The small, borrowed cat carrier sat on a chest freezer in the Alaska Seaplanes office in Haines. Spot the kitten was the only passenger waiting when Cassidy Timm and Blake Ward arrived to pick her up.
“She’s so excited. Hi, Spot!” Timm bent over the carrier where Spot rolled over.
“Her siblings are going to be so excited to see her and her mom. Her mom has been so sad lately. It’s been awful. She just runs around crying all the time,” Timm said.
It’s been over a week since Spot clawed out of the sunroof of their vehicle and got lost somewhere on the car deck of the ferry Matanuska.
