When your cat goes missing using posters or leaflets is one of the best ways to get your missing cat in front of as many local people as possible.
However, it can be stressful trying to design a missing cat poster or leaflet, so here I am going to give you some easy tips to help you.
If you are not good with technology and find design difficult I can offer you some advice to make this task so much easier.
Above is a leaflet/poster I have designed and it only took a couple of minutes. Firstly you need to join a design website call Canva. The link is here www.canva.com.
When you have got to the Canva website, then join up for a free account. Once you have logged into your free account you need to search lost pet poster by using the search bar which is just below where is says what do you want to do today?
There will be a huge selection of missing pet posters that will come up on the website that you can chose from. Then choose a poster that is easy to read and will stand out.
Choose one of the leaflets that are free, if they have a small crown or a pound sign on the right hand side of the poster you will need to paid for this poster. So choose one with no crown or pound sign and this will be free.
Below are some examples
Once you have chosen your poster, you can easily edit on the link it says to customised this template. Add your information the template, add your cats photo and details of area and a contact number. Once this is done you can save the poster on the top right hand side and then download to your computer.
Once down loaded to your computer you can print this poster out at home or send it to a printing company.
I use a company called Helloprint to print out my posters, you can contact them at www.helloprint.co.uk. I find the cost very reasonable and the turn around is very quick.
Once you have you poster and leaflets you can then distribute them out to the local community. Good luck finding your missing cat .
