13-year-old cat who disappeared 9 years ago gets reunited with his owner just in time for Christmas after being catnapped and kept in a hoarder home: 'Look at my little Christmas miracle'

There is something about Christmas that brings the believer out in us. Something out there has to be working overtime at the end of the year, trying to reach all the deadlines. That is the only thing we can think of that can explain all the cat related Christmas miracles that happen at the end of the years. Freezing cats get rescued straight out of the snow, people skip holiday dinners because of a kitten they heard crying outside, lost cats get returned to owners who have already given up hope.

It's not the first time we have seen this happen, but this might be one of the most intense reunion stories. Nine year - it has been nine whole years since this person had lost their cat. A microchipped spayed cat. After nine years, we would have assumed the worst. But no, in a real Christmas miracle, this cat had been released from its prison - a hoarder's house to which he was catnapped nine years ago - and found its way back to where he belongs.

Nine years. Nine years is such a long time to be without your cat. We cannot imagine what this little guy must have gone through in that house, with people who didn't care about him enough to so much as take him to the vet. He's back where he belongs now.

We don't know what's worse, the cat surviving on its own outside for so many years or this. Either way, we cannot be happier about him being back with the owner that he is supposed to have. A Christmas miracle indeed.
