PHOENIX A house cat who took a three-week cross-country ride to Arizona in a storage container will soon be heading back home to Florida. Arizona Humane Society officials say the 2-year-old gray cat crawled into a locker in Pompano Beach, Florida while a man loaded it for a move to Phoenix. The container spent time in a Florida warehouse and on a semi-trailer before being delivered to a Phoenix facility. A worker heard a cat meowing inside the container Tuesday. The cat, named Meatloaf, was hungry and thirsty but unharmed. The man who was moving remembered a similar cat near his old apartment. Meatloaf's owners had put up posters around their neighborhood. Officials will give Meatloaf time to recover before flying him home. http://apnews.myway.com/article/20080221/D8UUUL1G0.html
