SANTA MARIA, Calif. - This is Gorda. She came into the Santa Maria as a stray, said community outreach coordinator Michelle Maltun of Santa Barbara County Animal Services.
But Gorda isn’t just any stray.
She s actually from another state, and turned up here on the Central Coast.
“We scanned for a microchip like we do for every animal that comes into our shelter. And her chip traced back to a shelter in Las Vegas, Nevada, said Maltun.
Maltun with Santa Barbara County Animals Services emailed Gorda’s owner.
“And within five minutes we got an email from her saying my baby I’ve been missing her for almost a year now I have no idea how she got out there I’m in Las Vegas, said Maltun.
