The stowaway kitten is safe despite taking a hair-raising 85-mile ride from Mill Valley across the Golden Gate Bridge in a van's engine compartment. Santa Cruz County Animal Shelter spokesman Todd Stosuy says the 8-month-old feline was probably just looking for a warm place to sleep. The shelter is trying to locate the owner.
