Cat travels 1500 miles


The most celebrated traveling cat is probably Sugar, who belonged to the Woods family in Anderson, California. In 1951 the Woodses moved to a farm in Gage, Oklahoma, but had to leave Sugar behind because the cat refused to travel in the family car. A neighbor adopted the cat, but after three weeks Sugar vanished. Thirteen months later Sugar announced his arrival in Gage by leaping onto Mrs. Woods’s shoulder. At first the thought the cat was simply a look-alike, but the cream-colored Persian had a peculiar deformity of the hipbone, just as Sugar had. His 1,500-mile journey had not been in vain.
