Stowaway kitteh makes trip from Egypt to England

Squee here

From the article:

A stowaway kitten nicknamed Sinbad has survived an "epic" 2,000-mile voyage inside an Egyptian shipping container.

The eight-month-old ginger tabby climbed into a box of luxury linens bound for the UK from Alexandria.
