I just love the oddly enough section. Its amazing what throwback news you will find. Its sometimes a nice break from the cold reality of the world. Here is one for example.

LONDON (Reuters) - The owners of a cat trapped for a week in the home of a vacationing neighbor have been pushing ice cubes and cat food through the letter box to keep their pet -- named Lucky -- alive.



The Daily Express newspaper Monday said the black-and-white cat was spotted fast asleep in the neighbor's house after she went missing from her home near Bristol, southwest England.


"I just hope our neighbor has gone away for a week and not for months," owner Tracey Venables, 31, told the newspaper.


Venables said it was likely Lucky had slipped into the neighbor's house unnoticed before the man headed off on holiday ahead of the Easter weekend.


Police have told Venables they are powerless to release her errant cat.


"It's absolutely infuriating because she is so close but we cannot get to her," said the mother-of-two, who added she would break in should Lucky show any signs of ill health.


"I don't care if I get arrested."

Even tho it's their cat, putting ice cubes and cat food through the slot seem like home invasion, and if the vacationing neighbor wanted to press charges, I believe that he/she could. I believe the neighbor should get a monetary award for the damage that the cat does to their home. People need to keep their animals away from other people' property.

Do you have a link for this?
