Lost pet — how to find them fast

A fast, practical plan for finding a lost pet, plus the shelters and microchip registries to contact.

When a pet goes missing in Daytona Beach, speed and visibility are everything. Most lost pets are found close to home within the first day.

  1. Search the immediate area. Check nearby gardens, sheds, and quiet spots. Bring treats and a familiar item, and call calmly.
  2. Alert the microchip registry. Flag your pet as missing with the microchip database so your details are current if they're scanned.
  3. Call local shelters and vets. Phone shelters, pounds, and veterinary practices around Daytona Beach and ask them to note your pet's description.
  4. Post online and on lost-pet databases. Share clear photos in local community groups and lost-pet services.
  5. Put up visible notices. A simple poster with a photo, the area, and a contact number still works.
  6. Post a listing. Add a lost-pet listing for Daytona Beach so found-pet reports nearby surface alongside yours.

LOST felines near Daytona Beach Boardwalk.

Last Friday around 7:50 PM, I let my two cats, Willow and Mango, out for a quick stroll near the Daytona Beach Boardwalk and Pier, and they slipped away into the carnival glow. Willow is a gray tabby with a white chest; Mango is a small orange tabby with a white neck. They’re my heart and I’m terrified without them, but I’m hopeful someone nearby may have spotted them and kept them safe near the boardwalk. Please let me know if you’ve seen either of them wandering the area.

Lost yellow-crested cockatiel with red leg band

I’m beside myself—my yellow-crested cockatiel named Sunny slipped out of his cage while I was walking along the Daytona Beach Boardwalk near the Ocean Center yesterday around 3pm. He’s about the size of a small dove, mostly gray with a bright yellow crest and orange cheek patches. He wears a tiny red plastic leg band with the number 274, which should help identify him. Sunny is usually friendly once you earn his trust and he responds to a whistle. He’s a rescue bird that my daughter loves dearly, so this has sentimental value for us and we’re really hoping to get him back. If you’ve seen him, please text me ASAP; I’d be forever grateful.

Black lab mix, 60 lbs, red collar, Daytona Beach

I lost my dog, a black lab mix around 3pm yesterday near the Daytona Beach Boardwalk and Ocean Center on Atlantic Ave. He's about 60 pounds, has a bright red collar and a small yellow heart-shaped tag. He has a white heart-shaped patch on his chest and a tiny scar above his left hind leg; he also has a slight limp after sprinting around the crowds. I adopted him from a shelter last year, and he's become my constant companion, so this feels really nerve-wracking. If anyone spotted him, I'd be deeply grateful to hear from you—he's shy but friendly and usually sticks close to people. Text or email me at [email protected] if you see him.
