Wow. This is great information. Our daughter has a Pommie that was found wandering out in the country. The people who found her followed most of the rules.....contacting authorities, shelter, making posters, checking lost ads. No one claimed her even after 4 months. Meg was then allowed to adopt her. Sometimes Meg looks at Moxy and sadly wonders if someone is missing their Pommie. Moxy is an extremely wonderful dog and adores children. She is a runner, and in my heart, I believe that Moxy ran away and her owners couldn't catch her. Just wonder what the circumstances were that they were unable to connect with the information about her.
Our daughter's boyfriend just found his in-door kitty that has been missing since late January. It was very weak and afraid of dd's bf and even though it had been very loved. Strange circumstances do make animals appear different than their normal loving selves. At least 3 of mine would fall into the xenophobic category.
Our local vet says that he is amazed at the amount of lost pets they get in that no one ever inquires about. Totally uncalled for in a small community.
Again, thank you for this information. Will remember it. ~Joanne~
