When their cat, Bear, was hit by a car, a UK-based couple was inconsolable.
Sadly, the cat passed away, but they had no idea that they would soon get a letter from an unknown person revealing that their animal had also been someone else’s companion.
Bear and his brother Teddy were inseparable, and the two frequently set off on excursions together.
Teddy once returned home bearing a message that had been fastened to his collar shortly after Bear had passed away.
“Dear Owner; I’m your neighbour, living in 4,” the note stated. Since the two cats are accustomed to visiting my room every day, I am also close friends with your cats. However, a larger one among them has been missing for two weeks. Is he all right? I’m so worried about him.”
A Taiwanese exchange student who lived next door to them actually wrote the note.
Being so far away from home made her feel a little lonely, but Bear and his brother would make her day.
One of Bear’s owners, Scott Ewels, said: “We sent a letter back to address 4 announcing the death of our other cat. Additionally, we gave our email address.”
He received a lengthy email the following day. At that point, the couple learned that their cat’s companion was a lonely Taiwanese exchange student.
She informed him that she would prepare for her university presentations.
She had no other practise partners, so Scott would sit on her bed and listen.
She even included some photos she had snapped of my babies, which touched my heart. It was incredibly nice.
