After seeing a little black tuxedo cat in an apartment parking lot for many months…hungry, thirsty, cold and battered by tenants and their dogs, Lisa Garcia decided it was high time to bring this baby in. She called FixNation to get the kitty in for a spay/neuter appointment and to get doctored up.

Lisa dropped the cat off at FixNation on her appointment day, and by late morning, the FixNation staff called Lisa informing her that the cat was already microchipped!

FixNation tried to contacting the owner but to no avail. So at the end of the day, Lisa picked her up and took her home to foster. Three more days passed when low and behold, her original owner had got the message and returned the call.

Turns out the kitty’s name is “Lula” and she belonged to a teenage girl. Lula had gotten out accidentally and had been lost for over one year! The little girl had been absolutely heartbroken. Lisa happily took her back to her home in Granada Hills to reunite the family. Lula had been lost in Woodland Hills and she was found in Canoga Park, about three miles from home.
