This friday morning, little mister goes in for his neuter. When I called, the girl also asked me if I'd like him microchipped. I said yes, since with 4 kids and all their friends walking in and out all the time-you never know if someone small and furry may slip out the door. I don't have any intentions of allowing him to be an outside cat, we already have my neighbors cat that lives on my porch, so the house is protected from evil chipmunks and wascally wabbits.
The girl also said, and I hope she's right-The shelters cannot put a microchipped cat down. If she's right, I think that's wonderful, so even if an owner is hard to locate, the cat won't be euthanized.
Kairi has been told of this impending procedure, and it doesn't seem to bother him. Especially since I gave him treats after the call. Of course when he wakes me up friday morning, and gets no food or water...he may change his mind on the wisdom of my decision. The fact that he'll never spray my walls, furniture, children...may also be a distinct advantage.
