in Central Louisiana. He is an orange tabby with green eyes and is very friendly. He usually hangs around our backyard, but we haven't seen him since last night. I'm really worried about him and would love to have him home safe.
