22. She ran out as I was dumping the rubbish, so first line of defense is to make sure she is locked away

In a bedroom before the porch door is opened. So I put a jar of treats in the back bedroom to lure the cats there while I have the door open.
I'm hoping to get an appt with the vet Thursday/Friday to check for any parasites in her stool. A microchip implantation will be discussed. Do airtags work with android phones? I'll find out

EDITED--Airtags are for Apple, Android can use TileTags, so I will explore that.
