Un chat qui a de l'endurance

Cat survives slow boat from China

A cat trapped in a cargo crate without food or water seems to have survived a 35-day sea voyage from China to the US.

[...]

A local vet suggested cats coped well with shortages of food and water.

"Usually we say that animals can only survive a few weeks without food and only a few days without water," Raleigh veterinarian Michelle Misavage told the Associated Press.

"The theory is that cats have such good kidneys their bodies adjust to the lack of water and somehow they received small amounts of moisture from condensation."
