Missing Cat Lived in Pastry Factory for 3 Years

When pets get lost and are found weeks, months, or even sometimes years later, they are typically a little worse for wear.

Not so for Woosie, a cat in Great Britain that ran away from home three years ago. Instead of joining a circus, he went to live at a pastry factory, which made him one fat cat.

“He’s a heavy cat now — he’s quite large. We think that he may have been eating all the pasties and sandwiches up there,” Helen Johns, Woosie’s human mom, told the U.K.’s Daily Mail.

Woosie’s journey began in Gover in 2011 when, as they always did, the Johns let out their beloved cat for a romp in the garden. Unfortunately, Woosie never returned.

It wasn’t long after that Woosie would show up at the at the Ginsters pastry factory nearly 30 miles away!

How he got there is anyone’s guess, but it’s been theorized that he might have hitched a ride on a delivery truck or in another vehicle going to the area.

That’s why they are half-human. They would not tolerate being full human.

Yes, there seems to be some confusion between pasty and pastry. A pasty is a meat pie, a Butte food, or something an exotic dancer wears(maybe in Butte)
I think there may be confusion between gobsmacked and Godsmacked, unless that’s what they say in England.
