Report a lost pet
MelSafe keep a record of any dogs and cats reported by their owners as being lost. MelSafe are able to match details from these reports with any dog or cat that may either be reported as found or impounded.
To ensure your lost dog or cat can be returned to you as soon as possible please ensure they are wearing a collar and tags as well as keeping their microchip details up to date.
