Ashes the cat disappeared in 2015. The owners searched for her in the vicinity for several weeks, but to no avail. The cat was miraculously found after 6 years.
During this time, she has traveled more than 1400 miles. Ashes lived with her owners in Maine. A woman named Denise Cilley adopted the cat in 2014 when she was a kitten. Ashes ran away from home in 2015. When, more than 6 years later, Cilley received a call from a Florida veterinarian, she was surprised. The man said he found her cat. Cilley didn’t understand what they were talking about: she didn’t lose any cats in Florida. It wasn’t until the doctor described the cat’s striped coat that Cilley realized it was Ashes, her long-lost cat. The microchip helped find the cat.
From it, the veterinarian learned that the cat was adopted from a shelter and that she had previously lived in Maine. Bringing the animals from Florida to Maine proved to be a daunting task. To do this, Cilley created a joint fundraiser – it was necessary to pay a considerable bill from the clinic and bring a cat. The woman didn’t have that kind of money. At first, Cilley even thought it would be easier to find a new home for the cat in Florida. But then she realized that she had to return her sweetheart.
