Thirteen Ten-Inch Blocks

 

I’ve always been sucker for lost and found stories, especially those involving pets. I currently care for a seven-year-old Scottie and a thirteen-year-old tabby. I spend lots of time and energy trying to prevent them from sneaking out, but stuff still happens. A month ago today, a Siamese/calico named Galena disappeared from her Lehi home. Her owner, Carrie Clark, searched the neighborhood. She put up flyers and posted on lost pet pages. A week later, Galena turned up in an Amazon warehouse in California. Carrie’s husband had ordered several steel-toed boots. He’d kept one and shipped the rest back. Somehow, Galena had tucked herself into one of the boxes he’d returned. Galena’s a very lucky cat: she’d been “mailed” when the weather was neither too hot nor too cold. The box she was in had a tear, so she could breathe. And she was actually microchipped (few cats are) so she could be reunited with her owners.
