After doing research, it appears that the chip under the skin only
provides identification which needs to be read by the correct scanner.
So someone has to find the pet and turn them in. There are GPS-based
and radio-wave based collars where you can do live tracking (GPS via
the internet of GSM mobile phone and radio-wave to a remote). GPS has
a longer range and is more accurate. The problem for me (or Louie) is
the weight of the units. I think the smallest GPS is 5 ounces. They
are recommended for pets over 12 lbs and he, at 6 lbs is smaller than
most cats.
