Family cat possibly taken from CANNON BEACH Marcel was pretty new to Cannon Beach. After being gone for 4 days, A K9 search and rescue team conducted a search, determining that Marcel went on a lengthy walk about town, ultimately ending up at Pacific Avenue. Marcel’s scent disappears there, indicating he was taken from Pacific Street near Hallmark Resort. We would love to believe that someone well-meaning feared for his safety, and took him with them. We are looking for answers, and would love to know that he is safe and happy. Mostly, we would like him to be home with us. Marcel is a 14 year old, gray and white male. Last seen wearing a red collar. Please contact (458) 205-4951 or mailto:jenleeashton@yahoo.com with any info. REWARD 4)#+%43 s s WWW.COLUMBIATHEATRE.COM Z
