Incontinent Cat Wins Prize for Owner

Transit Systems, Inc. announces winner of "Smooth Mover" sweepstakes to entrant who submitted a "best moving tip" regarding her incontinent cat.

An Illinois woman and her nervous cat won a $50.00 Visa® Gift Card when stress caused a "wetness" problem - for the cat, not the woman.

The $50.00 prize was awarded by Transit systems, Inc., a nationwide provider of shipping and moving services. Visitors to the company's Facebook page were asked to share moving tips and stories. The winning "tip" came from Eve - the woman, not the cat. To quote Eve:

"Do not - NOT - take your cat out of its carrier to comfort it in the parking lot of the title company before the closing, no matter how frightened and shaking it seems. It will [urinate] on you. However, that does make everyone move very quickly at the signing."

Since many moves involve closing on the new home, the tip was eligible for the random drawing that determined the winner. And thus Eve has extra cash to use on cat food and cat litter, or perhaps to pay off dry cleaning bills.

The month-long contest garnered hundreds of submissions from the mundane to the serious to the slightly wacky. One person cautioned against drinking before all items are moved into the house - she discovered the pitfalls of that mistake when she woke up the next morning tofind furniture and boxes scattered on her front lawn.

Other submissions offered packing tips (use clothes and blankets for padding to save on packing material), planning (always make a list of tasks to be completed), and hospitality toward the moving crew (drinks and snacks will keep them happy, hydrated and moving faster.)
