Together Again: A Happy Premonition
PetLinks’s reunification process is amazing! I can’t describe how shocked we were when Vinnie went missing. Vinnie was gone eight months. He’d got lost once before but we got him back. We have dogs too, and they go in and out so it’s hard to keep our cat inside. It was a month before we were moving that he got lost. It felt weird for a cat not to be able to get home and my son was so upset. One day many months later I heard myself calling one of my dogs a ‘kittycat’ because he was being beaten up by the other pets and that started me thinking about what had happened to Vinnie. The strange thing was that less than two hours later that same day I got the email from PetLink saying he’d been found! He was only a kitten when he was lost and seemed quite upset when I collected him from the Sonoma Humane Society. But he would have been almost feral if he’d spent all that time in the elements. Vinnie had been found in the area where we live and I have to believe someone was taking care of him. He might have been gone a while but he recognised his name. I was worried about bringing him home but it’s been fabulous. Now Vinnie has a collar as well as his microchip for ID. He sleeps with my son every night and my son is so happy, it really lifted his heart to get Vinnie back. I cannot thank you enough.
