Details are a bit sparse on this one right now, but a couple weeks back (Friday, June 17th to be exact), a Milwaukee area couple called 911 to report that they were being held hostage…by their cat.

“This is going to sound like a strange question, but we have a cat and it’s going crazy and it’s attacked my husband, we’re kind of hostages in our own house.

“We’re just wondering who we should call to do something, get rid of the cat, or help us.”

No one was hurt in the incident…except maybe the cat, who was turned over to Milwaukee Area Domestic Animal Control Commission (MADACC). And before you PETA folks get all mad and threaten to burn down the MADACC, that’s rampant speculation on my part–for all I know, they sent little Garfield on to terrorize another family.
