Have you ever shared geocaching with a loved one? What about sharing a loved one with the geocaching community?

Some geocaches stand out for the adrenaline that they bring, some, for the story they tell. And some very special geocaches, like our Geocache of the Week, invite you in and share a piece of their heart. Take a stroll through the memories with us as we visit 🐱 Phred’s Phree Library & TB Hotel (GC9D6YQ).

The cache page for GC9D6YQ shares the life and accomplishments of Phred, an extraordinary cat who purred his way into the hearts of cache owner animjason and family. As a memorial to this wonderful feline family member, they crafted an unforgettable geocaching experience.

The secret to this geocache is carefully guarded, though, so you’ll need to think outside of the box to get to the logbook inside!

 

Once inside, it’s clear that this is more than just a free little library and trackable hotel—it’s a whole guest home! Nestled behind the various trackables and the geocaching logbook, a miniature office setup decorates the room.

What’s that underneath the ‘phramed’ photo of Phred in the corner? Why, it’s a miniature desktop computer with the very same cache page pulled up for 🐱 Phred’s Phree Library & TB Hotel! Every detail is ‘purrfect’ for this Letterbox Hybrid!

After perusing the miniature decor and discovering any trackables that catch your eye, it’s time to leave your mark in the logbook! Since this is a Letterbox Hybrid, the cache owner has supplied a specially-made Phred stamp for you to stamp in your own notebook.

Phred has left a mark on many lives, both figuratively and literally, as players from around the world can take this souvenir of an amazingly heartwarming cache experience.

Remember to share your story and give thanks to the cache owner in your geocache log. You might even pay tribute to Phred by sharing a picture of your furry friend!
