Web's Most Popular Cat Still Feline Lonely
Members of a feline social networking site are banding together to help find the owners of a lost cat, sparking an international “cat-hunt”, to reunite Betsy (as she has been named) with her family.
London, United Kingdom, July 02, 2008 --(PR.com)-- Last week United Cats – a social networking site for cat owners – profiled Betsy as “Cat of the week” and within 5 days she had over 2,400 friends from as far away as Chile, South Africa and Honduras.
“We posted a video of Betsy on our website and local lost and found boards. I didn’t dream there’d be this much interest, “ said Zeta Frasca of Kitten to Cat, London’s only cat only veterinary clinic where Betsy is being given the attention and love she deserves after being brought in by a concerned client.
“One theory is that Betsy’s family moved from the area and she found her way back so they could be anywhere now. We know from her microchip records that they lived in Kew, Richmond about 12 years ago but the trail goes cold as her owners didn’t keep their details up to date.”
Kitten to Cat’s boarding facilities are equipped with web cams for owners to check up on their cats over Skype video but Betsy is not too fussed with the technology.
“She prefers to curl up on her shelf and sleep or play with her catnip mouse. However, with thousands of people circulating videos and pictures of her I am hopeful it will jog someone’s memory” said Miss Frasca.
Meanwhile Betsy continues to attract new friends at a rate of hundreds per day and local residents pop in to Kitten to Cat to say hello to her regularly.
