Nuts, the Radioactive Cat is on the loose in New Zealand! If spotted do not handle. I love this planet; where else could you get news like this. It all started innocently enough. Nuts, a thirteen year old female cat (is that like 91 in human years?) received a radioactive implant (hey thanks guys) to treat an overactive thyroid.
Well, personally as a cat caretaker (I can't say owner because we're all clear
regarding who's in charge-the cats) I know that didn't set well. I can just see this cat snapping her kitty paws and saying. "oh no, you didn't!" Nuts was then relegated to the garage for quarantine. Well, you can guess what happened. Nuts escaped and is now terrorizing Christchurch, New Zealand. Here's what the authorities said, "put out water, but stay away. Call the vet or the police." Water my ass! I can assure you Nuts is in no mood for water. You'd best be pullin' out all the stops and opening cans of Fancy Feast everywhere. I can't help but side with Nuts on this. She was probably sitting around minding her own cat business when she got jerked up, shoved in a carrier, taken to the vet (known as "Cat Torture Center" in the cat world), drugged, woke up radioactive, then she's shoved in the garage! How much can one cat tolerate before going postal? The good news is that Nuts won't be radioactive forever, just about a week more. That is unless she mutates into a giant radioactive cat the eats everything in her way. Hey, I'm just trying to prepare you for a worst case scenerio.
