Neon teal dog harness with paw patch

I lost my neon teal nylon dog harness yesterday around 3pm near the Starbucks on College Street by Yale's Old Campus. It's a small size, with reflective white trim and a bone-shaped metal tag stamped '04'. The chest strap has a purple paw-print patch, and the mesh lining is a little worn from daily walks with my rescue pup. This harness has sentimental value—it's the one we adopted him in, and it helps him feel secure during our New Haven strolls. If anyone found it, I’d really appreciate getting it back; I’m in New Haven and can meet near College Street, Chapel Street, or the Green to pick it up.

Red Nike running shorts, size M

I lost my red Nike running shorts, size M, yesterday around 6:45pm near the Starbucks on College Street by Yale's campus. They're bright red with a white swoosh on the left leg, and there's a tiny orange safety whistle attached to the drawstring. The left hem has a small blue zigzag stitch and the fabric is a bit worn from daily use. They are my go-to pair for almost every run in New Haven, and I would really appreciate getting them back since I am training for a 10K. If you found them, please drop them at the Yale Public Safety desk or message me here.

Leopard gecko lost near Yale campus

I lost my leopard gecko yesterday around 3:15pm after the terrarium lid slipped and it bolted out. It's about 4-5 inches long, yellow-tan with brown spots, and has a slightly bent tail from a prior molt. There's a tiny white spot on its left hip and a faint stripe along the back. Last seen around Chapel Street near the Yale Bookstore and the bus stop by York Street heading toward the campus green. It's a beloved family pet; it has sentimental value and I'm really worried it got frightened. If you spot him, please text me and I can meet you quickly—I'll bring his habitat and a treat to coax him back.

Black Samsonite 24-inch suitcase lost near Union Station

I lost my black Samsonite 24-inch suitcase yesterday around 3pm near Union Station in New Haven. It’s a hard-shell case with a few scuffs on the front and a red luggage tag bearing my initials 'AR' on the top handle. There's a small dent on the lower-right corner from a tumble at the curb, and the left-side zipper sometimes sticks when it’s full. Inside I keep a blue packing cube labeled with my name, plus a few essential outfits and a folded umbrella. This bag has sentimental value—it’s traveled with me through several moves and was a gift from my aunt. If anyone finds it, I’d really appreciate getting it back.

Navy Samsonite suitcase with lime tag found near Union Station

Found a navy blue Samsonite 28-inch suitcase this morning around 9:15am outside Union Station on Whalley Ave, near the taxi stand. It’s in decent shape except for a scuffed corner and one wheel that sticks a bit when it rolls. There’s a lime-green luggage tag with a handwritten name that looks like 'J. Park' and a red TSA sticker on the zipper. Inside I found a few business cards, a travel-sized shampoo bottle, a folded map of downtown New Haven, and a light jacket. If you’re the owner, send me a message here and we’ll set up a pickup.

Blue North Face hoodie found near Yale Bookstore

I found a blue North Face hoodie this afternoon around 4pm outside the Yale Bookstore on College Street in New Haven. It's a men's size L, fleece-lined hoodie in solid cobalt blue with a black North Face logo on the chest and a lime-green drawstring. Inside the front pocket there's a small embroidery of 'NH' and a little coffee stain near the hem. It's in decent condition overall, just a bit wrinkled from being tossed on a bench. I figure someone must be missing it after a quick campus errand, and I'd love to help get it back to its owner.

Blue-and-yellow parakeet found near New Haven Green

I found a blue-and-yellow parakeet this afternoon around 2:45pm near the New Haven Green, by the corner of College Street and Elm Street. It's the size of a typical budgie, with a vivid yellow head and cobalt-blue body, and a distinctive white crescent patch on its left wing. A blue leg band with a tiny serial number is visible on its right leg. This little guy clearly belongs to someone, and I’d love to get him back to his owner. If this is yours, message through the app and we can set up a quick meet-up near the Green.
