A cat dumped at the side of a busy main road in Cornwall is lucky to be alive, the RSPCA has said.
The animal was found on the A3058 near Newquay by a delivery driver.
She had been left in a plastic box with no ventilation holes which had been sealed shut with parcel tape, so would have suffocated said the RSPCA.
The young female cat has been named Hope by staff at the RSPCA's animal centre at Quoit where she is being looked after.
RSPCA inspector Dave Hobbs said it was a "horribly callous act".
