Robertson, a long-haul semitrailer driver, was reunited with his cat during a delivery in Shoals, Ind., on Feb. 25, 2017. Percy survived a trip of 400 miles by clinging to the undercarriage of his semi. Robertson thought he had lost his traveling companion at a rest stop in Ohio and was astonished when the cat wandered out from under the truck in Indiana. (Paul Robertson via AP) (AP)
