My friend has just taken in a ?3-4month old kitty she found sitting in the middle of the road without a collar. She was worried about traffic but although he might be chipped she has no way of knowing. She is putting up posters to say she has found him but it could of saved his owners (presuming he has any) alot of stress if he had an address attached..
Oh and dont worry if no one comes forward he will be off to the vet for a quick scan!!

This is the only thing that concerns me to be honest. If I suspected a lost cat then I would take it to the vet or rescue centre to be scanned for a chip however not everyone would know to do that!

Similar to all these stories in the newspaper recently about people getting struck by lightning when they've been sheltering under trees in a thunder storm I assumed everyone knew that this is a pretty daft idea but then again what I assume is common sense is not necessarily known to everyone!
