Lets not lose track of the REAL news...
When Tabbies Attack


FAIRFIELD, Conn. (AP) -- Residents of the neighborhood of Sunset Circle say they have been terrorized by a crazy cat named Lewis.

Lewis for his part has been uniquely cited -- personally issued a restraining order by the town's animal control officer.

``He looks like Felix the Cat and has six toes on each foot, each with a long claw,'' Janet Kettman, a neighbor said Monday. ``They are formidable weapons.''

The neighbors said those weapons, along with catlike stealth, have allowed Lewis to attack at least a half dozen people and ambush the Avon lady as she was getting out of her car.

Some of those who were bitten and scratched ended up seeking treatment at area hospitals.

Animal Control Officer Rachel Solveira placed a restraining order on him. It was the first time such an action was taken against a cat in Fairfield.

In effect, Lewis is under house arrest, forbidden to leave his home.

Solveira also arrested the cat's owner, Ruth Cisero, charging her with failing to comply with the restraining order and reckless endangerment.

Why isn't Homeland Security taking care of issues like this?

1. That cat is a menace!
I think the good citizens of Fairfield should bust out the torches and pitchforks and take matters into their own hands.

2. Fairfield was also the home of my 35-lb. striped buddy Winston
his human, Suz, always assumed that his only offspring were with Samantha (Merri and Pippin!) -- but now I'm not so sure... the sure way to tell would be to see if Lewis eats broccoli like Winston did. Seriously.

3. OMG! Homeland Security is certainly falling down on the job!
What is wrong with those people? Don't they recognize a real threat when they see it?

:rofl:
