This Young Cat Got Lost in the Storm; Can You Help Bring Him Home?

He's safe, he just needs to find his family.

There have been many consequences of yesterday's disaster. Here is just one.

This cute, young cat showed up on the back deck of a home on Rex in Elmhurst, just north of the Prairie Path. He arrived at around 5:30 p.m. Thursday, and as of this morning, Friday, he is being kept warm and fed by the homeowner, who also has cats of her own.

"He's smallish, looks to be only about a year old, all black and has a 'Safe Cat' collar with a bell, but no identification," the resident said.

Thursday must have been a rough day for this beauty. We all know how cats feel about water.

Is this your cat? Do you know who he belongs to? If you have any information, please call (630) 359-4769.
