The Lathrop, Calif. owner of a cat named Squishy is overjoyed after she got word that her pet was alive and well — despite being found miles and miles away on the streets of San Francisco.
Squishy was reunited with his owner last week because of the efforts of a feral volunteer for the San Francisco SPCA. As the shelter tells SFGATE, volunteers regularly bring in feral cats to be spayed or neutered before being returned to their outdoor neighborhood.
This feral cat, however, was "very friendly," as SF SPCA spokesperson Krista Maloney tells SFGATE. When he was scanned for a microchip — something else the shelter staffers check for — they found he had gone missing a month ago from his home in Lathrop, nearly 80 miles away.

Probably someone who loved “Finding Nemo.” If you remember, Dory discovered the “baby” jellyfish, and called it “Squishy.”
This sort of useless knowledge is why I can’t remember important things!

We have a wonderful Choc. Lab Pittie Mix who is a bit over a year old now. Moose is wonderful. Never saw a dog wag his tail as much as Moosie does. We had a Pit-Rottweiller mix several years ago who was the most loving and easiest dog in the whole world. Many of our dogs have been from rescues and they are always “chipped”.

My wife has a 20 pound Main Coon cat. He’s huge. My female calico is 1/3 his size.
