Lost Breeds in Gadsden, AL

I realized I lost my Breeds when I was loading groceries into my car at 7:15 p.m. last Friday. The Breeds is a small, worn notebook with notes and photos about our dogs—the kind of thing that ties our family memories together. I retraced my steps along Rainbow Drive and checked benches near Noccalula Falls Park, then the gazebo by the trail, but nothing turned up. I keep thinking I must have set it down on a park bench in the breeze. If a kind stranger found it, I’d be grateful to have it back; it feels like a thread keeping us close.

Lost puppies near Noccalula Falls Park, Gadsden-Anniston.

Two beagle mixes slipped away from our yard after I opened the gate around 6:30 pm this Saturday. I last saw them near Noccalula Falls Park, by the dog-walking loop at the park's main entrance. They’re small and friendly, brown and white with one wearing a blue collar; the other has no collar. The kids miss them terribly, and I’m worried about their safety. If you’ve seen them or have any information, please share it through the site — I’m hoping for a quick and safe return.

Gray Syrian hamster with white belly

I lost my gray Syrian hamster named Nori yesterday around 3pm after I stepped out to grab a snack. Last seen near the Gadsden Public Library on Meighan Boulevard, I think he ducked into the hedge by the steps near the fountain. Nori is tiny, about the size of a ping-pong ball, with fluffy gray fur and a white belly. He also has a distinct white patch on his chest and a tiny notch on his left ear that makes him easy to spot if you find him. He has been with us since last year and I'm really worried; he means a lot to my daughter and me. I'd be grateful to get him back.

Pink reflective dog harness with paw-print embroidery

I lost my pink reflective dog harness yesterday around 3pm near the Walmart on Quintard Ave in Anniston. It’s a small size, neon pink nylon with a black quick-release buckle and bright reflective stripes along the edges. There’s paw-print embroidery on the chest strap and a tiny blue thread stitched along the inside liner. Inside, there’s a small name tag that reads 'Luna' in blue handwriting. My beagle mix, Luna, wears it all the time, and it was a gift from my sister, so it feels sentimental to me. If anyone finds it, I’d really appreciate getting it back.

I lost my dog's blue collar with a cute bone-shaped tag attached while walking in the park near Gadsden-Anniston last Saturday. The collar has some faint scratches, and the tag has my contact details engraved on it. My dog Beckett was wearing it when he tugged away during our walk. I really hope someone finds it.

I lost my cat's collar while walking through the Gadsden-Anniston park the other day. It's a bright blue collar with a little silver bell and includes a tag with my number on it. I really hope someone picks it up because I want to get it back for my kitty!
