For pet owners and residents

Pet owners

  • Spay or neuter your pets.

  • Identify your pets with a collar.

  • Put the owner's phone number on the collar.

  • Register your pets with your town's Zoonoses Control Center (where there is one).

  • Microchip your pets (where available).

  • Fence your property with wire mesh.

  • Provide a covered kennel, and plenty of food and water, so pets do not escape.

  • If your pet escapes, tell Friends of Lucky through the website or social media.

Community

  • Care for COMMUNITY animals together: water, food and shelter.

  • Ask your town government for the basic services guaranteed by federal, state and municipal law: shelter, registration, vaccination, emergency care and mass spay/neuter.

  • Check that these basic services are provided.

  • Report abuse and abandonment.

  • If an unidentified animal appears in your community, tell Friends of Lucky through the website or social media.

  • Share posts about lost or abandoned animals to support local independent rescuers and Friends of Lucky.

  • Open your heart to responsible adoption.
