The law was called by locals on a cat sitting in a tree, and appearing to be armed with an "assault rifle".



And no, it's not from The Onion. The story is from MSM. I ran across it by accident and thought it was funny. I figured I would share in case anybody needed a good laugh.

It's still fake though. The police put it up as a joke, and MSN omitted this fact for better clickbait.

There is no such thing as a hobby without politics. "Leave politics at the door" is itself a political statement, an endorsement of the status quo and an attempt to silence dissenting voices.

Felines don't pussyfoot around, and they have purrfect aim. I'd be a scaredy cat too if I saw that and would call the cops without paws for thought while I turned tail and ran, hoping kitty wouldn't take meowt before I got to safety.

They had to shoot the cat nine times to make sure it was no longer a threat.

Adrift within the vortex of my imagination.

Anyone missed this bit:

".....Police turned up with dogs...."

Feline scum could tell that the local law enforcement personnel were under correct supervision and quietly gave himself up.

Feline scum know and lament that most sensible humans have wisely aligned themselves with team dog. Multiple dogs turned up on site to make sure that rescuing human law enforcement personnel were not hoodwinked into thinking the deceptive feline horror is 'cuter' than it actually is.

All in all this was an acceptable counter of an attempted infiltration of law enforcement community, by a feline, for the purpose of corrupting vulnerable human law enforcement personnel into switching allegiance to realign themselves more closely to policy approved by the feline menace.

We can mark this one as solved, happy tailwaggings all round I say.


n'oublie jamais - It appears I now have to highlight this again.

It is by tea alone I set my mind in motion. By the juice of the brew my thoughts aquire speed, my mind becomes strained, the strain becomes a warning. It is by tea alone I set my mind in motion.

The war between Cats and Dogs will never be truly won until one side figures out how to use a door handle.

George could open latch doors. We had dobermans that just ate through the door. Does that count?
