Searching for a missing pet in Brisbane

Queenslander homes on stumps give cats an obvious refuge underneath — take a torch under the house before searching the street.

Start within 100 metres of where your pet was last seen, then widen out. Ask neighbours to physically open sheds, garages and under-house spaces — that single request finds more cats than any other step.

Who else to contact in Brisbane

Ring nearby vet clinics, your local council animal control or ranger service, and the closest shelter. Update your microchip registry with a current mobile number — a chip with stale details is the most common reason a found pet in Queensland doesn't get home.
