Neighbor Alice writes in about another lost pet:
We just moved to the neighborhood a week ago, and it seems that Salvador’s explorations must have gotten him lost. He’s a large, gray, very friendly male (neutered) cat, with a notched ear. He’s usually very social and outgoing, but my guess (my hope!) is that right now he’s cowering in someone’s garage, unsure how to get home … Let us know if you’ve seen him or know anything. He’s not micro-chipped. Thanks! Alice & Rob, 206-753-8667
Jonah Spangenthal-Lee at the SPD Blotter reports that a South Precinct police officer found a lost animal while patrolling in Rainier View (not Beacon Hill) Sunday morning. But this wasn’t the usual lost cat or dog — it was either a goat, or a big-horned sheep. (According to the Seattle Times, there is some uncertainty about the animal’s species at this point.) A full-sized male animal of about 60 pounds, the beast was just wandering down the street near Beacon Avenue South and South Leo Street.
Police have turned the beast over to the Seattle Animal Shelter. If you know where he came from, you may want to call the Shelter to let them know: 206-386-7387.
(Editor’s note: The SPD Blotter reported this story as being on Beacon Hill. An earlier version of the story here at the BHB said it was Beacon Hill as well, but apparently South Leo Street crosses Beacon Avenue in that far southeast part of Beacon Avenue that is not actually on Beacon Hill. The story’s not actually on the Hill, but… how often do we get to run stories about roaming ruminants?)
There have been a lot of lost pets in the neighborhood lately. Here’s one.
Neighbor Heidi writes:
Our cat went missing yesterday afternoon and I’m hoping one of our neighbors has seen her or has information. She’s a pretty common looking brown tabby with white chest and white front feet. Her name is Dora. She’s a bit skittish with strangers, never strays more than a house away and has never been gone more than a few hours. She’s not the kind to get lost, or curious enough to get locked in a garage or something either, so we’re worried. She doesn’t wear a collar or tags, but is micro-chipped. We’re at 19th and Lander area.
If you have seen her or know anything, call 206-322-4503.
Lost Dog in Beacon Hill. “Chompers” is a small black and white Chihuahua and Boston Terrier mix last seen around 17th and Hinds on the morning of 9/24/12. She is friendly to people, but aggressive with other dogs. She is in heat, which is probably why she got loose. She has tags with my phone number. If you know of anything, please email asiancajunandy@gmail.com or call 504-432-0020.

A gorgeous, large, wirehaired, black and tan, dog showed up in Benefit park this morning. No tags, just a large choke type collar and a heavy carabiner. I can be reached at 916-838-5849.
Please help me find this dog’s home!
Neighbor Sean sends this notice:
We have a scared lost male black Shepherd mix that has been on the loose in the Central District/Beacon Hill area since Wednesday, the 5th, evening! He was just pulled from a Yakima shelter on that Tuesday, the 4th, and darted out of his foster’s car, at 26th & King, after returning home from getting neutered and some teeth extracted. He was last seen wearing a lime green/brown collar with a red Salty Dog tag on it and he has a green bandage wrap around one of his front legs. He was last seen running up towards the greenbelt on Beacon Hill on Massachusetts about 5 days ago!!! Please call us at 206-898-3067 if you spot him!!! Please DO NOT CHASE HIM, he is scared and will run! We just need sightings so we can track his path to know where to set a humane trap.
As the message says, call 206-898-3067 if you spot the dog.
(Updated to include better description of where he was last seen — 3:30 p.m. 8/16)

Unfortunately, with spring we always get an increase in lost pet notices. Here’s another. Have you seen Cleo? She’s two years old and spayed.
