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

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.

Neighbor Andy sent the following notice:

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.

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.

Neighbor Liza Marie is searching for her missing chihuahua, Oreo, who went missing on August 14, and who was last seen on Ferdinand Street near Cleveland High School.

Update, late Tuesday night: Shadow is found! Matthew says: “I found her mewing outside about four feet up a bush around ten o’clock tonight.”

Have you seen Shadow? Shadow is a spayed, indoor kitty who made an escape from an apartment window at 17th Avenue South and South Stevens today. She is a very friendly kitty, about 2 1/2 years old and 5-6 pounds. She does have a microchip.
