Leopard gecko in orange with white patch
Description
I lost my leopard gecko yesterday around 3pm near the public library on Main Street in downtown Klamath Falls. It's about 4 inches long, bright orange with a sprinkle of black spots and a pale yellow belly. It has a tiny white patch above its left eye and a slight kink at the base of its tail - those features help identify it in a crowd. It's generally active, eats small crickets, and I keep it in a glass terrarium with a blue lid. I'm really worried - this gecko means a lot to me because it was a gift from my sister, and I'd be so grateful to get it back if anyone's seen it. If you've spotted it, a heads-up would mean everything.

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.
