“Oh my gosh, I missed you so much!”

That was the first sentence out of little Claudia’s mouth when she was reunited with her cat, Cursor. The sweet girl’s cat had been missing for three years, so it’s easy to understand why she was so excited when her parents surprised her with the beloved calico kitty that had been found safe and sound by a local animal shelter.

This is bound to put a smile on your face.

Their heart-melting reunion serves as a powerful reminder to pet owners.

Please chip your pets so they can get back to you should they get lost. It’s a painless process and it helps thousands of animals find their way home every year.
