Missing Cat Reunited with Owner Five Years After Being 'Cat Napped'

A vet and a Facebook message led to the reunion after Bodhi was found 20 miles from where he vanished, officials said.

  • Last week, Derbyshire resident Danielle Arme, 37, reunited with her cat Bodhi after he was found 20 miles away, ending a five-year separation.
  • The disappearance occurred in 2021 alongside his brother Braxon, with residents in Chellaston suspecting someone was responsible, though police never found proof of the rumored "cat napped" pets.
  • Viccie Mahon, a resident of Sudbury, discovered the cat living under her carport and located Arme by searching Facebook, uncovering an old missing poster from years ago.
  • "It's crazy, I shouted his name when we met and he came trotting on over, it was like out of a film," Arme said, describing the emotional reunion.
  • To prevent another disappearance, Arme now keeps Bodhi indoors; she moved house twice since the cat vanished and failed to update his microchip address after relocating.
