Must Have Been Some Cat

No, I’m not turning this into a kitty blog. It’s just that crazy stories have been out there about cats the last couple of days. It started with Oscar the cat, but now we have a story of a crazy man leading cops on a high speed chase near Dallas. He told police that the reason he didn’t stop was that his cat was sick and he was trying to get it to the veterinarian. By the end of the chase the cat had died (although the news reported that it had been dead for some time).

I’ll tell you what though; some people are crazy about their pets. They treat them like humans or better than humans in some cases.

Too bad this guy didn’t have Oscar around to warn him of the deaths of all the other kitties, or maybe that would just have lead to more danger to the public at large by a crazy pet owner.
