Black Seiko metronome with red pendulum
Found a small black Seiko metronome with a bright red pendulum weight. I spotted it this afternoon around 2:15pm in the parking lot behind the Joplin Public Library on Main Street, near the bike racks. It’s got a blue guitar sticker on the front and the bottom is etched with the initials 'J.R.' in silver. The case is a bit scuffed but it still ticks reliably when tested. If you’re the owner, I can meet you at the library info desk to return it, or wherever you prefer around downtown.
Golden-brown Syrian hamster with white belly
I lost my golden-brown Syrian hamster yesterday around 3pm near the Joplin Public Library on Main Street. It's a tiny guy, about the size of a ping-pong ball, with fluffy golden fur, a white belly, and a small white patch on his chest. He has a slightly lighter left ear and a tiny scar on his right hind paw from a little tumble last week. He was in a blue travel cage, but he slipped out while I was packing up a snack for our walk. My daughter adores him; he's really special to us, and I'd be grateful for any help finding him.

It feels like a kid's favorite, and I’d love to help get it back to its owner.
Found red guitar capo with sun sticker
I found a bright red guitar capo this afternoon around 3:15 pm, tucked behind the bench outside the Joplin Public Library on Main Street. It's a lightweight plastic capo with a snug black rubber grip and a slightly squeaky hinge. There's a white sun-shaped sticker on the top edge and a small dent on the metal bar from a bump, easy to spot. I know how much a guitarist relies on their gear, so I'm hoping the owner sees this and can pick it up from me near the library. If you're missing a red capo with a sun sticker, drop me a line and we'll figure out a time to meet.
Lost iPad Pro 11 with pink cat sticker
I lost my black 11-inch iPad Pro yesterday around 3pm near the Joplin Public Library on West 2nd Street. It's in a gray Speck case, and the back features a pink cartoon cat sticker with the initials 'A.J.' engraved near the bottom edge. The screen has a small scratch along the top-right corner, but otherwise it's in good condition and holds priceless photos of my grandmother and some Notes from a project I'm working on. I really need it back; those files are sentimental and I can't replace them. If someone found it, give me a shout and we can arrange a pickup.

The brand label reads UrbanEase, and there's a tiny blue enamel pin shaped like a starfish attached to the inner pocket. I know losing something like this is stressful, so I'm hoping to return it to its owner.
Lost: Black-and-white border collie mix with scar
I lost my dog yesterday around 6pm in Joplin. He's a black-and-white border collie mix, about 50 pounds, with a small scar above his left eye and a white blaze down his chest. He wears a neon green collar with a metal tag showing my phone number, and he tends to wag his tail nervously when he sees strangers. Last seen in the Walmart parking lot on Range Line Road near the 20th Street entrance; he will sometimes bolt toward cars if he gets scared. This dog is family to me and my son—he's helped him cope with anxiety, and he has sentimental value. If anyone spots him, please text me; I just want him home safe.

Gray Samsung Galaxy Tab A 8-inch (cracked screen)
I lost my gray Samsung Galaxy Tab A 8-inch yesterday around 3pm. I was at the MSSU campus area near the bookstore on East Newman Road, by the benches outside the student union. The tablet has a black silicone case with a small yellow sticker on the back and a cracked screen from a fall last week. It’s about 8 inches diagonally, light gray, and I use it daily for class and client calls—it has a lot of work stuff on it, so I’m worried. If anyone found it, please reach out; I really need it back, and I can meet you near MSSU to pick it up.

Black velvet evening gown with silver zipper pull
I lost my black velvet evening gown yesterday around 6pm after the charity gala at the Landers Theatre, near 407 S Main St in Joplin. It's a floor-length size 6 gown with a sweetheart neckline, a detachable satin belt, and a silver heart-shaped zipper pull. There’s a small wine stain on the hem and a tiny snag on the left sleeve, otherwise it’s in decent shape. It was a gift from my grandmother and holds a lot of sentimental value, especially since she passed away last year. If anyone found it, I’d be really grateful to get it back—it’s not just clothing, it’s a memory.

Gold-tone bracelet with fox charm and initials engraving
I lost my gold-tone bracelet yesterday around 3pm near the coffee shop on 7th Street in Joplin. It's a slim 6.5-inch bracelet with a tiny orange enamel fox charm and a small heart bead, and the clasp is stamped with the initials 'A.J.' plus a light scratch along the side. It was a gift from my mom and really means a lot to me; I wore it daily. I think I last saw it near the benches by Java Junction outside the bookstore at 7th and Main, but it could've slipped off anywhere along that block. If anyone found it, email me at [email protected] and we can arrange a meet-up to get it back.
Silver necklace with blue sapphire, engraved A.J.
I lost my silver pendant necklace yesterday around 3pm near the Joplin Public Library on Main Street. It's an 18-inch sterling silver chain with a heart-shaped pendant that holds a tiny blue sapphire in the corner, and the back is engraved with the initials A.J. The clasp feels a bit stiff, and I think the spring might be bent, so it could’ve slipped off while I was walking by the library steps or crossing Main Street near the bookstore. It means a lot to me—my mom gave it to me last year, and I’m really hoping someone picked it up and kept it safe. If you found it, drop me a note here.
