MR. SNUGGLES- TRAPPED ON DAY 9!!!

Never give up on lost cats, even when they go missing in the winter! Mr. Snuggles, a super-sized indoor-only tabby, went missing from the Summit Cove area in the early hours on December 21st after he escaped through a side door that was accidentally left open. He was missing a total of 9 days before he was finally trapped in the complex garage.

Mr. Snuggles came back to the door he had escaped from twice when he first went missing, but then quit showing up. They reached out to us on December 26th after he heard about our rescue group, and at this point Mr. Snuggles had not been seen for 3 days. SLPR set up a camera aimed at an open field behind the garage, neon signs were hung in the area, and the search began. Mr. Snuggles has a “brother” cat, who was led this cat around the property on a leash to leave a familiar scent for him.

A storm moved in later that day, and concerns grew for Mr. Snuggles’ safety. Then we had 3 days of silence. Then, on December 29th, we learned that a neighbor had seen Mr. Snuggles in the driveway of the complex garages two nights prior, and a miscommunication had caused a delay in the passing of this information. (**Please always call in sightings immediately!!!!) Once we learned of this, we moved the camera to the front of the garages, and the caretaker cracked his garage door open with a scent station inside. Sure enough, that night Mr. Snuggles was spotted on camera, sitting in the garage, looking out.

The next morning, SLPR volunteers went over to assess the situation and determine whether Mr. Snuggles might still be in the garage. Cat tracks were found leading to the open garage door from the field behind, and Mr. Snuggles could be in any of the connecting garages and would be impossible to catch free-hand. A decision was made to close the garage door and set up a trap and camera inside (on a strong hunch that Mr. Snuggles was inside the safety of the garages, rather than outside). Some tasty morsels were left in the trap to entice the big guy, and within a few minutes after everyone left the area, Mr. Snuggles was spotted on camera. We then brought the “brother cat” into the garage in a cat carrier, and his cries helped to comfort and lure Mr. Snuggles back to the trap. After several more tries, Mr. Snuggles finally found himself TRAPPED on Day 9, and was back to the safety of his home shortly after. Big kudos to Mr. Snuggles’ caretaker, who followed all of our protocols and remained patient and positive throughout this ordeal. His willingness to follow our protocols and work closely with us, were both integral to getting this adventure kitty back where he belongs.

Cat is not secured, but they asked us to share to get the word out in case anyone is missing. Cat was not skittish so she thinks he's a roaming outdoor cat.

Our WHY!!

​We started Summit Lost Pet Rescue because searching for lost pets has been a passion of Melissa & Brandon's for many years! We both have unofficially searched for lost pets for the past few years, before we teamed up last fall on Outlaw's rescue on Vail Pass. Melissa initially volunteered with Summit County Animal Control & Shelter and fell in love with the shelter animals. She assisted Animal Control and Shelter staff with many lost dog searches around the county and was heavily involved with the searches for Jackson in Summit Cove, Lucy in Keystone, and Chevy at Herman's Gulch. When they were all found safely, she knew her passion was to find lost pets!! Brandon initially started Summit County Loves Their Pets to help find lost dog Brody. This page grew in popularity among all animal lovers in the county, and people starting sharing posts about lost pets and it just took off with lost pet searches.

​Brandon & Melissa started working together unofficially on many dog searches over the years and we decided we could better help our Summit community find more lost pets if we teamed up and started this nonprofit! We are so grateful for the Summit County Animal Shelter & Staff's partnership as well as the community's support and volunteers who help in our searches. It truly takes a village! We couldn't have started this nonprofit without the help of Doug Zidel, Andria Pyn and John Carver. Their hard work and dedication to our mission made this become a reality for us! We look forward to serving our pet community more as we grow and reuniting more lost pets with their families!
