When a person devotes years to raising their pet cat, it becomes nothing less than a child to them. They both feel safe and loved because they share a bond.

Humans rely heavily on their pets as companions. Imagine coming home from work, exhausted and stressed out, only to see your furry friend sprinting towards you to carry and cuddle.

The heart longs to be reunited with a pet kitty if they are ever separated; that is how beautiful a relationship with a pet kitty is. Cats frequently run away for short periods of time to explore the outside world, and they can't help themselves; it's something to do with their insatiable curiosity.

In many cases, a cherished kitty may become lost or stolen and the time spent apart from the cherished cat is excruciatingly painful for its owner. If the time is extended, the owner's world appears to be crumbling because their furry friend was no less than a child to them.

A similar incident occurred when a woman's cat, Georgia Tsatsaris, went missing and did not return for ten years. Tsatsaris didn't give up, kept in touch with the authorities, and longed for his beloved cat, Mishka, to return.

Tsatsaris' beloved cat went missing in 2010, and a decade later, she received a call from the Peninsula Vet Referral Hospital informing her that her cat had been found at a construction site. All this time, the poor cat had been wandering around Melbourne, abandoned.

Meanwhile, Tsatsaris had divorced and relocated to Kringal, which was twenty-five miles away from Chadstone. In short, Tsatsaris and her lovely pet, Mishka, went through a critical period.

Mishka was picked up by a factory worker at the Port of Melbourne, who called for medical help after noticing she was injured and sick. During her treatment, Mishka was identified by her ID chip, and the vet immediately contacted her owner, Tsatsaris.

Tsatsaris drove to see if it was Mishka who had been rescued, as she had given up hope of ever seeing her beloved cat again after so many years apart from each other. After a decade, she finally took a deep breath in relief after meeting Mishka.

Mishka was severely injured and suffering from an upper respiratory infection that had worsened over time when she was brought to the vet. She was also dehydrated, and she was on the verge of losing her life.

Mishka's situation necessitated comprehensive medical assessment and treatment, and it was difficult for Ms.Tsatsaris to cover all the bills and afford the treatment at the time because she had suffered financially during the pandemic.

She started a GoFundMe campaign to help pay for Mishka's treatment. She left a very touching message as well to convince people to donate:

"Mishka has been on the streets for a long time, and she now requires 24-hour care to fight the infection and gain weight so she can return home. She's been fighting for her life, but with each passing day, she's becoming stronger and blending in with her owner. "

Pets are very important to their owners because they provide unconditional love and companionship. Tsatsaris is overjoyed to be reunited with Mishka after all these years.

Let us hope that no pet parent ever has to go through such anguish or see their pet in such a critical condition which is being on the verge of death. Don’t forget to leave your thoughts about this post in the comments section.
