Seriously, what do you think would happen to me if I got caught sneaking the Seeing-eye cat with me into someplace? Would you let it slide or am I risking a visit to the cross bar hotel? I've been imagining that the average LEO would let it slide. I may be wrong...... |

This is what my admittedly warped crystal ball tells me...if you were caught sneaking your feline into a locale where pussies were not welcome: As soon as the officer sees the cat and recognizes the clear and present danger, he begins retreating quickly as he jacks a round into the pipe of his Mossberg M590A and shouts a warning to his partner; "Hey...hey! Look out, it's a seeing eye cat!" [shock] When the cat does not retreat and instead tries to rub up against and mark the officer's leg, the officer is FORCED to take defensive action in accordance with department policy and his training and fires two rounds from his shotgun into the fierce animal, ending this incredibly dangerous situation and saving all concerned from certain annihilation. [;D] |
| I'm no LEO, but I know a couple, and I have a feeling that they would let it slide. They'd probally find it funny as hell, and ask you not to do it again. They'd probally tell you to be more sneaky if you do do it again. That is just my thoughts on what would happen. |

In california: The business owner would have to ask you to leave. If you refused the police would ask you to leave. If you continued to refuse, and the business owner was willing to sign an order of arrest, you would be arrested for Tresspassing/interfiering with a business. Animal control would take the cat to Kitty Jail. |

I've been imagining that the average LEO would let it slide. I may be wrong...... LEO's don't give a crap where you take your cat. If the property owner or the person in charge of the propery requests that you take the cat out and you refuse, he will call "the man". If I show up and you have been told to remove the cat from the property by the person in control of the property, well, just be smart and take the cat away, it isn't worth your trouble and I get paid by the hour. I will resovle the situation in favor of the property owners right to refuse anyone access to his property. BTW we are issued Remington 870's not Mossbergs. |

I can just imagine how the call would be dispatched. Dispatcher: Need a unit at Wal-Mart in reference to a male subject with a seeing eye cat refusing to leave the store. Me: Uhh, PD can you repeat that traffic? Dispatcher: Need a unit at Wal-Mart in reference to a male subject with a seeing eye cat refusing to leave the store. Me: I'll be enroute.(while trying not to laugh too hard over the radio) Get to the store and make contact with all involved. Try not to laugh too much. Ask store if they want a criminal trespass warning issued to Piccolo and his cat or do they just want him to take the cat out of the store. Leave. Go back to PD and let the dispatcher know what really happened. Help dispatcher back into the chair after she fell out laughing. Karl |
