It might have seemed like a cozy spot to take a nap or a good hiding place for a game of hide-and-seek. But, as it turned out, the box became a transport unit, instead, one that took Cody from Dallas, Texas, to a chiropractic clinic in Woodstock, Illinois. Though two-year-olds are generally a whimsical group, you might have thought that a two-year-old might also have been slightly more cautious around shipping boxes, especially if that two-year-old was a cat!

The good news is that Cody’s unplanned trip to Woodstock took only 48 hours, and fortunately he was shipped UPS ground delivery and not by air. And, since the 10-pound cat was accessorized with a collar bearing his name and a phone number, he returned promptly to his owner, Marie Webster. “He’s a little skinny, but we’ll fatten him up again in no time.”
