A Guelph, Ont.-area real estate broker says she rented a home to a couple believed to have brought the tabby from California to Toronto then to the nearby town of Morriston.

How the brown tabby, reported missing in the Golden State, wound up in the Guelph area four years later is still a mystery. One unlikely to ever be solved.

It's anyone's guess how BooBoo the cat travelled more than 3,000 kilometres from California to Canada, but its American owner says she can't wait to be reunited with her brown tabby, who went missing four years ago.
