Originally posted by Pianoman1He/she managed to jump into the trailer of a long haul transport that didn't have a return load (Halifax, NS to Vancouver, BC) as it was being unloaded. It fell asleep. When the doors where again opened it found itself in Halifax. Some animals will instinctively head "home". Four years later it showed up there and got in through the animal door. The rest , as they say, is history.
Where had he/she come from? What terrible sequence of events lead up to him/ her having to rest on the mat?

The point is, the cat did not HAVE to sit on the mat. He chose to, because his DNA is hot-wired to sit on a mat (flying or otherwise), particularly if it is in front of a fire. The terrible sequence of events that lead him to that mat is immaterial: cats sit on mats.
