Morgan the Missing Cat dies at age 17

Many people have heard me talk about Morgan, the cat who was reunited with our technician/practice manager and her family, five years after disappearing.  Someone found Morgan near a horse barn and he was unable to walk on one leg. He was identified at the humane society by his microchip. His owner, Cyndi, rushed to pick him up and bring him back to our hospital so we could repair his broken leg. Without the microchip he would have been euthanized. It is not surprising that we like microchips so much.

Morgan recovered completely after his surgery and could walk and run without limping. Morgan liked going outside and just hanging out with the family, including the family dogs, Labrador Retriever Kailey and Doberman Benny. Morgan had a never stop attitude, even while healing from orthopedic surgery.
