Craigs List For Lost and Found Pets!

Our family recent found a nice cat sitting on our doorstep. Clearly a house cat but she was injured slightly and very hungry. We cleaned her up and fed her and let her stay in our house while we created and posted Found Cat signs around our neighborhood.

Over the next couple of days we got one phone call from the flyers we posted. I thought about Craigs List and sure enough posted up an ad for the cat there. Well, I’ve already started getting inquiries about the cat from Craigs List. I find that truly amazing. I know how popular Craigs List is but I never really figured that people on my block would be using it and finding my ad for this cat.

Unfortunately we’ve not found her family yet and she’s growing quite accustomed to our house in the meantime. Hopefully we’ll find her family soon as she is an adorable cat and they must be missing her.

So hats of to Craigs List. If you’ve lost a pet, or found one I encourage you to use it – it’s free!

BTW if you’re looking for a great cat for a family pet email me – she’s probably available for adoption :)

Here is the Craigs List Ad.
