Galeana, known for her love of boxes, vanished from her Utah home earlier this month.
After a frantic search, the family received the “most insanely amazing news” nearly a week later: Galeana was finally found safe and sound in California!
It turned out, the curious feline had snuck into one of their return packages – a large box containing steel-toed work boots.
Thankfully, the box wasn’t completely sealed, allowing Galeana to breathe.

Fortunately, an eagle-eyed Amazon worker spotted Galeana upon opening the package.
Additionally, they took her to a vet, where her microchip revealed her true owners.
“I didn’t believe it at first and thought it was a prank,“ said Carrie Clark, Galeana’s relieved owner, who then embarked on a 1,000-mile journey to reunite with her furry friend.
