For two months, a California couple was heartbroken, worrying about the whereabouts of their beloved cat after losing him in Yellowstone national park, a wilderness larger than some US states.
But as summer came to a close, so did their tragic story. Benny and Susanne Anguiano reunited with their lost feline Rayne Beau last month after an animal welfare group called to let them know their cat had been found in Roseville, California, about 800 miles (1,287km) from Yellowstone.
In June, the couple went camping in the national park, where their cat was startled by something in the wilderness. Rayne Beau ran into the trees, and they didnt see him again for 60 days. During the trip, they searched every day, laying out treats and toys in hopes hed return, but without success.
We had to leave without him, Susanne Anguiano told KSBW. That was the hardest day because I felt like I was abandoning him.

A lost cats mysterious 2-month, 900-mile journey home to California
By Olga R. Rodriguez and Manuel Valdes - Associated Press - Friday, September 20, 2024
SAN FRANCISCO A gray cat living an extraordinary life of visits to the beach and trips to the lake went on his biggest adventure alone: traveling hundreds of miles from Wyoming to California.
But how the feline named Rayne Beau - pronounced rainbow - made it home two months after getting lost in Yellowstone National Park during a summer camping trip remains a mystery.
Benny and Susanne Anguiano and their two cats arrived at Yellowstones Fishing Bridge RV Park on June 4 for the cats first trip to the forest. But soon after they arrived, Rayne Beau was startled and ran into the nearby trees.
The couple looked for him for four days, even laying out his favorite treats and toys. When they finally had to drive back to Salinas, California, on June 8, Susanne Anguiano said she was crushed but never lost hope she would find him.
We were entering the Nevada desert and all of a sudden I see a double rainbow. And I took a picture of it and I thought, thats a sign. Thats a sign for our rainbow that hes going to be okay, she said.
