On June 2, a house cat named Fridge snuck out of her owners’ tent at a campground near Colorado’s Great Sand Dunes National Park and vanished into the desert.

The three-year-old cat ended up surviving 39 days alone in the backcountry, enduring high temperatures, and lack of food and water, and the presence of predators. Fridge’s survival  astonished her owners and raised questions about how an indoor cat managed to stay alive for nearly six weeks in Colorado’s backcountry

“There’s no way that this tiny little cat survived this long with no food, no water,” her owner, Na-Kee Bullen, told Outside. “We had kind of given up hope at that point.”
