Overview
- Luigi was located Sunday under a trailer at the Tsawwassen terminal after workers reported sightings and food left out had been eaten.
- BC Ferries commercial services driver Jeff Meier photographed the cat near the trucking yard, prompting Halo’s Pet Rescue to deploy with tracking dog Halo.
- Owner Neelya Herbert arrived from Vernon, called to Luigi, and he emerged from hiding for a safe reunion, and she reported he was healthy with no injuries.
- The cat slipped out of a slightly open vehicle window on Aug. 9 during a Duke Point–Tsawwassen sailing, remaining missing for about 15 days.
- Search efforts used bait stations, cameras and timed ferry checks limited to off-service periods under Transport Canada rules, with BC Ferries publicly thanking crews and volunteers.
