Found small gray rabbit with blue collar
Description
I found a small gray rabbit this afternoon around 2:45pm behind the CVS on Lake Road in Ashtabula Harbor. It's about 12 inches long from nose to rump, with soft gray fur, a white belly, and a blue fabric collar with a tiny silver bell that jingles when it hops. It has a little notch in its left ear and a faint scar on its right hind leg—unique features I hope will help. The rabbit seemed a little startled but is otherwise healthy, and I've kept him safe in a carrier with fresh greens and water while I try to help him get back home. If this is your rabbit, leave a note here and we can arrange a meetup.

How to safely return this item
A short checklist to protect you and the item during the handoff.
Verify the owner before handing it back
- Ask the claimant for a specific identifying detail before confirming.
- If valuable, ask for a photo with matching ID, receipt, or original packaging.
- Never post the precise location publicly. Share it only with a verified owner.
- Do not accept payment to return it. That is a red flag for a scam claim.
Meet in a safe, public place
- Police stations, café entrances, transport hubs, and shop foyers all work.
- Meet during daylight hours where there is CCTV and foot traffic.
- Avoid private homes, car parks at night, or isolated locations.
Bring someone with you
- Tell a friend or family member where you are meeting and when.
- Share your live location with them during the handoff.
- For high-value items, consider contacting your local police station for advice first.
Keep communication on lostandfound.io
- Use the in-app message thread so there is a record if something goes wrong.
- Do not move to WhatsApp, SMS, or email until you have exchanged a verifying detail.
- Never share bank details, government ID numbers, or copies of your ID.
