🚨Lost cat in Belfast?Emergency help to bring your cat home fast.

PawAlarm turns your missing-pet report into a search alert on Facebook and Instagram. It is shown to the people who live and get around near the spot where your cat was last seen – within 1 mi of Belfast, that's about 35,000 people. The alert goes live within 60 minutes. Anyone who spots your cat reports the sighting on your search page, and you get it by email straight away.

Check your home and the area around the escape point carefully. Look under cover and ask the people next door to check inside sheds and garages. A frightened cat may stay hidden without answering your calls.

Of the 17 cats around Belfast reported home again, half were back within 5 days. 59% were back within a week. So the first days are what matter: the sooner the neighbours know, the better the chance that someone who has seen your pet gets in touch. That is why PawAlarm shows your alert to the people around Belfast within 60 minutes.
