What to do if you find an adult cat...

Before you move the cat, remember that the cat may be someone’s pet. 59% of people’s cats return home on their own. 30% of people find their cat by searching their neighborhood. ONLY 2% of people found their lost cat at the shelter. You can ask your shelter or veterinarian to scan the cat for a microchip. You can also post them on Lost & Found Pets of NWA to try to locate the owner.

That cat may also be a community cat. Community cats are unowned cats who live outdoors. There are 30-40 million community cats in the US. Community cats thrive in their outdoor homes & taking them to a shelter if they appear healthy & are not in danger should be a last resort.

What to do if you find kittens...

Are the kittens visibly sick or injured? If yes, then contact an animal welfare organization or shelter that can help you assess whether the kittens need intervention. If that is not possible, take the kittens to a veterinarian immediately. If no, then estimate the kittens’ ages by their appearance & use the chart as appropriate.
