A Utah couple is thankful after they reunited with their cat they accidentally shipped an Amazon facility in Riverside.
An Amazon worker in Riverside found the cat and took her under her care until the family could be reunited.A Utah couple is thanking their lucky stars after they were reunited with their pet cat they accidentally shipped to an Amazon facility in Riverside, California, while trying to make a return.
Galena the cat is back home in the Beehive State after the wayward feline’s tendency to snuggle in boxes inadvertently took her on a trip to Southern California. According to the cat’s owners, Matt and Carrie Stevens Clark, the pair shipped a box of shoes to Amazon for a return. Little did they know, however, Galena made the mistake of making herself comfortable in that very same box.Desperate to find their beloved pet, the couple set out fliers in their neighborhood bringing attention to their cat’s disappearance. They also called friends, family members and neighbors inquiring about Galena’s whereabouts.
With no leads on their cat’s location, the couple became disheartened; that is -- until they received a shocking phone call that Carrie described as “the most amazing, insane news in the entire world.” Galena’s microchip was detected 650 miles away in Riverside. An Amazon worker found the cat and took her under her care until the family could be reunited.“I just couldn’t even believe that she was in California,” she said. “I thought it was a prank. It’s still hard to wrap my brain around.”“We had no idea, so Matt took her to the package drop-off without knowing that our dear cat was inside,” Carrie said.
