EDNEYVILLE, N.C. --

A lucky feline is warming up at an animal shelter in Edneyville after surviving a trip from Canada in the back of a refrigerated truck.

The Times-News of Hendersonville reports that the cat was discovered earlier this month when workers were unloading cargo from the truck at a warehouse in Mills River.

But the chilly trip didn't end there. The cat escaped into the warehouse, where the temperature is kept at 38 degrees, before employees caught him after about a week.

The cat is now at the Blue Ridge Humane Society Animal Adoption and Rescue Center, where he's being quarantined. Workers plan to have him neutered and vaccinated and then put up for adoption.

Since his adventure ended, he's been given the name Joe Cool.

Joe Cool certainly is one Lucky Cat to have survived his ordeal.
We are praying taht Mr Cool finds his Furr Ever Home soon.:love::love:

Neutered?


He probably froze his batonga wongas off during the trip!:D

Do they know where in Canada he got onto the truck? Could he possibly have escaped from his home and someone back there is missing him and grieving him deeply?

I'm SO glad he is safe and being cared for now. Well done, Joe Cool and all who helped!
