Taylor's Tale

I had two cats a brother and sister - Tink and Taylor and all was happy in our household. But then in June 2004, two weeks after I had a baby Taylor the (neutered) male cat left home - I think decided he didn't like being second best!

I put up posters, telephoned vets, cat sanctuaries, you name it I tried it, but alas no news of my cat was ever heard.

Days turned into weeks and weeks into months. In September I adopted another cat to take his place as her owner didn't want her anymore, and we all settled down, although I always looked for Taylor when I was out walking.

However, one night in February 2005 my husband went into the kitchen and shouted for me to 'come here now' and there he is! My cat Taylor after practically eight months had come home!!

He is now acting as if he’s never been away and is dominating the household once again. I wish I knew where he had been! He now has a nice collar with his name and telephone number on it and hopefully if he wanders again I am more likely to get a call! I am still shocked and stunned, and apart from a couple of minor things he is absolutely fine.

So to anyone out there who has lost a cat - miracles do sometimes happen!!
