‘Who the heck is in my U-Haul?’: Stowaway cat reunited with B.C. family after accidental adventure

A Vancouver Island family is keeping a close eye on their cat, who went on an accidental adventure and was found more than 1,000 kilometres from home hiding in the back of a U-Haul.

Risha Andrews first noticed one of her cats, a three-year-old ragdoll “chonker” named Sherman, was missing last week. She alerted her neighbours in Courtenay via group chat, asking if anyone had seen her pet – who has a tendency to take advantage of open doors to sneak out and go exploring.
