Nenette was found as a very small kitten in the woman's locker room at the city college my daughter attended, with 3 other kitties who were quickly adopted. My daughter brought her home, and in the next 4 months she became pregnant. She gave birth at home and took very good care of her babies. All of our cats got chips.

A year later, one of them, to whom she was very attached died. After this event Nenette got into a feud with her remaining daughter and left... We looked for her in all the pounds of the San Francisco Bay Area, in our neighborhood - nothing.

This winter, I received a phone call from Berkeley's pound, they had found Nenette in a neighbor backyard. Our address had changed multiple times and I did forgot to update my file at HomeAgain. But they had my cell phone number!

It was such a joy to have Nenette again in the family. She had a good coat but was very "petite". She recognized us right away and sleeps on my bed every night! Now the staff at the pound told me that they never had seen a cat found after so much time! I wonder what Nenettte did during these 7 years...
