This is WONDERFUL news!!! I'm glad the airport crew took Jack to a vet and he's in great shape. What a reunion that's going to be!!

Maerlyn, thank you and thank you again for bringing Jack's story to us so we could spread the word! I'm sure he has some purrs, headbumpies, and kitty kisses for you. I have to let Danni know

I caught the end of that on TV earlier today. So wonderful to see such GOOD news about a cat seemingly lost and gone forever.

Welcome HOME, Jack!

I AM SO HAPPY JACK WAS FOUND!!! If I had been Jack's owner, I'd be in an institution by now, or in jail I hope all goes well with the reunion.

What an amazing story! There was a cat lost at Winnipeg airport years ago and I don't think he ever was found.

There'll be a happy reunion for sure!

The first thing I've been doing each morning is checking Jack's page; when I read this morning that he'd been found, I confess - I cried tears of relief. From what I read, he'll have to be in the hospital for a few days, as he developed fatty liver disease from lack of food. He's being treated for that and is expected to recover. One article says that Karen and Jack will be flying to CA together - in the cabin. AA really ought to pick up the vet bills *and* fly them home, no charge, First Class! They probably won't do either of those things, but as long as Jack is reunited with Karen and his friend Barry (and another cat whom Karen adopted to keep Barry company), that's the most important thing.

Thanks to all who prayed for his safe return; a few more prayers for his recovery would not go amiss at this point. I'm so anxious to see photos of Jack in Karen's arms!

they had better let Jack fly in the cabin this time!
