Lewis The Attack Cat Back In The News
Blue Crab Boulevard brought you the riveting story of Lewis, the attack cat from Fairfield, Connecticut previously. Well Lewis is back in the news. It seems neighbors have filed charges since Lewis has attacked at least a half a dozen people, including the famed ambush of the Avon lady. Lewis' owner was willing to put the cat on probation and send him for accelerated rehabilitation. But one of Lewis' victims said she would only agree to probation if Lewis was put to death. Which kind of defeats the purpose, now doesn't it?
Anyway, they're selling "Save Lewis" T-shirts to raise money for a defense fund. No word on whether the Avon lady bought one.
Funniest bit in the story: "The neighbors said Lewis' long claws, along with catlike stealth, have allowed the cat to attack at least a half dozen people and ambush the Avon lady as she was getting out of her car." Just out of curiosity, what other kind of stealth would Lewis have?

Good catch on the adjective snafu! The new journalism, I guess.
