Employees at Love Inc. in Burlington are looking for someone who donated a brown couch last week – and is missing the black-and-white cat that hitched a ride in it.

The cat was found in the couch Oct. 15 when employees brought the overnight donation into the furniture store.

“It was super heavy, so we thought it was a pullout, but it’s not,” said employee Daniel Levandowski.

According to furniture store manager Tami House, the cat seems affectionate and well-socialized, indicating that someone is missing their pet. The cat appears to be a female.

For now, the feline is being kept at the Love Inc. Furniture Store office. If anyone believes they know whom the cat belongs to, Love Inc. is asking that they call the furniture store at (262) 763-2743.

  1. So had this discovery not been made by the employees there at Love Inc and bought by someone, this couch would have been the cat’s meow> (a euphemism for a great deal.)

    Given this, I bet its buyer would have found this addition to their home just, “puuuuuuuuuuuuuurrrrrfect!”

    In all seriousness, I hope this feline is reunited with its owner soon.

  2. “…….to claim the cat.”

    That’s great alliteration, Jen, and the readers like this, so be sure to use it often in the stories you write.

    This was sort of my forte when I wrote hundreds of news stories (if not thousands before the colossal collision) and why I believe people enjoyed reading my stories when they saw my byline in this bygone career of mine.

    Now I’ll use those skills to spoon-feed reporters quotes (as they’re sort of slothful these days) and write and interview people in corporate communications (public relations), which is God’s next calling for me as he gave me a second chance at life on 9/17/11. He liked my writing and used divine intervention to ensure I still keep using this God-given talent he gave me.

    In other words, I’m doing just fine, all SLN readers, so don’t fret about me, as I’ll be just fine.

    Even I’m astonished by this and can only think of only one quote from a movie I saw eons ago that I remember to this day, along with a myriad of memories, that sort of epitomizes my rebirth in life: In, “Mad Max” when the police chief tries to convince Max Rockatansky to stay on the MFP, the police department that upholds law and order in the post-thermonuclear world, Mad Max sees this special police interceptor that’s nitrouse-injected and says, “how’d you get all this together?” in astonishment.

    That’s what I’ll be asking God someday, based on what a train wreck I was when a gargantuan pickup truck plowed into me in Sheboygan County, Elkhart Lake to be exact.

    Yet despite this, I’m still high-functioning and full of ideas.

  3. Wow, glad owners came and claimed!!
