Searching for a missing pet in Tauranga
Beach and estuary edges draw lost dogs in Tauranga, and holiday-home sheds are a classic accidental cat trap.
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.
