Lonely truck driver adopts stray cat and now he’s his co-pilot on the road.

They are having a great time traveling together!
Paul Robertson is an honorable trucker. He obviously enjoys what he does because he has been doing it for a long time.

Yet when he’s following on a long journey, loneliness frequently gets in the way.

It’s not easy, let’s be honest, to stay awake while traveling alone at night, but Paul won’t be stopped, especially if he has a deadline to meet.

He had a cat named Howie that traveled with him on his back and forth journeys.

They traveled together for numerous hours and spent years as best friends. Howie tragically passed away in 2017.

Anybody who has ever owned a pet can attest to the difficulty of moving on after losing a pet. Nobody, not even Paul, is free from this painful experience. When he lost his cherished cat, he was extremely sad.

That didn’t, however, stop him from yearning for yet another animal friend. Soon after, he went to a shelter for animals to look for another kitty. He met a ginger cat there by the name of Percy.

The cat had a lost tooth, a ripped right ear, and scars.

Paul wanted Percy despite all of his imperfections.

He immediately realized that the two of them would be the ideal match.

In the end, Percy had a difficult life. Before being saved, he was a homeless man. The former stray cat kept a good outlook inside despite all. He continued to be a kind and caring person.

Percy was finally taken in by Paul and adopted.
No more alone travel.

The cat couldn’t be happier that Percy quickly became Paul’s “purrfect” co-pilot on his lengthy journeys. The cute cat was happy to go on any journey, long or short, in any kind of weather, and he was always there to travel with his new human dad.
Paul posted on Facebook, “He’s really friendly and loves to crawl on my lap, up my chest, and then rub cheeks with me.

He enjoys playing. He purrs a lot. He loves to eat and sleep since, of course, he is a cat.

 

Paul also cherished photographing his kitty companion and made it a practice to post them on social media. Percy quickly gained a sizeable following online, and they all like his inherent charm.

Unlucky thing happened.
Paul saw that the passenger window was down when he awoke in February 2017 at dawn. He immediately thought of Percy, who was subsequently nowhere to be seen.

He had experienced the same thing in the past, usually when a bird was outside. But things were different then.

Paul attempted to contact him and also looked about the vicinity of the rest break. Sadly, despite his best attempts, Percy remained inside.

A storm was predicted to arrive that day, which only served to worsen the situation.

Paul announced that Percy was missing on social media after realizing that he had run out of alternatives and needed assistance from the public.

Many offered to assist Paul in his hunt, but Paul simply couldn’t hold out any longer.

He was aware that every minute counted in finding his cat and performing his duties as a driver.

“I operate a company vehicle… And I promised to have it delivered by such-and-such a time when I signed on the dotted line. I am unable to stay if I so choose,” he stated.

Paul was compelled to leave to carry out his obligations under his employment. He struggled to decide between being Percy’s father and a full-time truck driver.

He traveled 400 miles to complete two deliveries when all of a sudden, a miracle occurred!

Percy, a stray cat smeared in grease, emerged from under his truck!

He appeared to be both very hungry and really worn out. Paul took care of his cat right away after it went missing. Paul promised himself he would never lose track of his cat again after that terrifying episode.

It’s good to live alone sometimes because you can do things your way, but if I were alone, I wouldn’t be laughing like this, I thought as I laughed at one of his pranks the other day. Paul remarked, “Percy is healthy for my spirit and soul.

Paul and Percy’s friendship is something we want to see more of in the future. Their friendship is unique and deserving of being spread to the rest of the globe.
