Missing orange tabby in West Asheville (Wilshire Park / Providence Rd) — $1,000 reward

Hi Asheville community, I’m reaching out for help finding my cat, Buddy, who has been missing since January 8 around 8:25 AM from Wilshire Park near Providence Rd in West Asheville. Buddy is an orange tabby, very curious, friendly, and absolutely not feral. He’s a young cat with a home and a family who misses him deeply. What’s been overwhelming (in a good way) is how many people — neighbors and complete strangers — are still keeping an eye out for him. I’ve learned just how caring this community is, and I’m incredibly grateful. There’s a chance someone may have picked him up thinking he was a stray. If that’s the case, please know he is loved and very much wanted back home. I’ll add photos/videos in the comments so you can see his personality and markings. $1,000 reward — no questions asked 📍 Last seen: Wilshire Park / Providence Rd 📞 Call or text: 828-316-1777 If you’ve seen him, have cameras in the area, or can help spread the word, it truly means everything. Thank you for taking the time to read this and for looking out for him. — Zhenya
