Ozzie the Australian cat turns up in Armagh, 19,000 km from home

Armagh Cats Protection took in the ginger cat, only to discover he was originally microchipped in Australia. He was also tagged in a London vet clinic, as a stray, in 2004.

His owners, however, never linked their details to his record. How he got from Australia to London, and then across the Irish sea to Armagh, remains a mystery.
