Found a Healthy Dog or Cat?

Thank you for caring for this lost pet! At the Arizona Humane Society, we focus on taking in pets who need medical care. If the pet seems healthy and uninjured, please instead bring them to Maricopa County Animal Care and Control—or you can begin the search for their family yourself. We’ve put together a complete list of steps to take to help reunite them with their owner.

Found a Litter of Kittens?

Don’t kit-nap kittens! Many kitten litters may seem abandoned while their mother hides just out of sight. Unless a kitten is obviously injured, leave them be.
