West Seattle Blog? ? WSB Lost/Found Pets page marks its fifth ...

January 5, 2013 at 11:00 pm | In Pets, West Seattle news, West Seattle online | 3 Comments

The return of a lost Golden Retriever to her family tonight reminded us that today is the 5th anniversary of the WSB Lost/Found Pets page. In keeping with our mentioned-earlier resolution to ?make WSB more useful in 2013,? particularly by making sure everyone knows about free services offered here beyond 24/7 news, a few words about it: We haven?t kept count, but anecdotally, the page at westseattleblog.com/pets has helped at least a couple hundred pets reunite with their people. We never expected to have a lost/found pets sideline, thecats.jpgbut as WSB readership/participation grew after our turn toward news in winter 2006-2007, we started receiving requests to list them; on January 5, 2008, we launched the dedicated page as an easy-to-find place for listings, whether you?ve found a pet or lost one. Last year, we upgraded its format so each listing would have its own web address, enabling it to be shared if necessary (as with every story or page here on WSB, mouse over the ?Share This? link for a simple way to share it via Facebook, Twitter, e-mail, and/or dozens more sharing-service options). Once there?s a reunion, please let us know so we can update the listing and remove the details. We share our home with pets (the two cats in the photo above, both adult shelter cats when we adopted them) too, and are glad WSB can be of assistance in getting wayward animal friends home. Hope you don?t ever need to use the Pets page, but if you do ? e-mail info (and photo if available, jpg preferred) to editor@westseattleblog.com.
