    On FB, the only platform I use, there are large, localized groups for sharing lost and found pets. Lots of success stories. I helped one woman find her cat who had jumped into a truck and then out at a CVS near me. I looked for Jake a little bit then told her where I would put the live trap. She got him! Felt good.

      Yep. One of my former partner's wife is very active in finding pets in the area.

        Wow that is great! It's funny how social media usage evolves. I only use FB for our local HOA discussion group [which also finds pets but otherwise is for contractor recommendations or giving away household items], otherwise I scroll through Instagram at times to see friend updates. No twitter, or tik tok, I've even stopped using MySpace!

          Wife does Facebook, mainly for friends and family socializing.

          I don't do any of them.

            Just wait until MySpace turns into MyChart.

                LOL funny you said that. I just signed up for that a few days ago. Part of the process of establishing an account to get a primary car physician, I haven't gone to a doctor in a few years (and definitely not since moving to Minnesota).

                I'm also learning that getting an appointment for a specialty (like an ENT or dermatology) is usually a months-out wait. Thanks a lot, Obama.
