Someone let the cat out of the bag, or in this case, a box, after the poor thing had been stuck there for six days.
Galena, the cat, was recently shipped from Utah to California after she had stowed away in an Amazon box.

Her owners, Carrie and Matt Clark were packing up an Amazon return when Galena snuck into the box and they mistakenly packed her up with the return.
The Clarks searched everywhere for their beloved feline with no luck, having no idea she was on a heck of a journey.
Less than a week later, they got a surprising phone call.
Galena was discovered by an Amazon worker named Brandy, 650 miles away.
Brandy took the sweet cat under her care and had her microchip checked, which led the trail to her rightful owners.
Amazingly, Galena was in decent health, just a little dehydrated and hungry.
The large box she was being shipped in held several pairs of shoes, and a rip on the side allowed her to breathe.
The Clarks immediately flew to California to bring her home, and are thankful for their kitties' quick recovery.
They say it's important to microchip your cat and maybe double-check those boxes.
