Last Saturday, Palash Pandey took his cat, Tux, to a pet hospital. His cat was ill.

Pandey and Tux took a taxi. Pandey was sitting behind the driver. The cat was sitting next to the driver. When they arrived at the hospital, Pandey got off from the taxi and started walking to get the cat. But before Pandey could open the front door, the driver started driving. Pandey ran behind the car and shouted, but the driver drove off.

Pandey tried his best to contact (联系) the driver. But there was no answer. He also called the police and turned to the Internet for help. About three hours after Pandey called the police, the driver called Pandey. But the driver said he knew nothing about the cat.

On Monday morning, Tux was found.
