Elyse Fulton who is the owner of a female cat named Fergie was very sad when she left Fergie with a family friend when she was a kitten back in 2006.
When Elyse and her relatives left for a vacation shortly after she adopted Fergie, she left her kitten with a cat sitter who was trusted to watch over Fergie.
If there is one thing about kittens that I know from experience dealing with the youngest cat of my family who is named Burt, is that cats like to go outside the home to take a walk around the neighborhood.
In the case of Fergie, when she left the Fulton home to roam around the neighborhood, she never returned to her owner’s home.
When Elyse and her relatives returned from their vacation, she was disappointed that Fergie may have been lost forever.
However since Fergie had a microchip installed on her before the Fulton family went on vacation, the reunion of Fergie and her owner was just a matter of time since Fergie was in the neighborhood throughout the 10 years that she was not in the possession of her owner.
However last week a neighbor left Fergie at a local animal hospital. When the veterinarian found the microchip in Fergie’s possession, he called the Fulton home to inform them the good news that Fergie had been found after a 10 year separation from her family.
This story has a great ending since when Fergie reunited with her owners, according to Elyse, it appears that Fergie still remains the sweet cat that she has always been after she was adopted when she was six months of age.
Another case of chipping pays off. Wow!
Chipping a dog or cat does make it easier for owners to find their lost cats and dogs.
Every cat is different since some of the cats like to be near me and purr in my presence while other cats stay away from me and stay in my nephew’s bedroom.
I know what you mean since technology is growing fast these days.
Fergie is one great looking cat. I agree with you.
Cat are very looking pets to have as your best friends.
didn’t realize we’ve been chipping our pets for a decade already
I guess chipping dogs and cats has been around longer than 10 years.
it is the GPS thing which is younger, perhaps. time keeps getting away from me
I have read articles on the news blogs that there are some dogs and cats who are older than 10 years of age who have micro chipped by their owners.
yeah, I can’t keep track of stuff like this anymore
What an amazing story!
My pleasure to share these wonderful stories on this site.
Lovely story, glad this family was reunited with Fergie and that is really nice to know. Cats particularly Toms do wander off as it is their nature.
That is one character flaw of Burt who is about seven months of age.
