Dog found in Shoprite Parking Lot

Is this your scared puppy?

Hoboken411 reader Ian and his wife found this cute pooch frantically running around the parking lot of the ShopRite supermarket around 4pm this afternoon. They contacted Hoboken PD – who didn’t receive any calls for a missing dog matching this description.

This puppy is scared, and hasn’t been neutered as of yet. He’s very small, and they suspect it’s some kind of Terrier / Chihuahua mix. Probably just a few months old.

If this is yours – or you know who it belongs to – please email Hoboken411 with your contact info, and I’ll put you in touch with those who are holding him now.

Hoboken Lost and Found HQ

Hoboken Lost and Found Reminder

Just a brief refresher for the Hoboken Lost & Found section here, specifically if you’ve FOUND something that you’d like to return to it’s rightful owner.

If you look at my list below – one the best and easiests way to help – is to snap a photo of what you found – and simply just bring it to Hoboken Police Headquarters. This way, you can spread the word by sending a photo to Hoboken411 – but the person can claim their missing item(s) at Police HQ at any time (and you won’t have to be involved at that point forward). This will also help deter some people from trying to claim something that doesn’t actually belong to them. That type of person typically doesn’t like police stations.

And bookmark this URL for future use:

Report your Hoboken Lost and Found items here

This will be the section where you can try your luck at finding your property (or the owner of found property) in Hoboken. Please leave a comment – with as much detail as possible, and your email or phone number if you can.

If you’re not comfortable with leaving your personal email address, either sign up for a new one to be used solely for this purpose, or ask if people can email 411 if they’ve found what you’re looking for, and I’ll connect the two of you.

The new feature can be accessed in the top menu bar:

Everything Else > Lost and Found > Hoboken Lost and Found HQ

Some other guidelines for this section:

  1. No pets! Send an email to Hoboken411 if you’ve lost or found a pet. “Living beings” get treated differently from material items.
  2. Try calling the appropriate places first. Like the Hoboken Police (201-420-2100) or the respective form of transportation you took (Cab, NJ Transit, PATH, Ferry, etc.)
  3. When finding valuable items, be less specific. In other words, leave out model numbers, etc. This will help ensure the proper person claims it.
  4. When in doubt – it’s always best to drop found items off at the Hoboken Police Station downtown. You can leave a note here if you’ve done that.
  5. Stick specifically to lost and found. Either the item(s) in question or generally helpful tips. Bashing on here helps no one.

That’s about it! Good luck with your stuff!

Tabby Cat found in Hoboken

Orange cat found on Willow Ave. in Hoboken – is he yours?

Earlier this week, Hoboken411 reader Michelle found an orange long haired tabby/ maine cat was found under a van on Willow Ave between 10th and 11th Street. He followed people into the basement of a restaurant.

“He is super friendly allowing us to pick him up, pet him and check his paws. Has a red and black striped collar on. Front claws are declawed and the back are short. He obviously was an indoor cat. Currently is safe and warm. Is being taken Monday to get scanned for a microchip.”

If anyone recognizes this missing cat or would like to foster please email asunshinegirl84@gmail.com

Zach the cat has gone missing!

2/24/2011:

Have you seen a tabby cat with a lazy eye?

Hoboken411 reader Kristi is very interested in helping Zach the cat’s owner find him! These signs were posted uptown near 12th and 13th Streets in the Washington / Hudson area. Call (617)851-6739 if you spot him!

“I saw a few of these signs uptown in Hoboken starting yesterday and felt bad… My friend called the guy and told him we’d try to help. There’s something sweet about a guy who names his cat even though the kitty doesn’t really respond when called! Maybe you can put it on your site and someone will see the orange cat? The kitty’s got to be somewhere. If anyone can reunite owner and cat, 411 can! The signs say that the orange cat got loose while the owner was taking him to the car a few days ago. I called him, and the kitty is still missing. If enough people keep their eyes open, watching their backyards and under cars, maybe they’ll see something. Thanks!”
