How many people should I invite to join my Search Party?

Invite a variety of people—friends, family, neighbors—so each can take at least one clear job (or a few) and your efforts run in parallel. For example, one person prints and posts flyers, another shares in neighborhood groups and tracks comments, someone contacts shelters/vets with your flyer, and another maps streets covered or checks nearby cameras. The more organized helpers you involve, the faster you cover ground and follow leads—significantly improving the odds of getting your pet home.
