    Whenever there's a terrible storm, there are plenty of sad stories. Many people lost their houses, their cars and their pets. But sometimes these stories have happy endings too.

    A family in New Jersey, the US, has a cat named Vivien. She is very smart. She can even draw with her wet paws on the floor. They all love her very much. When hurricane(飓风)Sandy hit America in October, they moved to a safer place 13 kilometers away from home. Sadly Vivien went missing.

    The whole family was worried about her. They uploaded(上传)posters on the Internet to look for her. All the nine family members searched wherever they thought she could stay, but they didn't find her. The family thought Vivien was gone forever.

    But six months later, Vivien showed up at their house, according to Yahoo News. They considered her return as a wonder. No one can be sure where Vivien was for all that time.

    Many animals are good at finding their way home. People usually say that dogs and cats find their way home using their sense of smell.

    But that doesn't explain how Vivien found her way back. Hurricane Sandy blew away the normal smells of home.

    "I wish she could talk." said her owner.
