Cat Man



So this video has been making its way around the net lately. It shows a policeman at a traffic stop being accosted by a rather friendly cat who decides to take all sorts of liberties with the policeman.

Well I saw the Scarborough equivalent on Saturday. On my way up the street, saw a rather disheveled looking older man ahead of me making strange hand signals at a passing fire engine. First thought was mental illness, let me keep far from him but since he was heading the same direction as me I had to pass him.

Old dirty army green coat half off, pants sagging and as I got closer I got the shock of my life. What I had assumed was the black liner of a hoodie on the jacket was actually a large black tabby perched nonchalantly around old boys neck and shoulders just sitting there as calm as can be like this was the norm with his tail occasionally flicking. Strangest thing I've seen in a while. Must be nice to travel all relaxed on someone's shoulders like that.

I wonder if thats an option I can look into with these rising TTC fares. I dont weigh much, any volunteers?

I knew a cat that rub up heself good and proper on a policeman foot, if you see how the policeman VEX.

That cat collar makes a lot of sense, the PETA people can't attack the man and say how he kill animal to wear 'round he neck. And is a good way to keep warm eh?
