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 Terre Haute, 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 Terre Haute 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 Terre Haute so found-pet reports nearby surface alongside yours.

Cockatiel missing near Vigo County Courthouse, Terre Haute

I lost my silver-gray cockatiel yesterday around 3pm near the Vigo County Courthouse on 4th Street in Terre Haute. He's about the size of a paperback and has a bright yellow crest with orange cheeks, plus a blue leg band stamped 'TH-04'. He’s shy and tends to hide in shrubs, so he could be within a couple blocks of the courthouse area or behind the pharmacy on that block. This bird is a family treasure—my daughter’s birthday gift and the one creature who always cheers us up—so we’re really hoping to get him back. If you’ve seen him, reply to this listing or email [email protected] with any sightings.

Lost green tree frog named Charles with yellow spots at Riverwalk Park, Terre Haute.

I lost my pet green tree frog named Charles at the Riverwalk Park in Terre Haute. I took him out for a bit of fresh air, and he jumped out of my hands while I was trying to take a picture. He's about the size of my palm and is bright green with little yellow spots. I'm really worried and would love to get him back.
