I kept on forgetting to ask my nephew if they had ever spotted one of their cats that escaped from their house in December.

Your talking about the most snowfall our area had seen for the month of December, bitter cold and wind in January. Plus they live in the county and farm so the chance of a cat in an unfamiliar area (only 3 months in current house) and the local wildlife-the chance for an indoor cat to survive is slim.

But good news-she popped up sitting on the windowsill.

Much skinnier (she was a bit overweight!) and very happy to be home.

No one has any idea where she was-very few homes-no one would take a cat in their house as they would presume its was a barn cat.

Simply amazing.

What an amazing story.
So glad she turned up safe. Have they taken her to the vet? Does she appear to be healthy?

I didn't get all the details (it was their wedding this weekend). The vet is at the farm several days/week so I'm sure she had her checked out. Healthy and very clingy for now it seems.

Wow, that's great news!!
I'll bet your nephew was worried sick! It scares me thinking about any indoor animal out in the bitter cold!

What a miracle - she must have a very special kitty-guardian angel

I am happy for you all - a time for celebration for your family - not only a WEDDING, but One Who Was Lost Has Come Home
