Texan Cat Lady’s Cats Escape on Interstate in South Dakota
A Texas women who was transporting 20 cats loose in her Plymouth Neon was pulled over by police as she entered South Dakota because of the driving hazard posed by her feline passengers. But that’s not the story. While she was stopped on the shoulder of I29, four of her cats escaped, and policemen had to jump into cat herder mode to round them up. Here’s the video:
Fortunately, the escapees were rounded up successfully and she was not cited.
Whew, that was close! Good thing those kitties got captured before they got hit by a car!
Whew! I was worried!
I hope she got where she was taking them safely and will get some carriers and maybe rent a van or truck for the next family trip =)
Dang. Hasn’t that woman heard of PTUs? I’m glad no kitties were harmed in the making of that videotape…or afterwards, it seems.
Fur sure good thing nothing bad happened to those kitties! But I disagree with the law enforcement that didn’t cite her, at the very least a warning. I wish a rescue group or shelter representative would’ve seen this and given her a word or two. Whether a cat is friendly, feral or shy they should ALWAYS be in carriers when traveling. You may believe you have your driving under control regardless, but you cannot control other drivers or troubles in the road that can cause accidents.
