​Lost and Found

​There are social media lost and found pages for Grey and Bruce counties.
If you have lost a pet or found a pet, the local lost and found postings
are good to check. Additionally there are other resources.
Found A Cat?
  • Please read our Community Cats Document to make sure that the cat is not an owned outdoor cat or a feral cat.
  • If you would like to bring a cat into the Grey Bruce Animal Shelter, please call 519-372-1911 for an appointment. *Please note that animals will not be accepted without an appointment.

Feral Cats

Community Cats are defined as feral, unowned cats who are not candidates for adoption. Feral or Community Cats are cats who are not owned and are not sufficiently socialized to humans to be candidates for adoption. They are the end result of owned pets who were not spayed or neutered, and then escaped or were allowed to roam. Community cats tend to gather together where they form “colonies”. The growth in the number and size of these colonies is due to unrestrained reproduction, which produces litters of kittens for whom homes cannot be found, and who can’t be accommodated in already overcrowded animal shelters. see https://gths.ca/community-cats-programs/ for available local assistance in vaccinating and spaying/neutering cats.

​Grey Bruce Animal Shelter can lend live traps for taking the cats to be vaccinated and fixed. Please call 519-372-1911 for more information or to reserve a trap.
