When Kathy Jensen checked Facebook on Thanksgiving Monday and saw post for a missing cat on in Lake Country, she was sure it was the same grey tabby that had been frequenting her yard.

So, like she has done many times before, Jensen stepped away from what she was doing B次元官网网址揷ooking Thanksgiving dinner B次元官网网址� and headed outside to help an animal in need. She was determined to find out if the cat in her yard was the missing kitty that she had seen on social media.

To her surprise, the Facebook poster said that the little grey kitty wasnB次元官网网址檛 their cat. On a mission to find this catB次元官网网址檚 home, Jensen turned to the Okanagan Humane Society (OHS) for help.

B次元官网网址淭he cat had scratches on its face and I didnB次元官网网址檛 want it outside, because I didnB次元官网网址檛 want cougars to get it,B次元官网网址� she said.

It turns out this cat was missing, but it wasnB次元官网网址檛 the recently lost feline, it was Chloe a grey tabby who had been lost for about a year and a half.

Thanksgiving was anything but a holiday for OHS president Romany Runnells who was working with several animals in the charityB次元官网网址檚 care over the long weekend. Runnells answered the phone and explained that if Jensen could get the cat to Spall and Harvey Veterinary Hospital in the next 30 minutes the cat could be helped.

Despite being in the middle of cooking a turkey for Thanksgiving dinner, Jensen made her way to Kelowna.

Following treatment, the vet checked the catB次元官网网址檚 tattoo and microchip which was traced back to Newton Vet Clinic in Surrey.

The information was current and that tattoo connected the vet, along with OHS, to a family living in Lake Country.

B次元官网网址淚f we hadnB次元官网网址檛 answered that call this kitty would have likely been released and no reunion would have occurred,B次元官网网址� said Runnells.

Chloe, who is nine years old, had slipped away from her home on Robinson Road in Lake Country just over a year and a half ago and was only kilometre from her home when Jensen found her.

Chloe was reunited with her family, who she recognized right away. Once safe at home the kitty reportedly ate a full meal and went right back to her usual sleeping spot.

When Jensen heard of the reunion she was astonished the cat had been missing for over a year and yet found so close to her home.

B次元官网网址淲hen I found out, she was reunited with her owners I was shocked, I was in tears,B次元官网网址� said Jensen. B次元官网网址淎 whole year, gone. I am still crying.B次元官网网址�

Thankfully Chloe the cat, had a wishbone of luck, that Monday with Jensen spotting her and OHS answering the call when help was needed.
