It's a Christmas miracle - but it's also something of a yuletide mystery.

A cat that went missing in Florida has turned up 2,000 miles away in Colorado.

The one-year-old orange and white male tabby cat called Waylon disappeared in August.

He had been adopted from an animal shelter in Naples, Florida, by Daniel Johns, the Huffington Post reports.

But Waylon, it appears, had other plans. Within an hour of arriving at his new home Waylon escaped through a dryer vent.

Last Wednesday, Waylon was found wandering in Littleton, Colorado.

How - and when - he got to Colorado is a complete mystery.

One amazing journey: How the cat travelled 2,000 miles and when it happened currently remains a mystery

The good samaritan who found Waylon took him to the Foothills Animal Shelter in Golden.

They scanned a microchip embedded under the cat's fur, linking the cat to Mr Johns.

Mr Johns told the Naples News: 'It's a Christmas miracle. He's a really cool, sweet cat. He walks on a leash and knows his own name.'

He said he plans to travel to Colorado and pick up Waylon next week.
