This brave cat is believed to have walked almost 2,000 miles across Australia to get back home. Jessie the cat relocated with her owners from South Australia to a new home in the Northern Territory in March last year. But soon after the family's move, Jessie went missing and is thought to have showed up at their old home over a year later. Cat on a mission: Jessie the cat (pictured) is thought to have walked 2,000 miles through the Australian desert 'She was here for a couple of weeks and we thought she'd settled in, but soon afterwards Jessie disappeared', her owner Sheree Gale, 31, told Northern Territory News. But Sheree is convinced her determined tabby left Berry Springs, just outside Darwin, and walked the distance back to her old home in Ungarra, on the Eyre Peninsula. 'I can't explain it. She hates getting into cars, so I think she has walked,' said Mrs Gale. More than a year later, the new residents of the Gale's old home in Ungarra, South Australia, found a strange cat hanging around. Gone walkabout: Jessie the cat is thought to have walked across Australia, from Darwin to Ungarra 'I took a photo and sent it to Sheree, and she said it was definitely Jessie,' said Jenn Humby, who, for now, is looking after Jessie. If the cat is Jessie, she would have either endured Australia's harsh desert or travelled via the coastal route, which would have taken even longer. When Mrs Gale and her husband, Andre, flew up to Berry Springs, along with Jessie, they had left their other two cats behind with the owners of their old home. The Gales believe the cats are all reunited now and are happy for Jessie to stay at their old home. That's one long walkabout! Cat walks 2,000 miles across Australia to get home after owners relocate
