This cat is indeed lucky. The poor little feline must have been so hungry,
tired and scared. I am glad she survived and hopefully will get adopted into
a good and loving home.

i sincerely hope that this cat leads a better life now...it's previous
owners were not all that concerning. and am i to believe that these
parrot cages were empty or occupied? my apologies for my
dim-wittedness but i have never heard such a story.

It sounds like it was a company cat and it got into one of the crates.  
It doesn't seem as though there's a LOT of blame to place on the
people.  At least they considered it a pet rather than an entree.  ;)  
I guess they will now have a policy of a final check of crates before
sealing.

The manifest would have said parrots not cages if they were occupied
so I think we can safely conclude it was a cage only shipment. The
container would't have live birds on a slow boat for the same reason
the cat didn't do too well.

The fact both cats went missing at the same time makes my suspicious
side think that some employee *arranged* the disappearance.
