Are you missing me? 🐾

This male has found his way to our shelter and is missing his home! He is microchipped, but unfortunately this specific microchip company has gone out of business and we are not able to retrieve the owner’s information.

Owners can reclaim their pet with proof of ownership such as pictures or vet records at 3118 Cabaniss Parkway, Corpus Christi, TX! Please share this post to help find their families❤️ Stray animals are placed on a 3-day hold period to allow time for their rightful owners to reclaim them. If they are not reclaimed during that time, they move forward in our process to become available for adoption!

For updates, please give us a call at 361-225-0845 or visit gchscc.org/adopt.
