(CLAIR) – Losing a pet is a traumatic experience for any pet owner.
When you lose a pet in Simi Valley, the first thing you should do is contact the Ventura County Animal Shelter. The shelter is an amazing resource that can help you find your lost pet.
Perhaps your pet has been picked up by animal control. But, did you know, residents that rescue a lost pet from the streets are also permitted to upload images to the shelter website? If you’re reading this worried about a lost dog or cat, there is a chance your lost pet is resting comfortably in a good Samaritan’s home right now.
The shelter also publishes photographs and other information to help desperate owners reunite with lost dogs, cats, rabbits, turtles, birds and other animals. The Simi shelter is located about three miles from Moorpark College and can house up to 40 animals at a time.
In addition to reuniting owners with their pets, the facility offers services such as, the intake of stray and surrendered animals, pet adoptions and pet licensing.
If you’ve recently lost a pet, be sure to check the https://www.vcas.us/search-our-animals/ website for information and to search their database of animals found in Simi Valley.
