AN Edenfield woman and her two children have been reunited with their missing cat, thanks to the Bury Times.

Five-month-old Thomas disappeared from Lindsey Ashworth's home in Highfield Road around Christmas time. The mother-of-two appealed through the Bury Times for help in tracing the missing cat.

Lindsey said: "Apparently, Thomas was found by someone in Stubbins who kept him for one night before giving him to a couple. Their neighbour read the story in the Bury Times and the couple returned the cat. We are delighted to have him back home with us."
