Distribution David and April Hilton-Sykes, Publisher Letter to the Editor Call about lo st p ets im m ed iately To the Editor: Many people are so concern ed when they either lose or find an animal that they either do nothing, or really just don't know what to do. There are a number of things that need to be done, offer cold water and food to the animal. Especially in these days of horrible heat, it takes a very short time for an animal to become dehydrated. Their temperatures rise rapidly. The water and shade will help take care of this, and their temperatures should start go ing down immediately. After these are done, follow the directions below as rapidly as possible. Call the radio stations, and ask them to broadcast, giving the age, breed (as close as possible, age, sex, color, and if it has a collar on it). If the dog or cat has a rabies tag, or a Pioneer Humane Society tag on it, the animal is on their way home before this time. Call the Hermiston Herald and the East Oregonian. They will publish found animals free. If you have lost an animal, of fer a reward, even if it is not a large reward. It has also been found very useful to get out flyers, and stuff them in the neighbor's paper boxes, and further afield with these flyers, or to get some children to do it for you for very little. Just remember how much your animal is worth to you. Call the veterinarians' of fices, giving the same informa tion you gave to the radio sta tions and papers. They may have had the animal brought to them, or they may have some news about it. Then call the Pioneer Humane Society in Hermiston, 367-2961, or Pendleton, 276-0181. Also call Pet Rescue, 367-7066. The more promptly these things are called out, the more rapidly we as a group can go to work finding the animals, and get them hack to their righful owners. Also very imporant, if you find your animal or the owner ot the animals, please call us and Pet Rescue. It's only fair, and is appreciated deeply Our job is to help you, hut we must have your cooperation. It is really appreciated. Thank you. (Please clip this so you will have it at hand to use as reference. It will come in handy.) Sincerely, (s) Roberta Davis Pioneer Humane Society P.O. Box 316, Hermiston 97838.
