Ashes the cat and Matthew the human

Ashes used to travel with his human who is a truck driver until the day he went missing at a truck stop. That happened last July in Ohio where a kind woman named Kimberley T. had taken him to an animal welfare organisation in Newport, NY. Since Ashes was fitted with a microchip, the organisation was able to figure out the cat's identity and locate the owner, Matthew B. Hence the emotional reunion you see above.
Our family had gone through a similar experience when our cat, Basya, had gone missing. She just disappeared - and then came home again, in good health though quite skinny, a few weeks later.

We had asked where she was but all she said in response was 'meow!' So the exact timeline of her adventures remains a mystery to this day. Regardless of that, we were very happy to have her back. And I am certainly happy to Matthew B. Hopefully Ashes will be more careful going forward and will stay in the truck at truck stops.
