Who keeps a loaded gun on the counter with the safety off? Was he expecting company?

[Taylor814]

NO KITTY, NO!!! That's my meat pot pie!!!

[Lonesome in Massachussets]

And clean the litter box every hour!

How 'bout I put a 6'x 6' x 1' sandbox in the basement?

Problem with this story is that it can't happen. There is no way a modern 9mm goes off by being dropped. 0ther than taking the saftey off and squeezing the trigger.

I love that photo! As soon as I learn some more computer skills, I'm getting my kitties a weapon!

Good point. Sumptin' ain't right.

Every sane person understands that a cat would kill and eat its 'owner' if the cat was big enough, so learning to use firearms (maybe from hunter safety videos?) is just the next logical step. No one said cats aren't smart.

[ValerieUSA]

Someone else shot him and the cat is being blamed... like the dog gets blamed for stinky flatulence. We know it was YOU.

When dealing with guns and cats at the same time, always remember one end is the human end and the other end is for the cat.

[Junior]

Damn cats. I know my two would love to off me in my sleep. I can see it in their evil little eyes. Fortunately, they don't have opposable thumbs...

[teenyelliott]

Perhaps the guy was a troll. Kitties are very smart, you know.

[expatpat]

Did the cat escape?

[Holicheese]

Good on you.
If you had really thought it through, you should have come to the Boston area and walked your cat over a man hole cover.
The family who's dog was electrocuted by the man hole cover is suing for $740,000.
I bet for a cat you could have gotten at least $75,000 and Sylvester would never have seen it coming.

Article doesn't say it was "modern". Coulda been a Luger for all we know.

[Holicheese]

I get pretty upset when I over cook my minute egg too but I think this is over kill.

[joesnuffy]

Moral of the story...when you switch to a cheaper brand of cat fud...

Keep your weapons secured at all times

[TXBSAFH]

I read it was a glock. They do not just go off, this guy was having a stupid moment and paid for it.

[Cinnamon Girl]

I always believed that cats would use guns if they could.

[tuffydoodle]

I've seen teenage boys spit lugers. Or did they call them loogies?
