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 Wichita Falls, 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 Wichita Falls 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 Wichita Falls so found-pet reports nearby surface alongside yours.

Gray tabby with blue collar near Lucy Park

I lost my gray tabby cat yesterday around 3pm near Lucy Park, especially along Kemp Boulevard and near the Wichita Falls Public Library on 9th Street. He's a medium-sized tabby with a white chest and a blue collar with a tiny silver bell. He has a small black dot above his left eye and a faint notch on the right ear. He's really special to me—this cat has been with me for years and was a gift from my sister. I’m really worried and would be incredibly grateful if anyone spots him or can bring him to the Wichita Falls Lost & Found at the library.

Black and white border collie mix with red collar

I lost my dog yesterday around 3pm near Lucy Park dog park off Kemp Boulevard in Wichita Falls. He's a medium-sized black-and-white border collie mix, with a bright red collar and a blue bone-shaped tag that says Nova. He has a white chest stripe, two white socks on his front paws, and a small notch in his left ear. He also has a slight limp on his right hind leg. We were walking after a quick hike when something startled him and he bolted from the leash near the playground. He’s friendly once he warms up, and I’m really hoping to bring him home soon. If you spot him, please email [email protected].

Lost gray tabby with blue collar near Lucy Park

I lost my gray tabby cat yesterday around 7:15pm. He's a small-to-medium cat, about 10 pounds, with a bright blue collar and a tiny white heart-shaped patch on his chest. Last seen near Lucy Park, by the playground off Kemp Boulevard in Wichita Falls, and he sometimes darts into the alley behind the laundromat on 9th Street. He has a neat notch in his left ear and a faint meow that sounds like a squeaky toy when he's excited. This cat means everything to me—he's been part of the family since we adopted him last year, and I'm really worried. If you spot him, he might be skittish at first but will warm up if you call his name, Milo.

Orange bearded dragon with blue beard, lost

I lost my orange bearded dragon yesterday around 3pm. He’s about 9-10 inches from head to tail, with vibrant orange scales and a striking blue beard that flares when he’s excited. I last saw him near the Lucy Park entrance behind Kemp Boulevard, by Sikes Lake, after I was cleaning the living room and must have missed him as the door slipped shut. He has a tiny dent on his snout from a tumble last week, a small tail-tip chip, and a microchip registered to me—this little guy means a lot to me, and I’m really worried and hope someone who finds him will text me.

Lost leopard gecko with orange spots

I lost my leopard gecko yesterday around 3pm when I was leaving Lucy Park, near the Kemp Boulevard entrance by the pond. It's a small guy, about 4 inches long from head to tail, pale yellow with bold orange spots along his back and a thicker orange tail. He has a tiny blue dot on the underside of his left hind toe and a faint crescent scar above his right eye. I kept him in a small glass terrarium tucked in a red fleece pouch, and he somehow slipped out. This gecko means a lot to me and my sister, and I’d be grateful to get him back if you’ve seen him.

Lost small bright green and yellow tree frog named Kermit in downtown Wichita Falls.

I realized that my green tree frog, named Kermit, went missing from his enclosure yesterday morning. I last saw him when I was cleaning his tank around 10 AM. I believe he might have hopped out through a small gap I accidentally left open. I live in the downtown area of Wichita Falls, and I’m really worried about him. He’s small, bright green with some yellow on his underside, and I just want to bring him back home safe.
