After feeding him, she noticed that his fur was long and his tail was damaged, indicating that he had been outside for some time. Marcela Bausson, a volunteer at the Cholet SPA, then stepped in to help.

Using her reader, she discovers that he has a microchip. “Bingo, he could have been identified by a vet!”, she rejoices. Quickly, the real owner, now settled in Vendée, is contacted.

“She had looked for him everywhere”

“She immediately spoke of a Christmas miracle. She had looked for him everywhere, without success, and she was so happy”, continues Marcela Bausson. Indeed, Minato had been missing for two months, after escaping during a move.

“He never left the house. A door had been left open and he had been scared because of the noise of the furniture…”, explains the owner.
