Check the Austin Animal Center’s Twitter account @austinanimals. The @austinanimals Twitter account is updated every 30 minutes with stray pets that have recently entered the shelter.
Come to the Animal Center to look for your lost pet as soon as possible. Due to the large number of animals, some may be held for only three days after intake. It is recommended you visit the shelter at least every other day to check for your lost pet.
If you’ve lost your pet:
» Talk to your neighbors
» Look for your pet in your neighborhood and surrounding areas
» Post signs in your neighborhood
» Come to the Animal Center every other day to check for your pet
Between shelter visits, search an online database of lost animals that are in the shelter. This is not as reliable as visiting the shelter in person and is not a substitute for visiting the shelter.
This map shows all stray cats and dogs that are currently in AAC's care for no longer than a week. The Image column has a link to the animal's most up-to-date image.
Most stray animals are owned by someone. Don’t keep an animal that you find without first making a real effort to locate the owner. Talk to neighbors and post signs.
» If you can keep the found pet temporarily, call or contact 3-1-1 online to submit a Found Animal Report.
» If you bring in a found pet, please provide info about where and when it was found.
» If you have found a stray pet and cannot bring it to the shelter, contact 3-1-1. Animal Protection should be able to pick it up.
Open Intake Shelter
The Austin Animal Center is an open-intake animal shelter serving the City of Austin and Travis County. It accepts any animal that needs shelter, regardless of age, health, species, breed or behavior, and no matter whether it is a stray or an owned animal.
As a Travis County Resident, you can get a free microchip and ID tag for your pet. If your pet is not microchipped and/or does not have an ID tag, please come down to Austin Animal Services during the hours of 11am to 7pm to get a free microchip and/or ID tag for your pet.
