Licensing and micro-chipping your pet is the best way to ensure its safe return home. If your pet is lost, a license lets the finder know that it is a cherished member of your family, not a stray.
If your pet is lost don't give up! Contact the Humane Society of Tacoma/ Pierce County at 253-383-2733 or Metro Animal Services Shelter at 253-299-PETS (7387). Consider posting on Craigslist or social media sites. Be sure to use a recent photograph so your pet is easily identifiable.
If you have found someone else's pet:
Confine the animal if it is safe to do so.
Contact the Humane Society of Tacoma/ Pierce County at 253-383-2733 or Metro Animal Services Shelter at 253-299-PETS (7387); or
