Description
I found a grey tabby cat this afternoon around 4:15pm near the Charlevoix City Marina on Bridge Street. It's a medium-sized cat with short fur, mostly grey, and white paws and chest, and it was wearing a blue collar with a small silver bell. There’s a small notch in the right ear and a white heart-shaped patch on the chest—two features that could help identify it. It seemed friendly and I kept talking to it while I looked for any ID, but there wasn’t a tag. If this is your cat or you know who it belongs to, please reach out; I’d love to help reunite them.

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.
