Crazy Cat Terrorizes Connecticut Town



FAIRFIELD, Conn. - Residents of the neighborhood of Sunset Circle say they have been terrorized by a crazy cat named Lewis. Lewis for his part has been uniquely cited, personally issued a restraining order by the town's animal control officer.

"He looks like Felix the Cat and has six toes on each foot, each with a long claw," Janet Kettman, a neighbor said Monday. "They are formidable weapons."

The neighbors said those weapons, along with catlike stealth, have allowed Lewis to attack at least a half dozen people and ambush the Avon lady as she was getting out of her car.
Some of those who were bitten and scratched ended up seeking treatment at area hospitals.
Animal Control Officer Rachel Solveira placed a restraining order on him. It was the first time such an action was taken against a cat in Fairfield.

In effect, Lewis is under house arrest, forbidden to leave his home.
Solveira also arrested the cat's owner, Ruth Cisero, charging her with failing to comply with the restraining order and reckless endangerment.

Good idea to go after the owner too - she could at least have the cat's claws trimmed. Odd for a cat to go after people! Usually they settle for dogs when they feel they have the upper paw.

I saw this on the news too. That's some cat alright. I'm surprised someone hasn't popped it by now, that's what would happen out here.

P. S. SherryGrace do you know Lewis?

Sounds like he could be one of SG's ex-boyfriends. He lost his mind when she dumped him.
