This is Smudge now returned to his happy owner. In September he managed to escape in the Herrada area near Almoradi and be taken to the Shelter some 4 weeks later. In the meantime his mum had to return to England.
A volunteer found he had a Microchip but it had not been updated fully. This volunteer posted the story and photo on her FB, which was viewed by a friend of the owner.
She duly contacted the Shelter to arrange a foster home for him while she made the necessary arrangements to have him brought to England.
He arrived there a few days ago. However, this story goes to prove not only how useful it is to have your animal micro-chipped but to also ensure that you update it.
