Kitten Survives 85 Mile Van Ride Across California
A stowaway eight month old female kitten rode in a van engine compartment for 85 miles from Marin County to Santa Cruz, California. A Santa Cruz County Animal Shelter spokesman says the cat climbed aboard seeking warmth, surviving the journey that crossed the Golden Gate Bridge and ended at a gas station where a meow was heard. Shelter officials seek the owner as the kitten wears a blue studded collar and blue bell without ID.
