• You can make an appointment to walk through our shelter any time we are open by calling 864-467-3951. If you are unable to speak with someone right away, email lostpet@greenvillecounty.org with a DETAILED DESCRIPTION of your lost pet and a good phone number to reach you.
• Go to Nextdoor, find your neighborhood, and post a picture and description of your lost cat. Scroll through your neighbor posts to see if any of your neighbors found your cat and posted it there.
• There are many Facebook pages and websites where you can post your lost cat and search to see if anyone has found your cat.
• PawBoost is like an AMBER Alert for lost pets. Millions of pet lovers have joined their Rescue Squad by signing up for localized lost & found pet alerts. More importantly, PawBoost has helped reunite over 1 million pets with their families. Posting is free, with optional premium services available.

• Is your lost cat microchipped? If so, check with your microchip company to make sure your contact information is up-to-date. You can update your microchip information for free at found.org.
• Animals that go missing are often found within a few blocks of their home and often found at a neighbor’s house. Go door-to-door and talk with your neighbors to see if they have seen your lost cat or post small flyers on neighbors' doors asking them to check under their decks or other possible hiding places.
• Post large flyers at major intersections around your neighborhood. Make a flyer here.
