The Happy Return

The happy reunion: Iggy back home with his family
On October 23rd, 2021, after an incredible community effort spanning nearly four months, Iggy was found safe and sound in a garage in Kópavogur. Though hungry and thirsty, he was otherwise in perfect health. After a quick checkup at the vet, he returned home to his overjoyed family.
