Cat rings 999 and cops kick a door in
Cat rings 999 and cops kick a door in

By VERONICA LORRAINE

Published: 27 Jul 2009

A CAT sparked a full-scale emergency after stepping on a phone and dialling 999.

Watson, a one-year-old Bengal, pawed the handset and then somehow hit the redial button FOUR times.

Worried cops raced to the address and spotted a smashed vase when they peered through a window.

Fearing a burglary they broke down the door.

Owner Lauren O'Shea, 23, an animal nursing assistant, said: "A friend saw all commotion at my flat and called me.

"I hurried round there and the police told me they thought there had been a burglary.

"I immediately said, 'I bet it was the cat'. When we first moved in he would play a lot with the phone."

12. Well this is America and it is the police's God given right to tazer anything
that moves or breaths. So the police probably did.

13. Beats my "cat got on the internet" story
My desktop icon for my ISP was highlighted and my cat layed on the enter key enough times to get to my homepage. Luckily I heard the modem and stopped him before he ordered from catnip.com.
