Here's an interesting little story from the BBC.

That's actually more common than most people realise. There have been at
least two or three similar stories in the UK press within the last year or
so. They apparently survived by licking condensation from the walls.

I'd imagine this poor cat was pretty hungry. Isis gets antsy if her dinner
is even an hour late.

Thirty five days with no food? Is that possible for a cat?

From other reports the cat survived by drinking condensation  30 days  yes
very possible  but with problems

Also it was in a cargo crate  we also have no idea what was also in the
cargo container only that the cat chewed its way into the box it could have
gotten a rat or two.  Many of times when I have received containers they had
pest in them most where dead though
