H-…how. Just…how? When you pick up a box with a cat inside, that shit is way heavier than you’re prepared for. And it moves. Even if you had the quietest cat in the world, you can hear their claws on the cardboard.

…no way this could’ve been a mistake. I simply don’t believe it.

I believe it. I've shipped packages much heavier than cats, and known cats much quieter than some packaging. Poor thing might have been too scared to move a muscle, too.

The article says the box was already 30lbs, so I'm not surprised the extra weight went unnoticed
