My friend did this for me when we lost our family cat. Unfortunately we didn't find him (he was quite old) but the amount of awareness and people who saw and engaged with the adverts where incredible. We still get people asking today if we ever did find him.

Any ideas for alternatives?

It's commonly used in clickbait headlines. If you're using an ad account that Facebook doesn't consider very trustworthy, you'll have a difficult time getting ads with certain attention-grabbing words approved.
