Associated Press
CLAMECY, France —
A cat that apparently preferred France to West Germany walked 620 miles to its old home here, the feline’s former owner says.
Madeline Martinet said her cat, Gribouille, appeared on her doorstep in this central French city this week, nearly two years after he was reported missing from Reutlingen, a West German town near Stuttgart. Gribouille was 2 months old when Martinet gave him away in July, 1986, to her neighbor, who later moved to Reutlingen.
