Nugget is home!

Nugget and Tallulah were made strictly outside cats over the summer at camp, mostly due to our lack of space up there and a new family member. They had lots of land to roam and would come up in the evenings to visit and eat. About a month before we left camp we stopped seeing Nugget around. We went out looking and calling for him in the woods around camp several times, but never saw him again. We were hopeful that he had just stumbled along one of the homes in the golfing communities near by. Anyway, camp ended and we had to head back to High Point without our second cat. However, a few weeks ago, Shane got a call from a vet near camp who claimed to have Nugget in hand. We had him chipped when we got him, and I guess those things work! Shane went to pick him up a few days later. He was pretty skinny and beat up looking, but I suppose after 4 months out in the wild, you would be too. Tallulah was semi-welcoming of his homecoming, and Nugget is happy to be home again, where there is always food.


Last weekend was Shane's last weekend at Cheerio this year. They closed up camp for the winter and he will mostly just be in the High Point office until spring. This is good news for me, as I will have helping hands for more of my weekends!
