A couple from Utah shipped some returns to an Amazon center in California. They are also owners of a cat. But for some reason, they did not get the memo that cats like boxes, and now we have this story for you.

Some may find this story funny, I find it deeply disturbing, but at least we can all be satisfied that the cat is safe and sound….

The story is self-explanatory. The couple’s cat suddenly vanished on the same day they returned five work boots to Amazon. Subsequently, they put up posters, posted on social media, and looked high and low. But they were baffled as to what happened to their presumably indoor cat.

According to KTLA:

On April 17, a week after Galena’s disappearance, Clark received a call from more than 600 miles away from home. Turns out the seven days of searching didn’t work because the family cat took an impromptu trip to the Golden State.

“I got a call that changed everything,” Clark posted to Facebook. “Her microchip was scanned, I was immediately notified via text and a vet called me to say they had Galena and she was in CALIFORNIA!!”

Clark said that without her and her family’s knowledge, Galena hopped inside a package full of products they were returning to Amazon. After the box was sealed and shipped off, the cat went on a six-day adventure without food or water before ending up in a return center in Riverside.

The cat lost a couple of pounds and was dehydrated, but other than that she will be okay.

Okay, but how do you not know the cat is in the box? How incredibly stupid does someone have to be that they think nothing of a box meowing, shaking, and being 10 pounds heavier than it should be? This is not something I will ever be able to comprehend.

I often allow my cats to play around in Amazon boxes for a couple of hours before throwing out the packaging and sometimes I even joke I am sending them off in the box. But I would never have “accidentally” shipped my feline friends over 600 miles away from their homes. And quite frankly, I don’t even think they deserve that cat. Nonetheless, at least she is safe (for now) and did not suffer substantial harm. However, the physiological trauma of being in a small, dark box for that long probably cost her two out of nine lives.
