Santa Rosa cat, missing 13 years, is back home
Santa Rosa -- More than 13 years after he went missing from his Santa Rosa home, George the cat is back.

"I was blown away," Frank Walburg said of the unexpected return of his missing feline. "Such a big chunk of time has passed."

George was reunited with Walburg and his wife, Melinda Merman, both dedicated cat companions, last Wednesday after Sonoma County Animal Care and Control officers rescued him from a mobile home park - just 3 miles from their home - at the request of the manager.
