This cat went missing after getting away from a holiday cat shelter where he and other animals were housed.
The search for the cat lasted several months. His owner advertised needed pets in the local newspaper, posted orientation papers on the noticeboards, and drove around the neighborhood several times.
She couldn’t believe the pet had passed and hoped that someone had taken him in off the street and was taking good care of him.
The woman’s intuition did not fail her. The cat ended up at the home of a sweet, lonely elderly lady who cared for him.
Volunteers examined the cat’s chip and discovered that he was registered to a different address.
So, after an eight-year wait, the cat was eventually returned to his owner, who had never given up hope that her pet was still real.
Based on his appearance and health, the cat had a happy life.
‘We’d heard stories of the ‘lost’ being miraculously returned to their owners, but we didn’t expect it to happen to us after all these years.’
‘Miracles do happen!’ exclaims the woman.
