A missing Superstorm Sandy cat finds its way home after 6 months.

Many heartbreaking stories emerged from the impact of Superstorm Sandy but some have happy endings.

A family that lived through the horror of the storm has recently been reunited with a pet. Carol Baumann along with her mother and 8-year-old cat named Porsche were evacuated by boat from Chadwick Island during the storm in November.

The family had decided to stay with relatives in a town about 8 miles away after they lost power and running water. After several days of temporarily living in a new place, Porsche, unfamiliar with his surroundings took off and couldn’t be found.

For the past 6 months, Baumann and her family have chased and hunted down leads and sightings hoping to find their beloved kitty, but eventually they returned home on April 29th, fearing Porsche passed away. Amazingly, two days after their arrival, they heard a noise and looked out the window to see Porsche, alive and well.

No one is sure how he found his way home, but the owners are ecstatic to have him back.
