Well, somebody's waking up to their family pet dead tomorrow!

Microchips in domestic animals is a great step

Meanwhile, if it will provide a bit of relief to what for many people can be a startling experience (seeing the injured and dying cat), most spiritual teachers (Buddhist, Hindu etc) teach that the consciousness of any beast is immediately reincarnated.

Thus the physical death is real to human perception, but the "suffering" is only momentary and instant well-being is restored in the rebirth to a new physical body.

PS- TFan, we are getting some of that Gulf rain blast that you guys experienced last year....about a foot of rain in just under ten days.

The lake that abuts my backyard has flooded about 50% of my lawn. We can this afternoon see just the top two inches of a standard height chain link fence

We got so much rain this year and then it basically stopped in July. I'm thinking we got around 25 inches in a couple of months. It helped out the state though, most everything is full.

I can use some rain now though, I hate watering the yard.

Where did I say anything to do with your returning comment? I mentioned nothing about roaming cats, feral cats, TNR'd cats. I mentioned missing cats, where most are indoor only that managed to escape somehow, someway, normally by the front door being left ajar.

Sorry, I wasn't clear enough. I was commenting on the micro chip thing. You may have a point. We don't use them with our cats, but I reckon it's a good idea.

Gotcha.

yea man, at $10 a pop, it's well worth it for the bit of
added security. They're pretty reliable. They will
come out on pets that are malnourished and skinny, though, but overall they work great. My adoption fee is the cost of the pet. None leave without it.
