Leo's still lost, and we're still looking. We've got two efforts to push at this time.
Outreach We want to expand the outreach to notify even more people that Leo is missing so that we can get more sightings. We're confident that more outreach = more sightings. Some recent efforts in addition to fliering include a Letter to the Editor in the Alexandria Gazette Packet, and both FindToto robo calls and bilingual post cards with Leo's cute mug sent to neighbors surrounding the sighting locations from last week. (Thank you so much to those supporters who helped to set up and fund these efforts!) We want to spread the word even further by posting information about Leo on neighborhood listserves, home-owner associations, blogs, and other venues. If you're on such a list and able to post for us--please let us know and we'll get you electronic version of the press release, the flyer, and a picture. Leave a comment if you're able to post for us!
Fundraising for Lost Pet Tracking Leo's foster parents have now established a ChipIn account to raise money to have Pure Gold Pet Trackers back to the new sighting area to see where Leo has been traveling recently. The moment we hit the $300 mark, we are calling PGPT. If a handful of Leo's supporters can each chip in a little bit towards that service, that money can be raised quickly and we can get that track under way. Please see the ChipIn menu item on the right side of the page to contribute easily and securely via PayPal. Funds raised will be turned over to ARCBCR to then pay for the lost pet track.
Many thanks to all who have helped so far--and all who will continue to help!

PS This is what the postcard looks like that has been sent out to 300 neighbors surrounding Douglas Park (Quincy & 16th Streets in south Arlington):
