Alyson M. Savage, 22, of Port Hadlock, was driving southbound with passenger Dana L Kavanagh, 21, of Trout Lake, on SR 19 when a cat she was transporting jumped on her, causing her to lose control of her Volkwagen Golf, and slid into the northbound lane, according to a State Patrol report.
Savage’s vehicle hit a Toyota Celica, driven by Robert C. Laford, head-on, the report said.
