A vessel in the Gateway Clipper fleet hosted an unexpected furry passenger on Sunday.

Workers on The Empress found a bobcat aboard the boat Sunday morning, just before passengers were scheduled to board, according to the Post-Gazette.

Pittsburgh animal control officers safely captured the wild cat and plan to release it in a wildlife center in Verona.
