Illegal Cat

A stowaway who made it past Customs agents and into the United States on the metal frame of a fertilizer truck has won over locals.

The illegal is a cat ( now named Canada) who hopped aboard a semi-trailer hauling fertilizer from Esterhazy, Sask., to Eldridge, North Dakota, and rode the entire way clinging to the truck's metal frame.

"I don‘t want to see her deported now that they‘ve tightened the immigration laws," Society spokeswoman Deb Archambeau joked. "She‘s sweet and friendly and deserves a good home. She‘s the sweetest illegal immigrant we‘ve ever met."
