A California couple has reunited with their beloved house cat after losing him in Yellowstone National Park, over 1000 miles from home.
Benny and Susanne said they have gone on many camping trips with their cats before. However, this trip to Yellowstone ended with one of their cats, named Rayne Beau, at the SPCA
Rayne Beau ran off into the Yellowstone trees. The couple, worried for his safety, spent every day of their trip trying to find him.
Sixty days later, their hopes came true when they received a message from Pet Watch with Rayne Beau's microchip identification and location.
A woman in the area found him alone in the street, realized he was someone's pet, and turned him in.
The couple also wants to encourage other pet owners to take precautions, such as microchips or a global tracker, to protect their animals.
"Definitely microchip your cat or your pet and register the microchip online," said Susanne. "We would have never gotten them back had that not happened."
With Rayne Beau back home, reunited with his siblings, and safe, they hope to take their cats back on trips again, but only when everyone is ready for it.
