SUMMARY: After three years apart, Bella the 17-year-old cat has reunited with the Ferrell and Speese families on Meadowview Circle. Initially thought lost forever, Bella’s disappearance led both families to assume she had passed away. Their hopes were revived when a good Samaritan brought Bella to a veterinarian, who scanned her microchip. This reunion highlights the importance of pet identification, especially after events like Hurricane Katrina when microchipping became vital. Dr. Chris Duke emphasizes updating contact information for microchips. Bella is now settling back into her home, and her families are thrilled to have her return.
