Kittens Stowaway in FedEx Shipment
A Vermont warehouse worker found more than he expected in a recent FedEx shipment. Five kittens had made the trip from South Carolina in a box containing a mower that a customer was returning.
A local paper, The Addison Independent reports:
The kittens’ story actually starts two or three weeks before, when they were born after a cat in Honea must have identified the box, which already contained the trimmer-mower, as a good place to raise her domestic shorthair kittens.
A couple weeks later, the CHP customer got around to sealing the package and calling FedEx to have them pick it up. The truck showed up at about 5 p.m. on Monday, and the cats began their odyssey.
After their 43 hour adventure, the kittens arrived hungry but otherwise healthy and were soon feeding with a surrogate mother.
