7 Hilarious Ways to Ship a Cat That Will Make You Laugh
If you do a lot of shipping as a small business owner, you know that FedEx is critical especially “when it absolutely, positively has to be there overnight.” I was surprised to learn that FedEx even ships live animals including reptiles, horses, and zoo animals. I would never have thought about that! (*** If you are considering shipping a live animal, make sure to contact the FedEx Live Animal Desk for all the acceptable terms and conditions.) Fedex is there for you even when you need to ship a cat!
What does this have to do with social media marketing? Nothing. Take a break and enjoy a bit of humor.
How to Ship, a Cat
Don’t trust your roommate to “babysit” your cat! If a vacation is in your future, you can stop that worry by making the decision to take your pet with you wherever you’re going. Learn how to ship a cat – the right way.
Step 1 – Find the Right Size Shipping Container
Box A: Extremely Urgent FedEx Express Padded Envelope. Obviously, the most comfortable way to travel.
Box B: FedEx Express Box Medium. The first cat to squeeze inside gets to travel first class!
Box C: Custom Packaging for FedEx Air Travel. Note to self: Box must match the color of cats eyes.
Box D: Custom Packaging FedEx Express. Hum, I hope this is not going to turn out bad.
Box D: Custom Packaging FedEx Express. Hum, I hope this is not going to turn out bad.
Option A: Maybe just skip the packaging and hop aboard the first FedEx truck that comes along.
Option B: Better yet, maybe just pack your cat directly into your suitcase.
Disclaimer: Shipping your cat via the methods listed above is not condoned or advised. Consult with an expert and your veterinarian to determine the safest way to transport your pet.
