Vicious Cat

Since we have sold the cottage we had to call and cancel the insurance. Which led to a review of our policy.

C tells me that the insurance company wanted to know if our cat is known for aggressiveness. I wish I had been the one to get that question because I would have asked for more info. We already have liability - please don't tell me that there is extra needed for if I have a nasty cat! Do we get a reduction in our premium since she is declawed*? Just how many claims do they have on this?

Now for my story.

My grandparents were given a cat to care for while the owner was away. According to the story I have received the cat was insane. It literally climbed up the walls via the curtains, and would attack people. Apparently the cat did not let up on his difficult behaviour and my grandfather had no choice but to help the cat along to a better place. This sounds completely bizarre and out of character for my grandfather - so either the cat was truly dangerous or there is something wrong with the story. Anyway, the person was told that the cat ran away. But the neighbourhood dog dug the cat up so the lie was exposed. I don't make this stuff up.

* before you get your knickers in a knot, please know that we got her from the shelter already sans claws.
