+--- Thread: Cat found in a package sent from China to Canada (/showthread.php?tid=7202)
Cat found in a package sent from China to Canada - Catherine - 05-03-2023
When Canada Border Services Agency was examining packages at the Vancouver International Mail Center one of the packages had a hole in the side. When they looked in the whole, they saw eyes. When they checked in the package they found a cat.
Did the cat come from China? They don't know. They are treating her as if she was from China. She has been named Precious Cargo and is in a foster home.
The foster home plans to adopt her.

Who knows where the cat is from or how she ended up in a box, in a Vancouver mail center. The good thing is that she was found and looked after and now is going to have a good home.

If it had a hole in the package must have been done on purpose,nothing surprises me any more.

Why would someone mail a cat? They can be shipped legally and safely.

In contrast, the reaction of Canadian authorities and SPCA are wonderful!

I am impressed with how quickly they looked after the cat. She is here now so they are going to make her feel welcome.
I love the name they gave her.
