Pets Under Police Security

A huge thank you to Fur-Ever Home Rescue and everyone who donated to help get these kitties vetted and ready for their next chapter! Your generosity and support make such a difference and help open the door for these sweet kitties to find their forever homes. We’re so grateful for this amazing partnership!

Don’t wait until your pet is missing to think about identification. Prepare now—just in case. We want every lost pet to spend as little time away from home as possible.

At PUPS, we see pets come in as strays for all kinds of reasons. Sometimes a dog slips out through an open door. A cat sneaks through a screen. A pet gets loose during a move, while someone is carrying groceries inside, or during an unexpected emergency.

And sometimes, the pet that comes through our doors is a beloved indoor-only pet whose family never imagined they would go missing.

The good news? Identification can make getting home much easier.

A collar with a current ID tag gives someone who finds your pet an immediate way to contact you. A microchip provides permanent identification if the collar or tag is lost. Having both gives your pet the best chance of being identified and reunited with you quickly.

We also encourage all pet owners to register for a FREE DocuPet tag: https://bit.ly/RegistrationMapleGrove

Every DocuPet tag is part of the National Pet Registry—the most trusted centralized database for pet identification and reunification in North America. The easy-to-use platform creates a comprehensive pet profile linked to your pet's unique tag, helping lost pets get home faster. If your pet is found, the finder can quickly access the information needed to reunite you.

Take a few minutes today to make sure your pet is prepared for the unexpected:

🐾 Current ID tag
🐾 Registered microchip
🐾 Up-to-date contact information
🐾 FREE DocuPet tag and pet profile

We know firsthand that even indoor-only pets can find themselves outside—and the right identification can make all the difference in getting them back home.

DocuPet provides designer pet tags with secure online profiles and lost pet services that ensure animals can always get home safely.

🐾 Interested in adopting a pet from PUPS? 🐾

PUPS isn’t set up to do adoptions directly, but our amazing rescue partners can help! Here’s how:

👉 Option 1: Already fostering with a rescue partner? Reach out to your organization about bringing a PUPS pet into their program!

👉 Option 2: Fill out this quick application, and we’ll send it to all of our rescue partners. If one is able to help, they’ll reach out to you directly:
https://forms.gle/5JdtGy2TCkteBhTWA

✨ Please keep in mind: you’ll need to go through the rescue’s approval process, and we can’t guarantee availability of specific pets—rescues work on a first-come, first-served basis.

Thank you for choosing adoption and giving a pet a second chance! ❤️🐶🐱

🐾 OUR RESCUE PARTNERS NEED YOUR HELP! 🐾

Our rescue partners are facing a shortage of foster homes and adopters, and that shortage is having a ripple effect on homeless pets in our community.

At PUPS, we care for animals who are waiting for their owners to come looking for them. When they aren't reclaimed, our rescue partners step up to give them a second chance. ❤️ But right now, many rescues simply don't have enough foster homes or adopters to take in the pets who need them.

This is where YOU can make a difference.

🏠 Can you foster?
Opening your home temporarily to a pet can be the bridge between a shelter kennel and a forever home. You provide a safe place to land while a rescue works to find their perfect match.

❤️ Can you adopt?
Giving a homeless pet a permanent home opens a spot for another animal who desperately needs help.

🐶🐱 Maybe you aren't ready for either?
Please share this post! You never know who in your circle might be looking for their next furry family member or who might be willing to foster.

Every foster home means a rescue can help one more pet. Every adoption means another spot opens up. And every share helps get the message in front of someone who may be able to say YES.

If you're interested in fostering or adopting, please fill out our application: https://forms.gle/5JdtGy2TCkteBhTWA. We can share your information with our rescue partners, and if they are able to assist, they can reach out to you directly.

You don't have to save every animal.
You just have to help save one. ❤️

🐾 Foster. Adopt. Share. Help make room for the next pet in need.

🐾 Let’s Chat About Chips! 🐾

Did you know a microchip can be your pet’s ticket home if they’re ever lost?

✔️ About the size of a grain of rice
✔️ Quick, safe, and affordable
✔️ Can be scanned at any vet or shelter for FREE

But here’s the key ➡️ A chip only works if your contact info is up to date.

🔑 Register the chip after it’s implanted
🔑 Update whenever you move or change numbers
🔑 Check your info at your pet’s annual vet visit

ID tags + microchips = the best chance of getting your pet home safe. 🏡💗

🚨 SCAM ALERT FOR PET OWNERS 🚨

A new scam is targeting families with missing pets using AI-generated photos.

Scammers may contact you claiming your pet has been found at a veterinary clinic, emergency hospital, or shelter. They often send a photo that appears to show your pet injured or receiving medical care and demand immediate payment for treatment before you can be reunited.

⚠️ Red flags to watch for:
• They pressure you to pay immediately.
• They refuse to let you speak directly with the clinic.
• They ask for payment through gift cards, payment apps, cryptocurrency, or wire transfers.
• The photo looks unusual, distorted, or doesn't quite match your pet.
• They contacted you after seeing your lost pet post online.

✅ Before sending any money:
• Ask for the name, address, and phone number of the facility.
• Hang up and contact the clinic directly using a phone number you find yourself.
• Request additional photos or a live video call.
• Verify that your pet is actually there before making any payment.

Scammers are becoming more sophisticated, but a legitimate veterinary clinic or shelter will understand your need to verify the situation.

If your pet is missing, stay alert and share this warning with friends and family. Your urgency to find your pet is exactly what scammers are counting on.

For more resources, or to file a lost or found pet report, go to PetFBI.org.
