Calico guinea pig with white blaze lost near Presque Isle

I lost my calico guinea pig yesterday around 6pm near Presque Isle Park in Marquette. She's about the size of a softball, with tan and white fur and a distinctive white blaze on her nose. She doesn't wear a collar, but you can spot her by a tiny pink ear and a small freckle on her left hind leg. We adopted her last year after our family dog passed, so she means a lot to us and there's a lot riding on getting her back. If anyone found her, I’d really appreciate it—please drop a message in the app so we can arrange a meetup near the park's east entrance.

Leopard gecko lost in Upper Peninsula.

I lost my leopard gecko yesterday around 3pm. He's tan with bright orange spots and about 5 inches long from snout to tail, with a slightly thicker tail from molts. I last saw him near the ore dock behind the Holiday Inn Express on Lakeshore Boulevard in Marquette; he has a tiny white scar on his right hind toe and a faint irregular dark spot behind his head. He loves warm spots and might be hiding under rocks or in a heater vent. If you find him, please text me—this little guy is part of our family and has sentimental value; I really need him back.

I lost my gray tabby cat, Whiskers, near the Marquette area of Upper Peninsula last night. She's about 3 years old and has stunning green eyes. Whiskers is very friendly and loves to be around people, but she's also a bit shy. If you spot her, please let me know! I'm really worried and just want her back home safe.

Lost small bright green pet tree frog named Hopper near Fort Wilkins State Park, Upper Peninsula, Michigan.

I lost my pet green tree frog named Hopper while on a family camping trip near Fort Wilkins State Park in the Upper Peninsula. He somehow escaped from his container when we were outside enjoying the evening. He is small, about 3 inches long, bright green with a few tiny yellow spots, and very friendly. If anyone finds him, I would be so grateful!
