Missing magnus finds 13th is his lucky day

Friday the 13th was an unlucky day for the Paulins family when their much-loved pet cat disappeared.

But fortune turned on its head more than two years later when the family received a call to say it has been found safe and well —also on a Friday the 13th.

Five-year-old Magnus has now been reunited with the owners after being found more than 25 miles from their Staffordshire home.

Magnus vanished from his home in Park Lane, Lapley, on March 13, 2009. His owner Karl Paulins, aged 48, received a call on Friday — May 13.

The caller said a cat had been handed on to a vet in Oldbury and the owners traced because his collar contained a microchip with their details.
