Cat Forum / Cat Anecdotes / April 2004Cat Gives Birth...
...on police officer's lap! This story was on my local news this morning. If I see it in an online newspaper I'll post the URL. In the meantime, the report was that a police officer was sitting in his patrol car when a cat jumped through the window. He shoo'd the cat out, but she jumped back in. He decided that if she wanted in so badly she could stay, and drove off on patrol with her curled up in his lap. He pulled another car over in a traffic stop, and as he started to get out of his patrol car he realized that the cat in his lap was giving birth! Three kittens were born by mama, and the officer is said to be considering adoption. They did show the mama and her babies on TV, I hope her hoomins (if any) will see and claim her!

It sounds like she would have a wonderful home with that officer. A mama cat that close to givin birth should have been in a clean, *indoor,* protected environment. That, alone, would cause me think that she wasn't being well-cared-for. MaryL Amazing! What a great story! Thanks.

Here's a link to this story from a local TV station's website. There's a video of the entire report (including introduction and "newsanchor happy chat" about it afterward) and a text w/photos version too: http://abclocal.go.com/wls/news/041404_ns_catdelivery.html This link is for a different TV station's report (video only). The info presented is quite different from the above ABC affiliate's report. The link is currently on the right side of the page in the Feedroom Video section, headlined "Cop Serves And Protects Felines" (click the Send Video button to start playback): http://www.nbc5.com/news/index.html Jeanne Hedge, as directed by Natasha http://www.jhedge.com >> ...on police officer's lap! >> [quoted text clipped - 32 lines] > > http://www.jhedge.com Heh. Well clearly there are three kittens in the one video, so the other station is just a little off :) Makes you wonder about other news doesn't it!

Thanks for sharing that. I had to pass it on to one of my friends with a pregnant poodle.

Tops the time a different cat had her kittens on my bed - while I was in it.

LOL Little Bit might have had her little ones on me while in bed, but she woke me up walking around on top of me. I got up and tried to convince her to have them in the nice box I had fixed up. She refused to use the box, but was content to have them in the closet as long as I laid there and watched.

It's sweet that he's considering adoption (of one kitten, all, the mom cat?). What an amazing story. Lucky break for the driver he was pulling over, too. :) Joyce |
