You Don’t Know if you’ve Mailed a Cat until you open the box and find out.
Cat Survives 8 Days In Box After Owner Accidentally Mails Her Across England
Cupcake is an incredibly lucky cat.
The Siamese survived being stuck inside a small box for eight days after her owner accidentally put her in the post.
Julie Bagott didn’t spot her pet snoozing inside the parcel as she packed it with DVDs at her home in Falmouth, in southwest England. Then she dropped the box in the mail.
After traveling for 260 miles, Cupcake arrived in Worthing, West Sussex, on the other side of the country.
Cupcake was reunited with her tearful owner on Saturday. “I feel terrible about what’s happened, you know,” Baggott told BBC South Today.
“I mean, I put everything in the box and I sealed it straightaway, so I don’t know how she managed to get in there,” she added. “It was a miracle because she was alive, she’s managed to survive that awful ordeal.”
That is hilarious. Thank gosh it didn’t ended with a dead cat, simply an absent-minded owner who will clearly be giving Cupcake more treats.
Isn’t this also an applicaiton of the Heisenberg Packing Uncertainty Principle, too?
Was the parcel delivered on foot? I could walk from Falmouth to Worthing in 8 days!
It could have been worse .
How many of Cupcake’s 9 lives remained after that?

Did I detect Imagine Dragon’s decay 6E10 times, or only 5E10? In all the postal confusion I’ve lost count myself. So do ya feel lucky, Cupcake? Well do ya?

Google Maps says that a walk would take 81 hours, so 8 days sounds about right, allowing for breaks for meals and sleeping.
