A Woman Was Flooded with Calls About a Nonexistent Cat

A Woman Was Flooded with Calls About a Nonexistent Cat . . . Due to a T-Shirt\

 A woman named Natasha has been getting DOZENS of calls from people saying that they’ve found her missing cat, named “Torbo.”  There’s just one problem:  She’s never heard of a cat named Torbo.

She lives in British Columbia, Canada . . . and the calls have been coming for around a YEAR.  The calls about Torbo have mostly been coming from the U.S., and she has no connections there.

She DOES have a cat . . . named Mauser . . . but Mauser is safely enjoying the air-conditioning at her house, and wasn’t seen wandering around Albuquerque.

And Natasha just now figured out what was happening.

Her partner finally got a caller to explain how they got the number . . . and that person said that the number was on a T-SHIRT that they bought.  The shirt has a missing cat poster, with “Torbo,” and Natasha’s number.

The company that made the shirt said they’ve pulled it . . . and a rep said, “The use of a real number within the art created was not intentional.”

The woman says she plans to keep her number.  She said she’d like a “real apology” from the company . . . and added, “I feel like I deserve a T-shirt after this.”
