With no microchip to tell the vet team who owned Ronnie, they contacted our Cornwall Adoption Centre to take him into care and continue his vet treatment, as well as the search for his owner.

Ronnie became a familiar figure at a Cornwall holiday park for 10 years. Staff noticed his advancing years and took him to the vet. He was found to have hyperthyroidism and bad teeth. With no microchip to tell the vet team who owned Ronnie, they contacted our Cornwall Adoption Centre to take him into care and continue his vet treatment, as well as the search for his owner. Sadly, no owner was found but he is now in his best health, having had thyroid and dental surgery, and needs a new home of his own. If you live in the Cornwall area and would like to offer Ronnie a home, visit the Cornwall Ad adoption Centre’s website. Cats Protection is campaigning for compulsory microchipping of pet cats across the UK, as is already the case for dogs. In England, the measure is expected to be introduced later this year. This year, players of People’s Postcode Lottery are supporting Cats Protection’S advocacy work and helping to cover the costs of looking after cats like Ronnie in our centres.
