ATTENTION ALL PET OWNERS: January and February are Coyote mating season and they are very aggressively looking for food.

They can scale a 12 ft fence with ease and jump into your backyard, or on your front porch within seconds and take your beloved dog or cat. Hunters found a Coyote den that had several dog collars of pets they had killed and no telling how many were killed without the collar. When you let them out to potty...better stick with them and watch for these killers.

Kitty has found a new home!!

From Karen Triplett:
I don’t have a lost pet but I’m looking to find a home for my granddaughter’s cat. She is off to college & I’m trying to find this cat a home. Any suggestions will be helpful, I don’t want to do a shelter. Great loving 5 year old cat. I can be reached at 314-922-4740. Thanks

This is why it is so important to microchip your pets!!

Just for your information
PSA: When you see a photo of a dog that was found and the person posting says they can't find the owner and is looking for assistance, please tap on that person's profile photo and judge whether or not the post is legit. The same if it is a missing person, particularly a child or an elder person with dementia, or just a really great deal on renting or purchasing a home.

New scams include posting a pic of a child saying she is looking for her birth parents as well as a person celebrating their 100+ birthday and wanting to get shares to acknowledge it!

How can you tell?
Well, if the person is in some other part of the world and has no other posts, it's probably a scam.

——other flags to look for
1) the ‘person’s’ profile is actually a PAGE
2) the ‘about page’ will show you its a business page, how many administrators, etc - personal profiles do NOT have admins.
3) locations are #
4) if it’s a legit missing senior, who drove off in his truck with his dear dog, there would be a silver alert or some kind of post from the police. Only share posts from law enforcement agencies or national alerts regarding missing people because they are confirmed legitimate
5) red flag number five, comments on the original post have been turned off. Why is this a red flag? Because if you are missing your loved one or your pet, would you not want someone to be able to comment?
6) the poster has only recently created the profile and has 0 friends

Why would someone do this?
Because once you share their post, they can then change the post to anything they want. And suddenly you are advertising weight loss products, or sunglasses, or rallies for politics you are not supporting or to get you to directly message the original poster who then can hack into your Facebook. (Who knows with scammers these days! 🤷🏽‍♀️🤷🏽)

We all have the sweetest intentions to reunite pets with their owners, but scam artists prey on this. Unless there is a specific location, or the person sharing has mutual friends with you, just keep scrolling.

And never send money. EVER!!!

Jack is back. Found him in the back yard this morning. Thank you for all your help. It's nice to have such helpful neighbors.

2 year old wire hair terrier, named Jack just darted out the door from 7449 SW 112th Place in the Fountains. His collar has the owners name--Eddie Stocking and his phone number. Please call Linda Knapp (who is dog sitting while Eddie is away) at 352-362-1400. Jack is white, tan, and grey and barks at everything.

Thanks!!

Here's his picture. Not found yet, but he is from Crystal River, so not familiar with area

Marlee has been reunited and her chip will be updated!!

Anyone missing this cat? Found this evening in the Hillside neighborhood. Finder is holding it overnight in her lanai, but can't hold longer as she is allergic. She thinks this kitty is declawed....

Let's spread the word.

Thanks,

Nestlé Purina PetCare Company has expanded its voluntary recall of Purina Pro Plan Veterinary Diets EL Elemental (PPVD EL) prescription dry dog food to two additional product lots, which precede the production dates of the previously recalled lots.



The expansion follows an investigation prompted by Purina that uncovered new information about a production error from a U.S. supplier made regarding this specific formula only and which resulted in potentially elevated levels of vitamin D.



The lots are:



UPC code: 38100 19190 – 8lb Product code: 2213 1082 (NEW)
UPC code: 38100 19192 – 20lb Product code: 2214 1082 (NEW)



No other Purina pet care products are affected.

**UPDATE**
It is with great sorrow that I tell you that Brady was found by his owner hit by a car and deceased this morning. He was hit very close to his home.
Thank you to everyone who was helping in trying to find him. The owner understood how difficult cats are to locate, as she said she had been looking many times right in the area where he now was found hit.

As of 1/2/23 3:30pm, Brady is still missing. The litter pan is unused, the traps get fresh food x2/day, but they're empty. Flyers with his picture have been printed and distributed/saturated in neighborhoods 4,5,and 6. Owner has been out each night looking and calling for him.
Please keep your eyes out for him.
