A senior kitty is headed for home in Ontario after more than five years on the missing list for Find Lost and Escaped Cats (FLEC) in Greater Victoria.

The Colwood cat reported missing in late February was found not long later near Royal Bay bluff. But it wasn91裸聊视频檛 actually the beginning of this cat91裸聊视频檚 tale, FLEC president Jill Oakley said.

The Highlands resident runs FLEC and FLED (the original non-profit society launched in 2013 to locate dogs), but doesn91裸聊视频檛 serve as administrator of the cat side of the business, so didn91裸聊视频檛 have a name for the 13-year-old fluffy feline.

However, he was first reported missing about five years ago by his vet tech human. While she was forced to move away from Greater Victoria, the owner didn91裸聊视频檛 ever give up hope, Oakley said.

It turned out, the family that had the cat didn91裸聊视频檛 realize he had a microchip. During the cat91裸聊视频檚 latest escapade, the person who found him took him to a vet where the chip provided information about his original human 91裸聊视频� now living in St. Catherines, Ont.

91裸聊视频淚 think you could have knocked the owner over with a feather when they were contacted,91裸聊视频� Oakley said, adding the woman is thrilled and working out details to get her pet home.
