This is so sad. No one complained, why do it ? Something
tells me the new town marshall just didn't like cats.

Cat Evicted From Town's Police Office
Feline Put Up For Adoption

POSTED: 9:57 am EST January 22, 2005

BROOKLYN, Ind. -- A cat named Cat has been evicted from the town's police department.

Some people might be allergic to the cat and others might not want to have a cat around when they visit the police department, town Marshal Don Pearson said.

Pearson's predecessor, Terry Carlyle, said he brought Cat into the police department in the town about 15 miles southwest of Indianapolis when he took the marshal's job about five years ago.

Cat had the run of the police office, greeted people when they came in, kept mice out of the building and served as the department's mascot, he said.

Carlyle, who is now a deputy marshal, said he already has two large dogs at his house and he could not take Cat home.

Carlyle said taking Cat to the Morgan County Humane Society Animal Shelter in Martinsville for adoption was one of the hardest things he's ever done.

"It broke my heart," Carlyle said.

THAT absolutely disgusts me!!! I hope Cat gets a wonderful furrrever home. May the fleas of 1,000 camels infect Marshall Pearson's short and curlies and his arms to short to scratch!!!

Too funny Donna, but I have to agree. I also hope word of this gets out to the locals and the "Marshal" is booted out at the next election. If Marshals are even elected.....

Anyway, what a creep.

no elections for marshall pearson- can this be sent to him? I'll bet if it was a dog or a child..... different ending....

[Medusa]

I agree that, if it was a dog, it probably would've ended differently. There are some people (and I've had experience w/some vets, too) who just don't like cats. Maybe Cat is better off because now he can find a permanent, loving home.
