All his 14-year-old daughter Keisha wanted for Christmas was a cat. So in 2014 her dad Glenn Stupar adopted a beautiful calico from a local animal rescue in Edmonton, Canada.
The family renamed her Sophie and she lived happily in the their apartment for three years, until the fluffy feline escaped from the balcony.
It was days before Christmas, and they searched and searched but never found her.
Now, 7 years later—and days before Christmas—the family, including Keisha’s fiance, were sitting around reminiscing about the cat when they received a phone call from Community Cats Edmonton.
Sophie had been found living outside a car wash just 3 miles from their home.
Car wash employees and a couple living nearby, had been feeding the cat for more than a year—and the nonprofit group had spent months attempting to capture the wily creature. Finally they succeeded.
They checked to see if the cat had a microchip—the existence of which the family was unaware—and they soon were all reunited after thinking their fur-ball was gone forever.

“She still has some of the old Sophie in her,” Stupar told CBC News. “She’s doing great.”
