Description
Yesterday around 3:15pm I was cleaning Mochi's terrarium when he must've slipped out through the living room door and vanished. I spent the next hour poking around under couches and along baseboards, but no sign. He’s a bearded dragon, about 14 inches long from head to tail, with a tan body and a bright orange beard. There’s a small black V-shaped mark on his back near the shoulder and a microchip ID #981234. He’s my little buddy and this little guy has sentimental value to me. If anyone spots him near the Home Depot on Andrews Highway in Midland, please text me right away.

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.
