Curiosity earns cat a trip to California

Since at least the late 1500s, authors from Shakespeare to Stephen King have mentioned what happens to curious cats — and it’s never good.

But for one cat in Utah, her curiosity earned her a trip to California — the hard way, but she got there.

This April, Galena, a curious six-year-old calico house cat, chose to hide in a nice cardboard box — the very box that her owner Carrie Clark was packing up to return some steel-toed boots to an Amazon warehouse. Galena didn’t make a peep when Clark closed the flaps. And so she was shipped.

Her beloved cat suddenly missing, Clark was frantic, searching and posting flyers. Six days later, she got a text message from an Amazon worker. Galena survived her trip without food or water and was being cared for by an Amazon worker, Brandy Hunter, who had her chip scanned.

The Clark couple flew to California the next day to fetch Galena, and everyone lived happily ever after.
