Found pets can be scanned for micro chips at the Banfield Vet Clinic in Petsmart, other vet clinics and by animal control. If chipped, but not current info Brazos Lost and Found Pets, below, is a wizard at tracking them down.
These are helpful tips for reuniting wayward critters. Please note are ACTION items, including placing free found ads in The Eagle, where to get checked for micro chip.

One tip I saw recently was to ask the claiming owners for a receipt from their vet or call the vet to confirm ownership. My vet does have a photo of my dog/cat on my receipts. Or you can ask for photo of the animal.
Also, putting a sign out where animal was found might be helpful.
