LOST

Gray tabby with blue collar and bell

Lost my gray tabby yesterday around 7pm near Mission Plaza on Monterey Street, by the SLO Creek Trail. She’s a medium-sized cat, about 9 pounds, with a blue collar and a tiny silver bell that jingles when she moves. She has a white chest and a small white patch on her left paw, plus a faint scar above her right eye—she’s got a few unique quirks people notice. This cat is my constant companion and a gift from my mom, so I’m really hoping she comes home soon.

Blue whale enamel pin lost near Bubblegum Alley

I lost my blue whale enamel pin yesterday around 4:15pm near Bubblegum Alley on Higuera Street in downtown San Luis Obispo. It's tiny, about 1 inch tall, with bright blue enamel and a thin gold outline, and the pin back is a bit bent from the fall. I had it on my backpack strap while walking past Mission Plaza after grabbing a coffee, and a few people bumped into me, so it could have popped off in that area. It's sentimental—gift from my grandmother—and I’d be grateful to get it back if anyone finds it.

Red Yamaha 14-inch snare drum

Yesterday around 3pm I realized my red Yamaha 14-inch snare drum was gone, probably somewhere near Trader Joe's on Broad Street in San Luis Obispo. It's in a black gig bag that’s worn at the zipper, and the shell has a small dent near the rim with a palm-tree sticker I put on for luck. The drum means a lot to me; it was a gift from my cousin after our first hometown show, and it helped me land a few gigs with my band. If anyone found it, I’d really appreciate getting it back—thanks for helping a drummer out.

Silver necklace with moon pendant, 18-inch chain

I lost my silver necklace yesterday around 3pm near Bubblegum Alley on Higuera Street in downtown San Luis Obispo. It's a thin 18-inch sterling silver chain with a small crescent moon pendant. The pendant has a tiny star stamped on its lower curve, and the back is slightly scratched from wear. The clasp is stamped with an 'A' and looks a bit worn. It meant a lot to me because it was a gift from my grandmother, and I’m really hoping to get it back. If someone found it, please reach out— I’d be forever grateful.

Black passport holder with red stitching

I lost my black faux-leather passport holder yesterday around 3pm near the Starbucks on Higuera Street by Mission Plaza in San Luis Obispo. It's a TravelMate RFID-blocking holder with red contrast stitching and a tiny orange enamel airplane zipper pull. Inside there’s a couple of cards and a faded boarding pass, plus a small coffee stain on the lining. It means a lot to me—it's a gift from my grandmother and it holds my passport and a photo of her. If anyone found it, I’d really appreciate getting it back; please drop it at the Lost-and-Found near Mission Plaza or message me here.

Red nylon dog collar with bone tag

I found a red nylon dog collar with a brass bone-shaped tag this afternoon around 2:30pm outside Trader Joe's on Higuera Street in San Luis Obispo. It's about 1 inch wide, with a reflective white stripe along the edge and a sturdy silver buckle. The bone tag is engraved with the name 'Riley' and a phone number on the back, though the digits are a bit smudged. The collar looks lightly used but in good condition. If this belongs to your dog, message me with Riley's name and the last digits you see on the tag so we can get it back to you. I know how important a collar is for safety, and I’d love to help reunite you with your pup.

Black Ray-Ban Wayfarer glasses with blue sticker

Found a pair of black rectangular glasses this afternoon around 2:15pm outside Bubblegum Alley on Higuera Street in downtown San Luis Obispo. They’re black Ray-Ban Wayfarer-style frames with clear lenses, and the hinge on the right side feels a touch loose. Inside the left temple there’s a tiny blue sticker and a faint engraving that reads 'SLO-23'—nice little identifying marks. If these are yours, drop me a note here and we can arrange a pickup; I’d be glad to help get them back.

Found Black North Face down jacket with orange lining

I found this jacket this morning around 9:15 am in the parking lot behind the SLO Public Library on Palm Street, near Mission Plaza in San Luis Obispo. It's a black North Face down jacket with a bright orange lining, size Large, in generally good condition with minor wear. A small tear on the left cuff and a red enamel sun pin on the zipper pull are two distinctive features. I figured someone probably lost it in the area since it was dry and warm under the trees, and I'd really like to get it back to its owner. If this sounds like yours, drop a note here and we can arrange a quick meetup near the library.

Found red tote bag with star sticker

I found this afternoon around 3:45 pm outside the Starbucks on Monterey Street in downtown San Luis Obispo. It’s a small red nylon tote bag with a black star sticker on the front and a slight coffee stain along the bottom edge. Inside, there’s a spiral notebook with a green cover, a reusable water bottle, and a whale-shaped keychain. If the owner can describe the contents or the notebook’s cover design, I’d be happy to return it.

Oak coffee table with glass top

I found this oak coffee table this afternoon around 2:15pm in front of the Starbucks on Higuera Street, downtown San Luis Obispo. It’s a mid-century style piece, about 48 inches long, with a clear glass inset on top and a lower open shelf in matching oak. The finish is a warm honey tone with a few light scratches and a tiny dent on the front left leg. There’s a faded fern sticker tucked on the inside of the lower shelf, which is a small clue to its past. It feels sturdy and clean, and I figured someone might be missing it, so I’m hoping to help reunite it with its owner.
