Cat swept away by Hurricane Helene's waters returns home 8 days later

In a heartwarming turn of events, a cat swept away during Hurricane Helene’s floods in North Carolina has miraculously found his way back home. The resilient feline, named Ricardo Blanco, disappeared after being washed away by the rising floodwaters.

… Ricardo was swept away on a camper that floated in the floodwaters, leaving the family helpless and mourning his loss. However, eight days later, in a truly cat-like fashion, Ricardo reappeared and needed only medical treatment for minor infections.
