Is it possible to catch None in except statement?

Question

I'm working on a program that represents a month in number. Each month name and number are stored in a dictionary, with the key being the month name.

The program needs to take the month name as input and output its corresponding number. In case the provided input is not a month, output "Not found"
It always returns None if input isn't a month.
How to do this?
My code:

mon ={"January":1,
      "February":2, 
      "March":3,
      "April":4,
      "May":5,
      "June":6,
      "July":7,
      "August":8,
      "September":9,
      "October":10,
      "November":11,
      "December":12
}
try:
    num = input()
    print(mon.get(num))
except KeyError:
    print("Not found")

get() Can return a default value if there is no key. The None you were getting was the default return value for .get().

def foo(x):

    mon = {"January": 1,
           "February": 2,
           "March": 3,
           "April": 4,
           "May": 5,
           "June": 6,
           "July": 7,
           "August": 8,
           "September": 9,
           "October": 10,
           "November": 11,
           "December": 12
           }

    return mon.get(x, "Not found")

>>> print(foo("Test"))
'Not found'
>>> print(foo("July"))

Syntax: .get("key","Default value")
