Just had another example of why getting your cat microchipped is so important.
My wife took a call this morning about an old stray who had turned up in a village near us about a week ago. We popped over with a trap which the people who called us had agreed to set and keep an eye on. About an hour ago we got a call to say the cat was caught so we went and picked it up. As soon as we got it home my wife scanned the cat and found a chip. Tapping the number in to the website showed the cat was missing for 3 weeks from a home about a mile from where she was found. A quick call to the owner to give her the good news, then my wife was off again to reunite the grateful, tearful owner with the cat.
We get a number of such happy endings each year so the chips do work (and no, I do not have shares in a chip company ).
Cheers
Bob
