Description
I found a medium-sized gray tabby this afternoon around 4:15pm in the Detroit Metro area, near the Fox Theatre in downtown Detroit. It has white paws and a blue collar with a tiny silver bell. I spotted him in the parking lot behind the theatre, just south of Grand Circus Park on Woodward Ave. He’s calm and curious, purring when I spoke to him, and he has a distinctive notch in his left ear and a slightly crooked tail—little features that could help his owner recognize him. If this is your cat, reply here so we can figure out a time to reunite him with his family.

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.
