Leopard gecko in terrarium, yellow with spots
Description
I lost my leopard gecko, Pixel, yesterday around 3pm. It’s about 6 inches long, pale yellow with irregular brown spots, and a chunky tail. I last saw it near the Kent Green on Main Street, by the Village Market, in a clear 6x8 inch terrarium with a blue LED light and a green lid. Pixel has sentimental value—the kids adore him, and we’ve had him for about four years. There are two identifying marks you should know: a thin black ring around the base of his tail and a tiny blue marker dot on the left front toe. If anyone finds Pixel, please get in touch. Really hoping to get him back for the kids.

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.
