Grey dwarf hamster with blue harness, lost near Duval St
Description
I lost my grey dwarf hamster yesterday around 3pm near Sloppy Joe's on Duval Street in Key West, Florida Keys. The little guy is about the size of a ping-pong ball, with cinnamon-gray fur and a white belly, and there’s a small brown spot behind its left ear. He’s wearing a light blue harness with a tiny silver bell that still jingles when he scurries. This critter means the world to me; he’s named Nori and I’m worried sick—he loves to hide in dark corners and squeaks when I call him. If you see a tiny, fast whisker-master darting around the back alleys near Mallory Square, please message me; I’ll be forever grateful.

How to safely get your item back
A short checklist to protect you and the item during the handoff.
Verify the finder before meeting
- Ask them to describe a detail not shown in your listing, such as an engraving, scratch, or contents.
- Request a clear photo of the item from an angle you did not post.
- Do not pay any release, shipping, or storage fee.
- Do not share your full address until you have verified them.
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.
