A rare first occurred at an animal rescue in the US state of Minnesota when a stray cat managed to find herself thousands of miles from home … on a completely different continent.
Companion Animal Care & Control said in a June 5 Facebook post that the tiny survivor was found inside a shipping container that travelled from China to Minnesota. She spent about three weeks in the container and was “severely dehydrated and dangerously thin” when she was discovered.
The adventurer was named Stowaway. She is now being cared for in a shelter before being placed for adoption.
“Thankfully, our team was called, and with a little patience (and a humane trap), we were able to safely catch her,” the rescue said. “This cat is nothing short of a miracle.”
