As the saying goes, cats get nine lives and Abby, the 19-year-old stray from Kaleden can truly attest to that.
The senior cat was brought into the South Okanagan SPCA shelter in Penticton on Jan. 24, looking pretty dishevelled and not too happy. The staff at the SPCA posted a picture of her in hopes someone knew where she belonged.
Then on Jan. 30, there was amazing mews! Thanks to her tattoo, and after several homes over the last 16 years, she was able to be reunited with her original owner.
