Marmalade is HOME!!!

Sophie:
After 6 months, Marmalade is finally home!!!

We drove to a new area about 5 miles from our house and parked the car. We walked a good mile up a nice path and then we stopped for a rest. We decided to turn around and walk back to the car. All of a sudden we heard a 'meow meow meow'. I wondered what a cat was doing up in the middle of no where. Then, the cat sprang out of the bushes and it was Marmalade!

I gave him a stroke, then he lay on his back and I tickled his tummy. We then had to walk a mile back to the car. I let Marmalade chase my stick, Mummy carried him some of the way and he followed us all the way to the car. We then put him in the car and drove home.

Once home, he ate a whole tin of food and then introduced himself to Sir Percy. Tiger knew who he was already and they rubbed noses.

He was ravenous, but not thin. He was dirty but not overly so. He is covered in fleas though. We will take him to the vet tomorrow to be checked.

I am just so happy to see him. It has been 6 months since he went missing and now we've found him! I hope he sleeps on my bed tonight.
