Lost pet alerts & community recovery

The first hour is everything. When a pet goes missing, the fastest route home isn't a poster on a lamppost the next morning - it's getting eyes on the street straight away. Supernormal turns a whole local community into your search party within minutes, and gives any finder an instant way to reach you.

A live demo - press “Mark Bandit missing” to watch the alert ripple out and a finder bring him home.

The network

How the alert network works

The moment you mark your pet as missing in the app, we ping nearby Supernormal owners, vets and kennels - the people most likely to spot your pet or have them handed in. If anyone finds them and scans the tag, you get the location of the scan and a way to talk, instantly.

More phones looking, plus a tag that works the second your pet is picked up, means a faster reunion.

How the tag works

If your dog is lost

1Don't panic - act fast. The first hour matters most, while your dog is likely still close.
2Mark them missing in the app to trigger the community alert.
3Search nearby first - dogs often double back; check gardens, hedgerows and your usual route.
4Call your microchip database and local vets to flag them as missing.
5Post in local lost-and-found groups with a clear, recent photo and the area.
6Leave a worn item and their bed outside your door - familiar scent can draw a frightened dog back.

If your cat is lost

Cats are different - most missing cats are hiding very close to home, not roaming. Search methodically: under cars, in sheds, behind anything they could squeeze into, at dawn and dusk when it's quiet.

Leave their litter tray and a worn item out, ask immediate neighbours to check garages and outbuildings, mark them missing in the app, and notify your microchip database.

Indoor cats get lost too - a bolt through an open door is disorientating for a cat that's never been out, so search even closer to home.

Found a dog or cat?

You might be someone's whole world right now.

If it's wearing a Supernormal tag, tap or scan it with your phone: the owner's details come up and they're notified straight away. No tag? Take the pet to any vet or rescue to check for a microchip, and report it found in local groups.

If it's safe to, keep the animal contained and comfortable while you sort the reunion.

Hoping vs looking

Why a smart tag beats a poster

A poster relies on the right person walking past at the right time and remembering a number. A scannable tag works the instant someone picks your pet up - wherever that is, whoever they are. Combined with the community alert, it's the difference between hoping and actively looking.
