Hello 24Petwatch,

I recently had my house broken into, and among other things, my digital camera was stolen. A couple of weeks later I received a call from the police saying that they had recovered my camera from a pawn shop. They were able to track it back to me because there was a photo of my cat Barney, which displayed the yellow 24petwatch tag. The police were able to blow up the picture of the tag, identify some of the digits in the id numbers, and called 24Petwatch and were able to match it back to me.

Thank you 24Petwatch for assisting the police in their detective work. The perpetrator has been identified because of this detective work.

I think Barney is the real hero.
