Do we know that's what happened? It's what I assumed, but I hadn't followed this story until the article popped up on Ars, so I'm curious if there are more details.

Short of it: cat in carrier in car; driver drove off, only responded hours later; cat found days later not in carrier covered in fleas. The cat did not let itself out of the car or carrier so the driver must have, as they have no other excuse.
