Our cat went for a wander nearly three years ago and never returned home. We searched, posted online/lostpets/local fb pages. Put up posters and contacted local vets/cat charities. Nothing. Stupidly hadnt got round to chipping him. Was always on my endless list of things to sort. Three years later we had obviously stopped looking, grieved and moved on.
Scrolling through fb and a gentleman that lives up the road from me posted a photo of a cat that had been living in his garden for three weeks. My fur baby! I knew it was him straightaway.
So happy. My DS is ecstatic. My DP can't quite believe it.
Anyway, my joy has been a bit shortlived as the reality of the situation is now setting in. One year ago we got a dog. Friendly, good with cats and kids. How do I go about introducing them? Will I be able to settle my cat into what is now a dogs home?
Also my cat has clearly been looked after by somebody for the past few years. Furnished in lovely condition and he looks in good health. Is there somebody out there missing him? Is it selfish not to make the effort to find them? I need to get him to vets for a health check and I'd like to get him chipped. This leads me to worry what if he has since been chipped by a 'new' owner? What happens then?
