A missing cat turned up in the most impossible-seeming of places: on an offshore oil rig in the North Sea. How the cat — whose microchip revealed him to be named Dexter and who had been missing for five years — ended up off the coast of Scotland is only partly a mystery. He was found in a shipping container that had come from Scotland. How he ended up in the container is unclear, but Dexter was reunited with his owner after the oil rig workers contacted Scottish animal rescue officials, fed him chicken from the canteen, and had him flown to dry land Friday. Dexter’s owner described the cat as a longtime “wanderer” who “went away a few years ago and we never heard anything about him since.”
