Is this your cat? If a cat ever goes nuts in my house, I won't call the police to come and deal with it. I'll (gladly) take care of it myself.

While it ran wildly around the interior of the brick bungalow, the cat continued shrieking and began defecating throughout the home.

It thought it was a dog.

Sounds like it could have ingested something while in the basement.

I'll bet there was BLEACH around that basement somewhere. It must go straight to their brains. They have an intensely intricate sense of smell and bleach makes 'em crazy and mean.

DO NOT TRY THIS AT HOME. :o)

As the constable entered the home, the cat ran up the stairs and stared the officer down.
Speaking to The Intelligencer on condition of anonymity, the constable said...

Wotta pussy.

LOL! ALL cats display bizarre behavior. I tolerate my daughter's. Everything is a curiousity to the stupid thing. I don't let it in the bathroom with me anymore. Don't ask me why - I just don't.

Poor cat, but there was another story of a cat going bonkers and nearly killing 2 elderly people awhile ago. I forget the details, but sometimes they can go real nuts.

Mine's a little crazy, but lovable as all heck. If she went nuts like this, I'd leave the house and see if she got over it later.

Sounds like the cat was first run over by a semi truck then placed in a old indian burial ground for pets, brought back home by the father with no mention to the rest of the family regarding the semi-truck incident. Hehe...

I shot a pit bull that was attacking its owner, but never had to face this. I wouldn't have hesitated, of course, but would have dreaded the headlines.
