Sawyer is Home
Thanks to miracles, social media, and Dad Tom and I blanketing our area with flyers and posters, Sawyer is home after 24 days and 12 hours.
He showed up .9 miles from home at the exact house where we adopted our first cat Skooter in the mid-80s. Thinner and with matted fur, he was still wearing his collar and tags.
He is currently in quarantine until he can be seen by the vet tomorrow. Needless to say, he is grounded for life. And a locater tag is being added to his collar in case he gets any more wild ideas about going on another neighborhood walkabout.
I will fill you all in on the details tomorrow for Thankful Thursday.
Until then, thank you for all the purrs, prayers, support, POTP, posting and sharing. It is what sustained us during this long ordeal.
Big hugs, Dad Tom and Mom Janet
We haven’t been on in a couple of days and we always look for updates on Sawyer. Then with your most recent post, you have a Sawyer selfie and we were like oh goodness he is back home. This is so incredible and we are so happy for you and your whole family.
Maybe he meant to just go for a short stroll to get some fresh air and to catch a pesky mousie, but then got spooked farther out by some sort of beastie. The white kitty that Mom had before me went missing and was found way at the top of tree where he had wedged himself in to not fall off. Mom thinks he was spooked by a cow or a coyote, ’cause he was out of his typical territory.
Thank heAVENS, You had everybody worried sick, Sawyer!! You should be grounded for life. Noelle has been so upset at what the ding dong happened to you she couldn’t do much. Now, stay home! Remember if you don’t know how to get back home…..then don’t leave good thing like home. Anyway we sure are glad you’re safe!

OMC! We are overjoyed with this wonderful news!!! Just goes to show you the power of the prayer paws!
I was in tears when I read the news!!! I’m so, so happy for you.
The BEST NEWS!!! This shows that miracles DO happen…and the fact that you never gave up.
Yay yay yay! We are so happy and grateful that Sawyer is home! We have been purring, woofing, and praying every day and checking your blog multiple times a day to see if there was news. We checked it now and are so happy to see this post! Continued purrs, prayers, and well wishes to Sawyer!
We are now having wild fires very close to where we live so we will not be online for a while. But we have been checking in to keep tabs on the Sawyer watch!
This is the best news ever! We are so very happy and relieved that Sawyer has been found. We send you all hugs and purrs.
Marv and Mom
Yesh!!! Sawyer is safe at home! It’s the best news miracle. So happy for Sawyer and the Blue Ohana that you’re all together. Purrs and love……..
Last weekend you had a post about your Angel Mau. No surprise that Angel Skooter may have guided him.
OH MY! I am sooooo happy for you and for Sawyer. Hugs and more hugs! Yippee!
That is awesome news! I am so, so very happy he was found – what a relief! I agree, grounding to his room, he had people all over the world worried about him, silly boy.
Wonderful news!! ♥
OOOH Thank the stars. I am beyond grateful. Oh thank you universe, thank you world.
SAT HERE IN TEARS.
Absolutely the best news EVER. I burst into tears too because I’ve been hoping and praying and thinking non-stop about “The Wanderer” and to know he’s safely at home now is almost overwhelming. I have to think once he settles down he will be GLAD to be home and happy for some “consistency” back in his life with food and love. Miracles absolutely DO happen – this is the best one EVER.
Love, Pam and Teddy
Yes, miracles do happen. This is the best news ever! And I think Sawyer needs to be grounded not only for the rest of this life, but for all 9 lives. Has he divulged what he was doing? I am so happy for you and Sawyer.
I can’t tell you how happy I am that Sawyer is home!!!
Yeah!!!!!!! Such wonderful wonderful news!! So glad Sawyer is home and safe!
I can’t stop weeping. You never gave up or lost faith and now, YOUR BOY IS HOME! It is the best news of all, the happiest day ever. Much love and thunderous purrs from all of us, including Spitty from beyond the Bridge XOXOXO
Mummy just burst into tears. We didn’t understand why. She said: “Sawyer is safe. He’s come home.”
We said: “But that’s wonderful! So why are you crying?”
Mummy said she’s crying because She is happy.”
Humans are furry strange!!!
But We are overjoyed that all Our Purrayers were answered and that Sawyer is home at last. We send him headbutts and pawpats and kitty kisses and can’t wait to hear about his Extraordinary Adventures.
Thank you a million times, Great Cat in the Sky, for bringing Sawyer home. Yes, Miracles DO happen!
We are so happy Sawer has returned home safe and sound. Big hugs
Luvs ya’
Raena and Zebby
Thank God. That is wonderful news. It is truly a miracle. XO
I still have a hard time wrapping my head around the fact that he was gone for so long, needed meds, and was still located after 24 days! Purrayers work! The most effective locator we’ve found is the Marco Polo.
Tears if joy. 😭. So excited that Sawyer has returned home. That is the happiest ending I have heard in a long time. Hugs purrs and kisses for everyone who helped bring Sawyer home.

I’ve got goosebumps!
HURRAY, SAWYER IS HOME!!!!!!!
Making a joyful noise ! Can’t wait to learn the details, but the main thing is he is home and alive !
I had the feeling he would be close, and I’m so glad he’s okay. Never give up!
This is the best news ever. Teary eyed as so happy for you. I hope they find everything is alright when he sees the vet.
That is indeed a wonderful miracle and we’re so, so happy!!!
Grounded for life? Bwahahahahahahaha. Okay, I’m doing the happy dance. This is the best news ever.
Let the party begin.
Have a fabulous day. Lovies and scritches to Sawyer and scritches all around. It’s indeed a happy day. ♥
When he first took off I was a little panicked (memories of ours taking off). When he didn’t return right away I was so afraid for him, particularly with his medical condition. Poor baby. My eyes are filled with tears of joy and relief. Yes, miracles do happen! <3
Hurray! The is the best news I’ve had all year! Welcome back home Sawyer!
Sending you all big hugs and purrs.
Vicky & Inky
