Ok, I'm a server at a restaurant, I've worked there off and on since they opened (mostly on), almost five years now. The restaurant is located in our little down town. One building over from us is the Newspaper. The newspaper has this black and white huge cat. He's neutered and pretty well taken care of, except they let him roam around outside. He's a pretty awesome cat though, such a little personalty. He's been around the whole five years, so he must be getting older.
Well, last night we had a large party on our enclosed patio. A little four year old girl was allowed to wander where ever the hell she wanted. She would play with our computers, and just go where she wanted.
When the party was done eating, I was getting ready to go and the little girl was crying and her mom was talking to the manager and a server was on the phone. I overheard stray cat. And I butted in, I said "Are you talking about the black and white cat?" They said "Yes." I said "That's the newspaper cat, he isn't stray." I found out he "bit" the little girl. And the other server was on the phone with the cops. I told them their was no doubt in my mind that he's vaccinated. He just doesn't have a collar because he's outside a lot.
The cops were coming, and I told them they should call Mike. But I was getting mad about this whole thing. I left. I looked for the cat as I was leaving, I was gonna take him home with me and give him back to Mike later. Then maybe they'd think it was another cat.
Here's the thing:
WHO lets their four year old pet a random stray animal?
If she had at least been supervising the girl she could have seen that the cat was getting aggravated and stopped the little girl from petting him, or that the little girl was harrassing him.
I've known that cat for five years, and he does get overstimulated like all cats. But he shows signs before he bites, and he doesn't bite hard. It's like a nip.
And I'm not convinced he did bite her, because when I was leaving I heard the little girl telling the other people in their party that were outside talking that the cat scratched her. And they said "I think he bit you."
I don't know what happened. If Mike can prove he's vaccinated he'll be okay, right??
