Return To Home Challenge

Most estimates say that the number of pets that become lost each year is roughly 10 million. Overall, one in three pets will be lost at some point in their lifetime. Staggering statistics but they're not just numbers on a page - each one, a pet with a loving family desperate to to find them and bring them home safely.

Unfortunately, the number of lost pets in shelters who make it home is very low. The number of lost dogs getting home has improved, but the odds of a lost owned cat in a shelter being reunited with their owner is just 2%.

This week we're focusing on lost cats, and how we can improve our strategies to get more of them back home. We spoke with someone who has helped thousands of cats get home, Lost Cat Finder, Kim Freeman.
