Thanks to @karripeifer.bsky.social for reporting on this incredibly cruel scam.
Pet guardians are understandably vulnerable when a beloved pet is missing, and scammers are taking advantage of that emotional state and spoofing shelters' phone numbers to do it. Thanks to @axios.com for sharing an important warning.

My copilot today isn't ready to be adopted, but Goose is looking for a foster home. He started chemotherapy in March. Between treatments,we'd love for him to be out of the shelter with a foster who doesn't have kids or pets. #adoptmycopilot #fostermycopilot 1/2

My Monday copilot has understandable complaints about her travel accommodations. Despite her consternation at being kit-napped only to find herself in a TV studio, Scroop is a natural charmer. She's back at the @richmondspca to meet admirers. #adoptmycopilot

Most recent copilot, Frida, enjoyed her pup up after her adventure in local TV on Monday. She's a charmer and the cleverest girl. Meet her today at @richmondspca.bsky.social and #adoptmycopilot. p.s. Her adoption fee is waived!

Virginia is on the verge of becoming the nation’s largest no-kill state, a lifesaving milestone that can be accomplished with continued support from residents across the commonwealth. Getting there will take adoption, prevention and collaboration.
COMMENTARY: The save rate for homeless dogs and cats in Virginia’s shelters last year was 86% – just 4% shy of the nationally-recognized no-kill benchmark of 90%. Guest columnist Tamsen Kingry of the Richmond SPCA shares ideas to close the gap: virginiamercury.com/2025/04/14/v...

In case you're wondering, "get home from vacation 30 minutes before the time shift" is not one of the handy tips. Follow me for more cautionary advice.
