Meet Hazelnut, the one that got away but was re-found the next day. I picked her up Monday evening at the Camarillo Shelter to take her to the Vet in Westlake village because she had kennel cough – as most do now a days. When I was off-loading her, she bolted right out of the kennel and was off like a greyhound. No way was I going to catch her. I looked for a few blocks around and saw no sign of her. We posted flyers in the neighborhood and lo and behold, someone had found her, just a few blocks from the Vet’s office. She is now at the Vet’s office safe and sound, thanks to a wonderful anonymous animal lover in that area. A big thank you to that person, from all of us.

On Friday the Camarillo shelter staff let us know that Chico had come down with kennel cough and could not be sent to Simi that day as planned. I agreed to stop by the shelter Saturday at 8am to transport him to a vet hospital in North Hollywood on my way to Devore. Well, things don’t always go as planned and the staff wasn’t going to release him till 9am. Too late for me, as I had the other commitment. So Chico stayed at the shelter another day until I could pull and transport him on Sunday. And that’s what I did on Sunday. Hopefully it is a minor case and he will be all better and ready for his upcoming trip to Arizona next week. We will have to wait and see.
