Everyone! Please microchip your pets. The chances of being reunited are so much greater if they are chipped. And if your baby ever escapes the house or yard go to every shelter in your area and fill out a lost pet form. Bring photos to leave there. And tear the shelter apart. Look in every room. Cats are sometimes found with dogs. Demand to look in the clinic. That's where Kuhio was being kept. We didn't even know that room existed and were not directed to search that room.
That's so sad. Poor Kuhio. RIP Kuhio. You made a very good point about micro-chipping.
