Description
Found this fluffy gray hamster this afternoon around 4:15pm in the Fayette Mall parking lot off Nicholasville Road, near the food court entrance. It’s tiny—about the size of a ping-pong ball—with soft gray fur, a white belly, and a sky-blue harness with a tiny silver bell that jingles when it moves. The little guy seems healthy and curious, just a bit rattled by the cars passing by. If this is your hamster, I’d love to help get it back—meetups can happen near the Fayette Mall entrance or by the bus stop on Nicholasville Road to make it easy.

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.
