Traffic stop saves cat from owner’s plate
The Buffalo News ^ | August 10, 2010 | Lou Michel

Buffalo police rescued a cat from a Cheektowaga man who apparently was planning to make a meal out of his pet because he thought it was ill-tempered, authorities said Monday.

When Ferry-Fillmore District officers pulled over a car driven by Gary L. Korkuc on Sunday night during a traffic stop, they said they heard a cat crying from inside the trunk and investigated.

What they found has left animal lovers at the SPCA Serving Erie County in shock.

The cat, according to police, was in a cage “marinating” in a mixture of crushed red peppers, chili pepper, salt and oil.

Silly man.

You’re supposed to dress the animal out before marinating.

This sounds like mental illness to me. I hope they check this guy out very carefully.

Red peppers and Chili for a cat? That’s sick, everyone knows you use mint and a bit of thyme for feline.

Wow - right here in Buffalo, NY!

I didn’t think anyone here knew anything about fine cuisine

Heck, I'm not a cat person either, but...

Also, the cat must have been doing its business in the marinade as well. Not very well thought out on the part of the chef.

That’s what I was thinking too.

“He claims he did not want the cat because it was ‘possessive, greedy and wasteful.’ That the cat got pregnant after ‘spaying,’ even though it was a neutered male. “

I like mine with a nice raspberry/chipotle glaze. But that’s just me.

I think that they need to start checking if any other animals, or heaven forbid, any children near this nut have disappeared.

That's a pretty good definition of felinity in general.

I’m kind of curious how he got the cat into the marinade.

I’d think an attempt to do so would be an excellent way to lose a lot of skin.

Since the cat was in a cage it probably had little choice as to where it was sitting.

I prefer mine with rice, vegetables, and soy sauce.

Thank you. It disgusts me almost as much as reading about this lunatic to read the lame jokes that people seem to need to post about animals in distress.

you don’t have to be a cat lover to be shocked and horrified by this story. And everyone should realize that many serial killers begin their sick endeavors by torurting and killing animals.

Wanton cruelty to any living creature is an affront to our Creator.

I don’t understand the juvenile jokes either when this man appears to have lost reality somewhere and seems to be a danger to the helpless. I guess some “freepers” think juvenile humor is worthy of adult conversation and have missed the obvious mental health issues.
