Cat Found 3 Years After Japanese Tsunami
By Amy Sinatra Ayres | vetstreet.com
Kazuko and Takeo Yamagishi were convinced their black cat, Suika, died after disappearing from their home in Japan on March 11, 2011 - the day of the devastating earthquake and tsunami.
The couple had Suika for 12 years before the disaster, and spent three months searching for him before giving up hope.
Last month, Suika was spotted in a town nine miles away, and taken to Ofunato Health Centre. Workers there found his owners' contact information on his faded tag, and the Yamagishis had an emotional reunion with their pet. "Where have you been," said Mrs. Yamagishi, 64. "It's just like a dream." It was not clear where Suika spent the last three years, but the new bell on his collar indicated someone had likely been taking care of him. - Read it at the U.K.'s Telegraph
