Francine The Cat Captivates The Internet
Francine the cat is the star of this story, and there are a few reasons she’s special. First of all, she has a unique place she calls home and second…she went on an unexpected adventure.
Francine the cat has been living at a Lowe’s in Richmond, Virginia since 2017, and customers love her. But she wandered on a truck and ended up in North Carolina. Elise and Chas started an Instagram account called “Where’s Francine” to help find her and it captivated the Internet quickly! The account gained more than 30,000 followers and 9 million views in a short amount of time. Local animal care groups soon reached out to help. They even brought in drones to scan the distribution center, which is 1.4 million square feet.
Francine was found roaming around on a security camera after 10 days!
An employee named Wayne spotted her and he said, “She looked at us, and gave this big meow like, ‘What took you so long?’”
