The cat, Bobby, was found on Sept. 25 in Fallon, Nevada, according to the Northern Nevada SPCA. In a video, Angela Rudolph, marketing manager at the Northern Nevada SPCA, said after scanning Bobby’s microchip, animal control officers in Fallon contacted the family connected to the microchip.
The family was thrilled. Kyle Preston, 73, who owns the cat, never gave up hope that he would find Bobby one day.
“He has been looking for Bobby for the past year and a half and has been putting out Bobby’s special kitty food to this day every day, hoping that Bobby would just kind of find his way back,” Rudolph said in the video.
Bobby was put on a flight on Friday and taken home thanks to a woman named Barbara who is part of a lost and found pets Facebook group in Bozeman, Montana. The woman happened to hear Bobby’s story, picked him up from Reno-Tahoe International Airport and took him home to Montana.
Rudolph said the SPCA staff thought the woman was a family-friend of the Prestons but as it turns out she is just an “incredible” and a “pet-loving” woman.
Local news station KRTV was at the airport in Montana for the reunion between Bobby and Kyle Preston who was overwhelmed with emotions at seeing his beloved cat. According to KRTV, his family arranged for the reunion to be a surprise and Kyle Preston had no idea he would be seeing his cat.
