Right after they have discovered Frankie was missing, the concerned couple had spent two weeks putting up posters, posting appeals on social media, and walking the city streets in the early hours calling his name.
Then, on one of these morning walks, they have spotted Frankie in the window of a Cancer Research charity shop. In an interview with the BBC, Mrs. Clark said: "He was sitting on top of a missing poster we had put through the shop's letterbox."
Turns out, Frankie squeezed through a small gap on the roof of the building and fell through a ceiling tile into the shop.
Even though the couple was eager to release Frankie as soon as possible, they had to wait outside the shop for several hours for someone from Cancer Research with a key to free him.
"He was rubbing his head against the glass and I was posting cat treats through the letterbox," Mrs. Clarke said.
Despite being very thin as he has lost a quarter of his weight, Frankie was absolutely fine.
"Luckily, cats are very tough", Mrs. Clark summarized their two weeks ordeal.
