It comes out of West Valley City, Utah, where a stray cat reportedly survived not just one, but TWO trips into the animal shelter's gas chamber.
The cat, named Andrea, now has a new home.

Coombs plays with her cat, Andrea, at her Syracuse, Utah home, on
Sunday, Oct. 16, 2011. The Utah city may put an end to its gas chamber
after Andrea survived a shelter's two attempts to euthanize her. Animal
shelter volunteers are expected to appear at a West Valley City Council
meeting Tuesday evening to make the case for using lethal injections
instead.

From strong-willed terriers to weirdly obsessed Australian shepherds, they've invaded her world with boundless energy, wet noses, muddy paws and soggy tennis balls. But they've really brought so much more than that -- like laughter and joy, some unexpected life lessons, and more than a few tears along the way.
