Remember that a pet-even an indoor pet-has a better chance of being returned if she always wears a collar and an ID tag with your name, address and telephone number and/or microchips. Be particularly wary of people who insist that you give or wire them money for the return of your pet. When talking to a stranger who claims to have found your pet, ask him to describe the pet thoroughly before you offer any information.
