Lost kittens near the High Rockies trailhead
Description
I lost my two kittens while hiking the Milner Pass Trailhead last night around 7:20 p.m. I remember them darting toward a stand of aspen near the Continental Divide overlook, just past the kiosk by the Alpine Visitor Center. One is a calico with a white blaze on the nose; the other a fluffy orange tabby with white paws. They’re small, curious, and very trusting, which is why I’m worried they’ve slipped into the brush and are frightened. I’ve spent the evening walking the spruce groves and creek banks near the visitor center, calling their names and listening for soft purrs. If you’ve seen two little felines around the High Rockies, please check the brush along the trail and near the parking area.

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.
