June 3, 1941

June 3, 1941 was the wedding date for Irving Wallace and Sylvia Kahn. Their children included David Wallechinsky and Amy Wallace who, in the Book of Lists, would list the 9 longest journeys cats took, on their own, to return to their owners. The list starts with Sugar, who traveled to her owners new home by herself, a 1500 mile trip, and (this with a bad hip,) and ends with Muddy Water White, who traveled 450 miles, to catch up with his owner, after having escaped during a trip.
