Cat Forum / Cat Anecdotes / May 2007Cat Survives Trip From China to North Carolina in Cargo Crate
Finally something from China worth having here! Story and photo of the pretty tabby at: http://www.foxnews.com/story/0,2933,271777,00.html Fair use excerpt: HENDERSONVILLE, N.C. China the cat got her name after being delivered in a crate holding motorcycle gear that a North Carolina man had ordered to be shipped from Shanghai. Eric Congdon opened the cargo freight that left port in China on April 3 and found the furry stowaway, which had chewed through one of the boxes. After at least 35 days on a ship, the cat was weak but still alive.

Purrs for her. PatM Oh I do hope she finds a good home. She's very sweet looking.

This isn't the first time we've heard stories of cats stowing away in crates shipping from places such as China. I suppose it would be too much to ask that they inspect the crates before they seal them up and load them on the ship. What am I saying? Of course it would be too much to ask!

Chinese motorbikes are crap, too. ============== j-c ====== @ ====== purr . demon . co . uk ============== Jack Campin: 11 Third St, Newtongrange EH22 4PU, Scotland | tel 0131 660 4760 <http://www.purr.demon.co.uk/jack/> for CD-ROMs and free | fax 0870 0554 975 stuff: Scottish music, food intolerance, & Mac logic fonts | mob 07800 739 557 > Finally something from China worth having here! > Story and photo of the pretty tabby at: [quoted text clipped - 9 lines] > found the furry stowaway, which had chewed through one of the boxes.
