Yes, and sadly, it was probably taken there by an idiot intent on dumping the poor cat. Hopefully someone rescued it before it was harmed.
Since this kind of thing happens at least once every year, youād think these stadiums would have an SOP for dealing with the situation. Instead, every time they are fully unprepared and attempts to catch the animal with bare hands.
Iām not sure if they have better options. A long handle with a net may be a better SOP (Iām honestly not sure whatād be better for the cat), but Iām 99% certain it wonāt look like a better procedure, and whatever team / stadium catches a cat this way would be in for a lot of criticism and attacks, unfair or not.
hotdogs and beer
Eh, my cats have had many, many opportunities to sip of beer or whisky or other alcohol. They never have, and itās not from shyness - Iāve caught them lapping water out of my glass more than a few times. Never happened with beer.
but Iām 99% certain it wonāt look like a better procedure
If itās only about the optics, at least they can put on some protective gloves when trying to catch these animals, be it squirrels, raccoon, badgers, cats, or whatever.
I prefer the āMa, Auntie Carol is here!ā
Our beloved cat whopper was 10kg at one point
And he walked on a leash but only when he wanted to
When he didnāt ?
Iām
Purposely nagging the heck out of him though to get his reaction
Usually I just let him be for five mins and then he will jump
Back up
Some relatives of mine have a St Bernard, which is known to decide half way through a walk that its time to quit.
Makes me think of a mix between the Old Testament, the Apocalypse of John and a tale by the Grimm brothersā¦
āAnd the giant came across me, his feet on my right and on my left, and I saw his shoes were made of the heads of those who had come before me.ā
Just when you were making progressā¦
