Five years after a Maryland family<\/a> lost their cat, Artemis is back in their lives.<\/p>\n

Melissa and Brooke Garci did everything they could to find Artemis, who is an indoor\/outdoor cat, after she went missing in 2021, WJZ-TV<\/a> reported.<\/p>\n

Melissa Garci told the news station she canvassed the neighborhood with flyers but to no avail.<\/p>\n

Fast-forward five years to when a woman brought in a cat to the Humane Society of Harford County that she said she found in her unfinished basement.<\/p>\n

“Artemis was brought into our shelter<\/a> by a caring community member,” the Humane Society said in a post on Facebook.<\/p>\n

The nonprofit said they scan every animal brought in for a microchip as part of standard protocol and found one on the wayward feline.<\/p>\n

“We traced her chip with the manufacturer and called the owner. Her owner picked up the phone and was speechless. Artemis had been missing for 5 years!!” the Humane Society wrote, adding, “Tears were shed over this sweet reunion. We are so happy to have brought this family back together again!”<\/p>\n

Erin Long of the Humane Society told WJZ: “This woman answered, ‘Hello?’ And we said we have your cat, and she was unbelieving. And she said, ‘Are you sure? My cat has been missing for five years.\u2019”<\/p>\n

Brooke Garci told the station she felt like she couldn\u2019t even cry yet when she saw Artemis again, “because I was in disbelief, but when I saw her, I was like, ‘Omg, she looks exactly the same.\u2019”<\/p>\n

“Her instincts are strong,” Brooke added.<\/p>\n

Long said when Artemis first left her kennel she walked over to the Garcis and got on both of their laps.<\/p>\n

“It was a beautiful thing,” she said.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
