I wonder if this rings a bell with anyone -

Yes it does. We have had a lost cat returned thanks to its French microchip.

If somebody had the will to do it I'm sure the owners could be traced even if they had moved from the address where the chip was registered.

I think if I'd moved back to UK with a chipped animal which then went missing one of my first moves would be to inform the French chipping outfit where I could be contacted if anybody did report finding it.

If any members have friends or relations in the Bristol area who could

get the details somebody here in France might be able to follow it up ?

Imagine the joy you could bring to the cats owner, a huge reward in itself.

Or maybe they have just dumped it, perhaps they had to return to France for a holiday or something, maybe its jabs were not up to date.

He certainly looks like an independant cat that would not pine and find food etc elsewhere.

I loved the nonchalant bit!

Will, did you re-register the chip in the UK to your new address or had you updated the French database with the UK address?

[Will]

The microchip numbers on all the French animals that came with us have been registered with Pet Plan to our current address in England.
