Aaaaaand... the cat came back
It wouldn't stay away
It was sitting on the porch
The very next day...

Indestructible cat Andrea caused a sensation when she miraculously survived two attempts to put her down in a gas chamber last autumn. Now the feline's found a new home where she'll be much safer.

It also seems West Valley City, Utah, may soon close its carbon monoxide chamber in the face of opposition from volunteers at the local animal shelter, whose cause has been promoted by the cat.

Staff at the Utah animal shelter made the decision to euthanise Andrea after 30 days because no one had adopted her and there was no space to continue to keep her.

But she survived her trip into the carbon monoxide gas chamber. After the attempt to gas her she still showed signs of life, so a further attempt to put her down was made.

The astonished employee ran the gas once more before placing Andrea in a plastic bag and leaving her body in a cooler, reported the Salt Lake Tribune.

Less than an hour later the same staff member was placing the body of a dog in the freezer when he heard a ‘meow’, reported WPTV. Tearing open the bag he found her looking terrified but alive.
