Thank you thank you Gloria, Janine, MaryChristine, Kat, Chris, Patti,
Tonya, Belinda (with apologies if I've left anyone out) for your
feedback--have compiled all your advice and sent to my friend and after
I've got advice on the law in IL--I'll try Alley Cat Allies--we'll
discuss our course of act
I would try calling the microchip record keepers and tell them you
are the owner (this would only work if you know his name), tell them you
have lost your paper work with her chip number on it and you want to
write it down for you're records. Ask them what her number is, if they
say she is
I agree. Your friend shouldn't go because she would be suspected. Get someone else to go, late at night. Don't get too close to the store itself, and open up the tuna/kfc. The cat should come to you. If there is a microchip I would be surprised. If there was one however, you just picked up a
unless the kitty came from a humane society or rescue that did chipjust cuz a cat SEEMS to be a stray, well, we all know how that goes

You know, when I was feeding my strays,
there was a young cat that belonged to a restaurant there. The cat was
always out & the owner said that the cat could come in when he wanted to
but sometimes just didn’t want to… Of course, when he closed up at
night, he didn’t go loo
Kerry,
Check with some of the animal shelters/animal control officers in the
area. More and more are being equipped with scanners - so no vet need be
involved just to find out if one is even there.
I like the KFC suggestion - but just in case the owner makes a stink, go
to http://www.alleycat.or
i would call around--a humane society/spca would be my first call before animal control--and find out what the laws are in your area. in some places, any outside animal is considered a stray and therefore you can pick it up and take it home. in others, however, that's not the case. in michigan,
Chances are good that if the person who has "adopted" Misha doesn't take the cat inside on weekends or evenings, esp. in the winter, that he didn't bother to pay the extra expense to have the cat microchipped. There are two ways to proceed (as I see it), explain to the person that Misha will mo
Kerry, I agree with Gloria - would be surprised if the cat was chipped, at least by the half-adopters. Can you lure the cat away from the building and out of site of the cameras (for instance - KFC thigh meat, esp warmed so the smell carries might make her walk right into a carrier set behi

check it unless you asked him/her to. And if you take her to your vet as
your cat, well...
I also doubt if talking to the owner again
