INDIAN RIVER COUNTY — Rachel Panay thought her cat looked pretty healthy, considering the cat had spent more than two weeks in the woods.

"She's not too, too skinny," said Panay, who drove 15 hours from Washington, D.C., to pick up Dolce after he was found Tuesday by Humane Society of Vero Beach and Indian River County volunteers.

But then, Panay possibly should have known the cat was all right. After all, Dolce reportedly had told a Seattle animal communicator telepathically that people were leaving food for it.

Panay contacted the communicator, Annette Betcher, to get some help in finding her lost cat.

Panay was on her way from Miami on Nov. 22 to her new home in Washington, when she stopped at a McDonald's parking lot near Sebastian for a short break. Dolce bolted from the car and refused to come back when Panay called.

After several unsuccessful attempts by the Humane Society to trap the cat, Panay turned to Betcher in Seattle for help. Betcher said she telepathically communicated with Dolce to find out where it was and told the cat to go into the box trap.

The communicator drew on a map three areas where she felt Dolce was hiding. Humane Society workers put out traps in those exact places, using Dolce's favorite food and a piece of Panay's sweatshirt as bait.

Within two hours, Dolce was found Tuesday in one of the newly placed traps.

"It was such a relief to get your phone call," Panay told Ilka Daniel, field investigator for the humane society, while stroking a calm and purring Dolce. Daniel continued to check the traps daily to see if the cat had returned.

After it was found, Dolce had a complete examination by the veterinarian, including being wormed and treated for fleas and dehydration. No food was found in its intestines, so workers estimate the cat had not eaten in a long time. The cat ate four cans of cat food Thursday morning, Daniel told Panay.

Panay won't be charged for the humane society's services, said executive director Joan Carlson. The humane society has a foster pet program which helps people such as Panay in crisis and emergency situations.

Panay, a singer, said she is writing a song about her experience called "Love is a Leap of Faith."

Before leaving the humane society on Thursday, Dolce got a new red collar with a bell and a microchip implanted in her — just in case she goes for a walk in the wild again.

"I'm just happy to have her back," Panay said.

She said she was thankful to the Humane Society and the community for putting up posters about her cat and for continuing to search for it. Panay said she didn't think she would have found the cat if it had been lost anywhere else along the interstate.

Panay drove 15 hours, with a five-hour break to sleep, from Washington, D.C., to pick up her rescued feline, and started her drive back north only after a short stop to thank the Humane Society staff for their assistance in finding Dolce and caring for her.
