Boo, the cat in the pictures, disappeared in 2005 at 4 years old, leaving her owner Janet Adamowicz heartbroken. Despite posters in Harrogate (England), Boo remained missing.

A year later, Janet decided to give up and stop searching for Boo. She adopted 2 cute cats and everything was great. Little did she know that Boo would appear out of the blue after 13 years! One day, Janet received a call about her missing cat. She thought of her 2 cats first, but they were both at home. Then the lady on the phone said that the system listed her as the owner of a cat named Boo. Her heart trembled and her mind raced – Janet was shocked to find Boo alive and well!

She immediately went to get Boo, and the cat was in pretty good health, which was surprising. Boo was brought to Wicstun Vets by a woman who said the cat wandered nearby her house 40 miles away for a few weeks. Boo immediately recognized Janet even after all those years and it was a very emotional reunion.

“I got a call on Thursday to say I had a cat missing,” Janet said

“Boo recognised her mum straight away and within minutes the two were thoroughly enjoying plenty of face rubs, cuddles and meows”
