Lost and Found Pets

Lost and found pets are animals that have gone missing from their owners and are later found by individuals or organizations trying to reunite them with their family. Our goal is to support the safe return of these pets to their homes. 

If your pet is lost 

1. If your pet has a licence, update your DocuPet account immediately. DocuPet Home Safe service can help reunite you with your pet. 
2. Contact the Kingston Humane Society with a photo and a brief description to check if your pet was found and turned in. 
3. Consider using classified advertising services, checking local lost and found pets groups on social media or distributing flyers in your neighbourhood to increase the chances of finding your pet.
