Galena, a cat known for her shy and playful nature, suddenly finds herself on a journey that takes her 650 miles away from her home in Utah, all because of her curiosity about boxes. Here’s the scoop.
Galena’s disappearance
Two weeks ago, Galena disappeared. Her owners, Carrie and Matt Clark, were confused and worried. “We don’t know what happened,” Carrie said. They are constantly looking for their beloved pets. “We posted a lot of flyers. We have reached out to friends and family to help us search,” Matt explained, hoping for any sign of Galena.
A week after Galena went missing, the Clark family received a surprising phone call: Galena’s microchip had been discovered near Riverside, California. “I can’t even believe she’s in California. I thought it was a joke,” Carrie expressed, overwhelmed by this news.
How Galena ended up in California
The mystery of how Galena got so far was soon discovered. The cat snuck into the Amazon box at home without its owner noticing. The box used to return a pair of shoes contained Galena when Matt accidentally dropped it. “We do not know,” he admitted, stunned by the realization.
An Amazon employee named Brandi found Galena at the California facility. “She was trapped in an Amazon package,” the Clarks explained. Brandi cared for Galena, who had gone six days without food or water. “And we are so grateful for Brandi and all she has done for our kitten,” they gratefully acknowledged.
The reunion with Galena was magical for the Clarks. “It was for the best because I knew that under other circumstances, she would not have been found,” they shared, relieved and happy to get their cat back.
