How It Works
1. If you wish to place an ad or contact an advertiser, please click
register to open an account
then follow these ten simple steps;
2. Click 'CREATE
AN AD'
3. Select a MAIN CATEGORY e.g. Lost Cats
4. Specify the details of your advert:
• Advert length - how long you want your advert to run for - drop down menu
• Advert title - The name of the item you are selling
• Country you are based in - drop down menu
• Advert description - include as much information as possible about your
item
5. Click 'SUBMIT'
6. Upload images if you want to. Select 'Choose file' and browse for the
image on your computer.
Please note the first image is free and extra images are £1.00 per extra image posted. There will be a link
to the full size image which will open in a pop-up window. Adding images,
especially if they are pictures you have shot yourself, will help reunite
your cat.
7. Click 'ENTER IMAGE INFORMATION'
and wait for the images to upload. The more images you want to upload, the
longer it will take. It will also depend on your internet connection speed.
Please be patient!
8. Click 'APPROVE' after checking
through all the details of your advert.
9. Check the transaction summary, which will give you details of your
account and your advert. If you want to select any of the extra options -
e.g. featured advert (£2.50) do so here. You can submit up to 5 images.
Once done, click 'SUBMIT'.
10. You will then be able to see TRANSACTION TOTALS. If all is correct,
click 'APPROVE TRANSACTION.' If you
have selected paid options you will be taken to a secure
paypal
page where you can either pay with your paypal account, or securely online
by credit or debit card. Be sure to select 'no postage required' on the
paypal page.

cat they have lost or found on LostMyCat.org?
To buy an item, simply click 'CONTACT

Buying on LostMyCat.org is as safe as

to get as much information about your cat from the finder before collecting,
and never meet anyone alone. Using LostMyCat.org is the same as using any
other classified advert service - Use your common sense.
