Cat lost for 14 years. Great story. Happy ending.
Who would have thought that after 14 years, you'd find your lost cat?'
MIAMI - T2, the orange tabby, is tougher than the Terminator.
Way back in 2002, the cat was a stray and wandered into the life of now-retired Fort Pierce, Fla., K9 officer Perry Martin. He named the cat Thomas Jr. - nicknamed T2 (and that handle sure applies) - and took him to the vet for shots and the implantation of a microchip.
Two years later, T2 went missing after Hurricane Jeanne passed through Florida. Martin had moved in with a friend in Stuart in the storm's aftermath and T2 escaped - probably through an open window, since the storm had knocked out power and the September weather was sweltering.
Martin reported the cat missing to his vet. But when no one called as days dragged on, the grieving owner feared the worst: T2 must have been hit by a car on a nearby highway. Over the years, Martin moved a couple times, to Ohio and back to Fort Pierce.
So imagine Martin's surprise when he got a call nearly 14 years later from the Humane Society of the Treasure Coast on March 9.
