Ozzie the mystery globetrotting cat dies before being reunited with his owners

Ozzie will now make the journey of 19,000 km one more time - going home.

Ozzie the mystery cat, who made international headlines when he turned up in Ireland despite being registered in Australia, has passed away before he could be reunited with his owners.

The ginger cat generated wide interest when he was handed in to Armagh Cats Protection last month - and a scan for his microchip revealed he should have been in Australia.
