Description
I lost my black-and-white tuxedo cat named Milo yesterday around 3pm. He's about 9 pounds, with a short coat, bright green eyes, a tiny notch in his left ear, and he wears a blue collar with a brass tag that says Milo. I last saw him near the Brookhaven Public Library on Main Street in downtown Southwest Mississippi; he slipped into the alley between the bookstore and the cafe. He's very friendly but skittish with strangers, and I'm really worried—he's microchipped but I don't know if the info is up to date. If anyone finds him, please contact me; I miss him a lot.

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.
