A very heartfelt and thankful message was posted on Milo's Facebook page this morning which said: "Well what can I say other than a huge THANK YOU to this amazing community who have made it their mission to help us.
"We have been so moved by the determination and care we have been shown by thousands of people. I believe that across social media platforms this has been shared 150,000 times!!!!!
"This made him "too hot to handle" and so he was dumped in a car park and found by a wonderful lady which is was what we hoped might happen.
"Thanks again - my faith in people has been so restored. With love my family to you all. Stay safe xXx Here he is happy back at home."
