NY Lives for Williow
She's not a native New Yorker, but she apparently wants to be one - Willow the cat goes missing in Colorado, turns up in Manhattan five years later. This very independent cat was even the talk of the town, so even the Mayor had to get into the act.
This cat ran away on what seems to have been a truly and incredible American travel tour and a journey eastbound: Go east young cat... This way cool cat turned up a staggering 1,800 miles away from home.
