Using Pixfra Mile 2 M625 in search for missing pets
The author is from: Magnar from cat-organization Katteeiere i Holmestrand Background: My wife and I have a cat-organization in Norway called Katteeiere i Holmestrand (Catowners in Holmestrand). We search for missing and homeless cats (and sometimes dogs), and trap homeless, hurt, sick and missing cats. We also check them for identification chips, we pick up dead cats, inform people about laws and regulations related to cats, and generally do everything about cats in our area.
