~Chip~

Chip is not my cat. He belongs to a family that lives a mile away. We thought he was a stray when he started hanging around the porch crying for my female cats. He was intact. We had him neutered and vaccinated. A collar and ID tag that i put on him prompted a call from his owners right away. They said he was their cat, and thanked me for the medical attention he received. We thought "that was that". Well, it's been almost two years now and Chip braves cars and coyotes to visit. He used to come multiple times a day. It has now diminished to a few times a week. When he arrives, we stop whatever we are doing and my husband [Chip doesn't like me, because I was the one who took him to the vet] will sit with him on the porch and give him treats and love. Here he is ....his arrival can be late at night or early in the morning. We never know when he's coming.

 

BTW: When i first met Chip he was in bad shape....he was underweight and beat up badly from being an intact "tomcat". Please be a responsible pet owner and neuter / spay your pets!!!
