LOS ANGELES: A curious cat that sneaked into an open field was shipped throughout the United States to an Amazon warehouse after its unknowing house owners sealed it inside.
Carrie Clark’s pet, Galena, vanished from her Utah home on April 10, sparking a livid search that concerned plastering “missing” posters across the neighborhood.
But every week later, a vet lots of of miles (kilometers) away in Los Angeles acquired in contact to say the cat had been found in a field — alongside a number of pairs of shoes — by a warehouse employee at an Amazon heart.
“I ran to inform my husband that Galena was discovered and we broke down upon realizing that she should have jumped into an outsized field that we shipped out the earlier Wednesday,“ Clark informed KSL TV in Salt Lake City.
“The field was a ‘try before you buy,‘ and filled with steel-toed work boots.”
Clark and her husband jetted to Los Angeles, where they discovered an Amazon employee named Brandy had found Galena — a little hungry and thirsty after six days in a cardboard box, but otherwise unharmed.
Clark said Brandy had taken the cat to the vet who had been able to scan Galena’s microchip and discover out the place she lived.
