College Students Use Yik Yak to Find Lost Cat

Having a pet go missing is something no one ever wants to deal with. (Also, that's where microchips come in handy.) But sometimes even a microchip won't help and you need to lean on the people in your community.

After the initial post, more students spread the word about the missing cat, and before they knew it, cat and owner were reunited. Social media can be such a powerful thing! Read through to see some of the Yik Yak messages that were passed around campus to find the cat, and find even more heartwarming stories here.
