A Countryside Humane Society agent picked up the large, black cat after it was reported as a stray in Mount Pleasant.
A scan revealed a micro chip that said the cat was named Sebastian and belonged to an Illinois woman.
Countryside rescue coordinator Maggie Senzig says the owner couldn't believe it when the humane society called with the news that her cat had been found. The woman had lost Sebastian when he was a 7-month-old kitten. She picked him up Wednesday afternoon at the shelter.
