Apocalypse Meow
Meow. A district judge in Pennsylvania has been asked to decide whether that word is a harmless taunt or grounds for misdemeanor harassment.
Police charged a 14-year-old boy for "meowing" whenever he sees his neighbor, 78-year-old Alexandria Carasia. The boy's family and Carasia do not get along. The boy's mother said the family got rid of their cat after Carasia complained to police that it used her flower garden as a litter box.
The boy testified Tuesday that he only meowed at the woman twice. Carasia testified, "Every time he sees me, he meows."
The boy's attorney, David Martin Jr., asked for a dismissal. "This is not something that police should be wasting their time with or wasting the court's time."
District Judge Joseph DeMarchis will wait 90 days. He said his decision will be based on how the boy and his neighbor get along in the meantime.

If MY parents got rid of my cat just because of some old bitchy neighbor biddy, I think I'd have justifiable cause to kill them while they slept, that's what -I- think.
Of course, all pet cats should be kept indoors for their health and to avoid this sort of nonsense.
Like there aren't more important things to worry about like violence. Sometimes I hate old people. Well...mostly I hate them. I'm mean like that!
Cheryl-
LOL! No shit. What kind of pussified parents does this kid have anyway? Besides, that's just the risk you take when you make the choice of having an outdoor pet. Animals are animals and are gonna do shit (no pun intended). I'd understand if it was a dog dumping someone's garbage, etc., but a cat taking a dump in someone's flower bed? Does this woman have nothing better to do? Is she really monitoring her flower beds that vigilantly? Does she not realize that SHE may actually have to take steps to deter the cat from doing this? Jesus Christ. Some people just need to be put out of their misery.
Terri-
TELL ME ABOUT IT! That's exactly what I was thinking. "Wait?" For what? To see how much ass they can kiss in 90 days? Fuck that! People like this old bitch aren't gonna change, so why should the other people be expected to? Like most old people with too much time on their hands, she needs to get a fuckin life, hobby, job, something. Whatever it takes to keep the cat's bowel movements from preying on her mind. Idiot.
Thanks for taking the time to comment! :)
Mon-
We should start a club. I mostly hate them too (99% of the time). I can't tell you how many times I've seen my next door neighbor (90-something) deliberately manipulate friends/family/store clerks, etc. into doing something for her with her "I'm old" routine. Get a load of THIS:
She actually called the fire dept. under the guise of "thinking" she smelled gas, only to have them change out the batteries in her smoke alarms (FOC) and install more (also FOC). Must be nice! She pulls this helpless routine all the time and it usually WORKS. And trust me, she's anything but helpless. She manages to do anything/everything SHE WANTS when she WANTS to. Grrrr
Thanks for commenting and fostering my desire to begin work camps for the elderly. ;)
If *I* lived next door to the bitch, the cat wouldn't be the ONLY one taking a dump in her flower garden!
Maybe I'm missing something.. but if someone complained about my cat shitting in their flower beds (she wouldn't, she's an indoor cat), I'd charge them for fertilizer.
John-
LMAO! I was thinking the exact same thing. As a matter of fact, a friend of mine said "Oh, the old flaming bag of poo trick, huh?" And I was like "sans the bag and flames." LOL! Biddies like this are a dime a dozen. Trust me, I know. I love next door to one. Oy...
Thanks for commenting! :)
Soren-
No kidding! What's the big deal? Is she sleeping there too? People like this are in serious need of a life. And the scary thing is, I'm sure someone out there agrees with HER!
Thanks for the comment! :)
