Lost Pets in Austin What to Do | Texas News

Your pet went missing? Don’t panic—here’s how to get them back fast in Austin. Start searching locally, then hit “lostatx” to connect with Animal Services and post photos everywhere. Found pets stay in shelters 3 days—bring ID and proof of ownership to reclaim them (fees up to $115). Microchips are a game-changer: dogs with chips are twice as likely to be reunited, cats even more so. The catch? Outdated registries. Starting Sept 2024, all Austin pets 4+ months old must be chipped. Good news: Travis County residents get free microchipping.
