Grand Rapids cat café reunited with stolen kitten

After two days, Happy Cat Café has found a kitten they believe was stolen from their store. Someone recognized Bonnie and brought her back home.

GRAND RAPIDS, Mich. — The Happy Cat Café in Grand Rapids says they have been reunited with a kitten stolen from their store.

Bonnie is a two-month-old girl with gray and white fur and is small enough to fit in the palm of a hand, so staff believed it would've been easy for someone to slip her into a purse or backpack. She went missing from the cat lounge in the afternoon on Thursday.

Café staff says they searched the building and the nearby area for her and couldn't find her. 

Employees said there is a small chance she is a "fantastic hider and it still somewhere unknown to us," but they ultimately "believe someone has taken our dear Bonnie," they wrote on Facebook Friday.

After a two-day search, Bonnie was returned home. Staff says a mother and son recognized her with someone on the street and quickly returned her to the Café. 

"So so so so grateful our sweet kitten is safe and sound! Thank you everyone," Happy Cat employees wrote.
