The likelihood of accidentally running across someone you used to live with after 15 years away is little to none. Could you have imagined that such a miracle could occur in real life? It would, and it happened, as predicted. The events of the story took place in Los Angeles only a few days ago.
When Charles adopted a 2-month-old brown tabby cat in 2005, it was the beginning of an incredible journey. Brandy was the name he gave her. After a few months of blissful union, something awful happened to the two of them. Brandy went disappeared without a trace. She walked out to the backyard one day and didn’t return for several hours.
His heart was broken by Brandy’s disappearance. Charles looked for the kitten literally everywhere he went, but he was not successful in his endeavors.
The worst scenario crossed Charles’s mind, but he held out hope that someone had adopted Brandy and was taking good care of the poor cat deep down inside.
Later on, Charles realized that he had no choice but to move on. Eventually, he adopted two younger cats and relocated to the San Fernando Valley in Los Angeles, where he is currently employed as a computer technician.
The situation appeared to be hopeless. However, after 15 years, Charles received an unexpected phone call that he had never expected to receive. The person on the other end of the phone was from the Palmdale Animal Care Center, who informed him that they had discovered an injured cat that they believed to be his and had contacted him.
The cat was discovered only about 40 miles (65 kilometers) from where he lived, and the information about the feline could be verified thanks to the microchip that had been implanted in her. Charles had relocated, but fortunately, his phone number had remained the same throughout the process.
Immediately following that, the man was on his way to the center. Brandy, his Brandy, turned out to be his cat. Their reunification was extraordinarily moving. He remembered Brandy as the same sweet, tranquil cat he had remembered her as a child, albeit she was older and thinner after all these years. At one point, the man broke down and sobbed.
While Charles was unaware of Brandy’s whereabouts during these 15 years, he surmised that someone had adopted the cat and had kept her in their home without checking her identification chip.
It’s sad that Charles is unable to care for Brandy at this time, given that the man already has two other cats in his small apartment, but fortunately, his sister, who lives nearby, is willing to assist him. Charles intends to pay frequent visits to Brandy as well.
