Lost kittens near Vigo County Courthouse
Description
I lost my kittens after I brought in the groceries and shut the back door around 8:15 PM last Friday, and they slipped out through a gap in the gate near the Vigo County Courthouse. They’re tiny, just a few weeks old, one gray tabby with white paws and a tiny orange tabby with a white blaze. I’ve walked the block, rattled a treat tin, and called their names, but the night was long and cold and I’m starting to fear they’ve wandered farther than I can reach. I’m hoping someone spotted two small balls of fur darting along 7th Street and will guide them back toward home. Please leave a note on the site if you see them, I’ll head out right away.

How to safely get your item back
A short checklist to protect you and the item during the handoff.
Verify the finder before meeting
- Ask them to describe a detail not shown in your listing, such as an engraving, scratch, or contents.
- Request a clear photo of the item from an angle you did not post.
- Do not pay any release, shipping, or storage fee.
- Do not share your full address until you have verified them.
Meet in a safe, public place
- Police stations, café entrances, transport hubs, and shop foyers all work.
- Meet during daylight hours where there is CCTV and foot traffic.
- Avoid private homes, car parks at night, or isolated locations.
Bring someone with you
- Tell a friend or family member where you are meeting and when.
- Share your live location with them during the handoff.
- For high-value items, consider contacting your local police station for advice first.
Keep communication on lostandfound.io
- Use the in-app message thread so there is a record if something goes wrong.
- Do not move to WhatsApp, SMS, or email until you have exchanged a verifying detail.
- Never share bank details, government ID numbers, or copies of your ID.
