AN engineer had an unexpected passenger when he found his neighbour’s cat stowed away in his van as he made a 100-mile round trip to fix broadband at an island fire station.
Tia the cat sneaked into Doug Craig’s van as he loaded up in Oban early one morning, and hid in the back for the three-hour ferry crossing to Arinagour on Coll in the Inner Hebrides.
He only spotted the cat several hours later after he had fixed a fault in the fire station’s broadband wiring, and realised the stowaway was his neighbours’ pet.
