Has your pet gone missing? The Missing Pet Network, a volunteer group sponsored by the United States Department of Agriculture’s Animal Care Office, outlines the most effective actions for recovering a lost animal.Advice includes handing out flyers and visiting shelters. In the case of a lost cat, it may be a good idea to noisily open a can of cat food outside. No feline can resist that sound.
