Last Tuesday, we received a call about a sick cat in Midleton. She was very thin and dehydrated. We brought her to Sinead at the Cloyne Veterinary Clinic and an examination revealed that she was already neutered and very old. Ads were posted on the internet, posters were placed, leaflets were distributed, and Miss Marple, as I named her because she was surrounded by mystery, took residence in my study. Although the caller thought the cat had been dumped, I was convinced someone was looking for her and decided to keep looking. Well, Miss Marples real name is in fact Lucky (very appropriate) and she is 19 years old. She had been missing for a month and her owners thought she was gone away to die, until today, when their son saw one of my posters. 20 minutes later, the tears were rolling and Lucky was in the arms of her mammy :) Moral of the story? Dont give up and never assume too much. So many cats are not reunited with their owners because people assume they have been dumped... Em
