A Florida man has amazingly been reunited with a cat he lost over a decade ago!
Treasure Coast Newspapers reports that Perry Martin of Fort Pierce said he had assumed his tabby, Thomas Jr., or "T2" for short, had died in traffic.
Martin moved in with a friend after Hurricane Jeanne hit in 2004. A few days after settling in, T2 escaped the home and did not return.
Martin had T2 implanted with a microchip in 2002. He never heard any news about his missing pet until a Martin County Animal Services officer called him March 9 to tell him T2 was in a shelter in Palm City.
Martin said he initially thought the call was "too crazy to believe."
The two reunited last week at the Humane Society of the Treasure Coast.
