One of the yard cats in the neighborhood apparently thought he (or she) found a new home on the spare wheel, safely protected from harm.



Not sure how long this cat had made the spare wheel his home but I can't remember seeing any cat come and go from the truck while at work or at home. Never heard meows or other cat sounds either; never knew a cat made his home on my spare wheel.



So as I was leaving town for a trip; the hideaway cat was along for a ride too. While stopped at a light, another motorist motioned to roll down my window and told me a black cat tumbled out from the below back end of the truck. First, I thought it wasn't possible but then he said it again. That would explain why he suddenly jerked his truck over to the other lane a few miles back. As for the tumbling cat, I doubt he survived at that speed but the other motorist mentioned he saw the cat doing a few lopsided cartwheels and a hard bounce before he passed it.

 

yet another reason why the government needs to enforce a leash on cats also

 

Its bad luck for a black cat to cross paths with a motorist

 

When I was in elementary my dad was going to give me a ride to school. We got in our 72 Ford Country Squire wagon and when he cranked the engine we heard the most blood chilling meow ever. Turns out a stray cat would stay warm every night by sleeping in the fan shroud. The fan broke his back and tore him up pretty bad. Luckily a cop was passing by when it happened so he called some one to pick it up.

 

But if there was a leash, he would be pulling him along... that would be like skinning him with pavement

 

cats, the other white meat.

 

More than likely he was already on his death bed. Most cats look for a hideaway when they know they are coming to the end of their lives. One things for sure it had class!!

 

Well that's sad

 

I opened this up thinking you took a Cat off your truck and there was gonna be a video clip of it. Wrong cat though.

I don't really care for cats, but that is kinda sad.

 

No, it was probably sleeping there. While that is true, you must not know much about animals.

 

Cats... I'm a dog type of person and just don't care for cats that much. A dog has no need to climb up in something or nest
