They are both correct.

The first refers to an inanimate object;
the second refers to a person or animal.
  • When something is or was lost, it becomes or became no longer in someone’s possession.
  • When someone gets or got lost, he or she becomes or became devoid of his or her bearings or became confused as to his or her location.
