Cat in Bathtub

Peter Rukavina

From this morning’s Monadnock Ledger-Transcript, dateline Peterborough, New Hampshire:

At 6:45 pm a Riverview Apartments woman reported her cat was in her bathtub dieing and asked police to remove the cat because she was concerned that it wasn’t healthy to have the cat around her children. Sgt. Richard Nelson picked up the cat, took it to the recycling center and disposed of it.

That might be the best combination of pathos and humour I have ever read.
I think it should be nominated for a Pulitzer.
