IMPORTANT: If you must surrender an animal to Gratiot Animal Control please be aware that our county gives shelter animals to research. If you do not want your pet to be given to the Class B dealer for research you MUST REQUEST that it is NOT GIVEN TO RESEARCH when you release it to the county.
If you have lost a dog or a cat in or around Gratiot County, VISIT the shelter to see if your pet is there. Call the shelter at (989) 875-2221immediately!. When they are closed - leave a message on their answering machine (doesn't say to leave a message but it will record after the recorded message). Go to the shelter and POST a note on their door and they will contact you. It is critical that you notify Animal Control immediately if you want to get your pet returned to you! You only have days to recover your pet before it is too late! DO NOT WAIT...
The best way to have your lost pet returned to you is to put an identification tag on their collar or at least write your phone number on their collar. Ask your vet about microchipping too!

(Information from owner) This is ScooterPie, she is 10 months old and is looking for a "forever home". She strolled up to the house Thanksgiving weekend. I think someone dropped her off at the road. She adjusted to the indoors immediately and took right to the litter box. She lives and plays well with my two big dogs and almost understands the word "no".
She has had her first set of shots and passed the feline leukemia tests. Currently an indoor cat because she has not yet been spayed. Has already been thru her first heat cycle. Loves attention.
I can be reached at 989-763-1877, which is local to the Alma area. She is ready anytime and I'll even throw in the litter box and her rhinestone pink collar. |
