Cat Missing in Yellowstone Travels 800 Miles to Reunite With California Owners

The heart-warming story of a missing cat reuniting with its owners has been winning hearts on social media. Benny and Susanne Anguiano, a couple from California went on a camping trip to Yellowstone National Park, with their two pet cats, Rayne Beau and Starr in June. While camping at the Fishing Bridge R.V. Park, Rayne Beau, who is a male Siamese cat of 2 years of age, went missing into the Yellowstone National Park woods.

Despite an extensive search of 5 days, the owners were unable to find the feline. However, nearly 2 months after the incident, Rayne Beau miraculously traveled 800 miles from Yellowstone to reunite with his owners.

Missing cat returns home after 60 days & 800-mile journey

A 2-year-old male Siamese cat named Rayne Beau, who went missing while on a camping trip at Fishing Bridge R.V. Park, in Yellowstone National Park, has been reunited with his California owners, Susanne and Benny Anguiano.

The couple suddenly lost sight of the cat after he dashed into the deep woods. They waited for his return and went on to look for him in the forest area for 5 days near their camping ground. However, they could not find him and lost hope. Rayne Beau’s sister cat, Starr, also began to meow through the trailer’s screen door as she could not see her brother.

After 5 days, the California couple decided to return home to Salinas with heavy hearts. As reported by The New York Times, Mrs. Anguiano expressed, “Leaving him (Rayne Beau) was unthinkable,”. She continued, “I felt like I was abandoning him.”

Almost two months after the feline went missing, something happened that was nothing short of a miracle. Rayne Beau was discovered wandering on Roseville streets in California. It was just 3 hours away from Anguianos’ place. As first reported by KSBW, the news station, it was also over 800 miles away from Yellowstone National Park.

A local Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals worker informed Susanne and Benny Anguiano that Rayne Beau had been identified by rescuers with the help of his microchip. Thus, soon the couple were reunited with their beloved cat. He had lost a lot of body weight and was exhausted after walking such long miles, per the owners. They further stated that Rayne Beau has been doing well since he returned home in early August.
