Yes, I had nothing better to do this afternoon than to chase down a clue I got from a QI post on Twitter.

I found it hard to believe that this woman drove that far with 15 untethered cats. I once learned the hard way that even one cat not in a carrier is bad news when driving. You know where they want to be? Right under your driving foot, that's where.

wow... I have no words
Thanks for sharing this!

When I was a teenager I used to have the cat on the back seat on a lead when we went to visit our relatives for a few weeks. She liked to look out of the window.

Wow indeed...

That is next level cat hoarding...

Perfect conclusion to the Entry - the defendant was not an unsympathetic character, but the cats definitely needed more than just 1/21th of a Dodge Neon, affection notwithstanding... smiley - cat

This morning our cat has brought in two birds into the house, and we've had at least five birds a week for the last few weeks. So if you have 15 , how many birds do they bring into the car per week?smiley - yikes*

*Assuming they are allowed out of the car...?

There will be at least one that ignores birds. That's just statistics. smiley - laugh That one, however, will make it up in the volume of voles it catches. smiley - winkeye

By the way, that's why my two cats are indoor kitties. The biggest excitement they've had lately was when a chipmunk got into the house. They chased it to the window in my office - where it became trapped between the double glazing and the window screen. The in-laws had to drive into town with a ladder to free the rodent.

Brother-in-law on phone: 'Is it moving around now?'

Me: 'No. It's frozen in terror.'

The kitties slaughter all moths, stink bugs, and assorted aerial insects they find. They are welcome to them.

Update: The neighbour's cat has just careened into the side porch, slightly stunning itself. It was pursuing a chipmunk. Chipmunks are fast. The cat looked embarrassed. smiley - blackcat
