Overview
- Workers unloading a shipping container in Oakdale discovered the emaciated cat hiding beneath a pallet on June 5 after its trans-Pacific journey.
- Officials say she likely survived by drinking condensation and possibly feeding on rodents during the three-week crossing.
- Companion Animal Care & Control captured her safely using a humane trap after finding her severely dehydrated and underweight.
- She was first transferred to Northwoods Humane Society and on June 11 moved to Pet Haven, Inc. for specialized care.
- Pet Haven’s Wallflower Program is nursing her back to health, and staff anticipate she will be ready for adoption soon.
