Lost a Pet?

If you have lost pet in Knoxville City or Knox County:

Put up flyers in the area where the pet is missing from
Come to the shelter Lost and Found department to look for your lost pet. Pets cannot be identified by phone due to the volume of animals our shelter receives on a daily basis. After being shown all the animals, if you pet is not here:
- Post in our lost and found pet log
Call surrounding county shelters and try to see if someone brought your pet there
Check the local newspapers and craigslist and place a listing
Call local vets and call the UT vet school to see if any injured animals have been brought there
Check the shelter a minimum of every other day to look for your pet. Pets can easily show up at the shelter a month later, long after the owners stop looking, try to look for a minimum of two weeks to a month
