Lost cat makes 900-mile journey back home to California from Yellowstone
A husband and wife in California who thought their cat was gone for good got the shock of a lifetime last month when he showed up more than 900 miles away from where he was lost.
Benny and Susanne Anguiano and their two cats, arrived at Yellowstone National Park on June 4. Although the couple had always traveled with their pets, something spooked their Siamese cat, Rayne Beau, and he ran into the forest.
The couple looked for him for four days, said the Associated Press, and tried to tempt him to return with his favorite treats and toys.
MISSING DOG IN VIRGINIA CAPTURED AFTER 6 MONTHS ON THE RUN: ‘ALMOST LOST HOPE’
Rayne Beau was nowhere to be found.
Eventually, on June 8, the Anguianos began their return trip to their home in Salinas, California, south of San Francisco.

Susanne told the AP she was “crushed,” but remained hopeful that, against all odds, her cat would be found safe.
“We were entering the Nevada desert and all of a sudden I see a double rainbow. And I took a picture of it and I thought, that’s a sign. That’s a sign for our rainbow that he’s going to be OK,” she said.
In August, the Anguianos received word that Rayne Beau had been found – skinny, and with paws that were roughed up – but otherwise OK.
Rayne Beau was spotted in Roseville, California, almost 900 miles from where he ran off in Yellowstone and about 200 miles away from Salinas, said the Associated Press.

A woman noticed the Siamese on the streets, and provided him with food and water before she successfully trapped him on August 3.
She then brought him to the local Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals, where his microchip was scanned.
NEW STUDY SHOWS THE EFFECT OWNING PETS HAS ON OWNERS’ BRAINS
Rayne Beau lost six pounds during his two-month journey back to California, said the Associated Press.
The Anguianos believe that Rayne Beau, somehow, was able to make the journey back to California by himself.
“His paws were really beat up.”
“I believe truly that he made that trek mostly on his own. His paws were really beat up. Lost 40% of his body weight, had really low protein levels because of inadequate nutrition. So he was not cared for,” Susanne Anguiano told the Associated Press.
The couple reached out to the media hoping to see if anyone had perhaps spotted their cat on his journey.
For now, the Anguianos have decided to put a pause on traveling with their cats.

“It was a very ugly feeling after we lost him,” Benny Anguiano told the AP.
“We’ll have to practice camping at home and camp in the driveway to get him used to it.”
And they have taken extra steps to ensure their cats are safe and sound.

While the cats were already microchipped, they have since been fitted with AirTags – and a GPS global tracker for Rayne Beau, said the couple.

Cardinals’ Burch shares what he learned as a rookie in 2025
Arizona Cardinals second-year player Jordan Burch says his defensive line teammates have formed a bond heading into the 2026 NFL season.
Last year in early July, Cardinals edge rusher Jordan Burch was a rookie third-round draft pick out of Oregon who was looking forward to his first NFL training camp and eventual first season.
That rookie year is behind him now, and Burch has identified what he needs to improve on heading into his second season. He said he now knows what to expect and look for, and after talking with outside linebackers coach Matt Feeney, Burch built an offseason plan with which he was comfortable.
“I don’t think anything was like a surprise,” Burch said on Thursday, July 9, at the Cardinals’ Tempe headquarters. “I kind of know what to prep for, so this offseason I can look at my old plays, and then I can call my coach and tell him, from last year to this year, what does he want to see on the field.”
Burch seeks to improve his pass rush. He played in all 17 games last season and had five solo tackles with a sack, and also broke up three passes.
Much of his position was dropping into pass coverage, so Burch looks to recognize pass catchers’ routes better in 2026. He gets help from veteran Josh Sweat, who is there to answer questions about the position they share.
“Every week, every game going against somebody good,” Burch said about takeaways from last season. “The talent of the quarterbacks. We’re playing the Rams, how quickly they get the ball out.”
Burch looks forward to building a stronger bond with his teammates, having invited some of them for dinner or to watch TV. He said he was happy with his progress as a player throughout last season.
The Cardinals open training camp Wednesday, July 22, at State Farm Stadium. It’s a week earlier than most teams because Arizona plays the Carolina Panthers in the Aug. 6 Hall of Fame Game in Canton, Ohio.
Cardinals legend Larry Fitzgerald will be among those inducted into the Pro Football Hall of Fame Aug. 8.
Huntington Beach police are vowing to prevent a potential “takeover” event being promoted across social media that they believe could get out of control.
Police said they became aware of the event from a flyer online advertising an “end of summer beach bash” in the city.
“Dear ‘Beach Bash’ organizers…” police said in an Instagram post Thursday. “Thanks for the flyer. We’ve seen it too.”
They continued, “We have no intention of allowing that to happen here.”
No further details were provided about when the event was planned to take place or the exact location.
Police and the city of Huntington Beach said they’re working to prevent the event following similar events in Southern California that resulted in violence, vandalism and other criminal activity.
One chaotic event that was held in Newport Beach on the Fourth of July ended with more than 400 people being arrested, according to police. Some partygoers were seen fist fighting, while others allegedly vandalized property and local businesses, including a Pavilions grocery store.
Newport Beach police said social media posts drew a large influx of people to Newport Pier in a short amount of time, and the event got out of control.
Huntington Beach PD warned that anyone who organizes, promotes or participates in criminal activity associated with a takeover event may be arrested or prosecuted. Charges may include incitement to riot, vandalism, theft, assault, reckless driving, unlawful assembly, conspiracy or other applicable offenses.
They also warned that juveniles would not be exempt from punishment, and parents or guardians may also be liable for damages caused by their child’s actions.
The HBPD Special Investigations Bureau has already identified individuals believed to be involved in organizing and promoting the event, according to police.
If you have information regarding this event, you are urged to contact Huntington PD’s Special Investigations Bureau at 714-536-5991.
